Dr. Charlotte Boehm
Pediatric Physician

Charlotte Boehm, M.D.,
was a graduate of Loma Linda University Medical School.
She held in high esteem Christian and Biblical values and was a long standing member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. In her life and medical practice, she cherished the values of professionality, discipline, kindness, financial responsibility and the spiritual disciplines which differentiated the caring from the careless. It was her desire that these virtues and values be passed on to the next generation. This web site is dedicated to that vision.

Dr. Boehm was born of
German decent. Her family moved to Russia before her birth and experienced the hardships of being strangers on Russian soil.

Out of severe hardship and
persecution, the Boehm family was forced to flee to America, hungry
and nearly penniless,but with a great vision for the future. The values which shaped Dr. Boehm’s life were born in the early years of the 20th Century on the American prairie. Because her values were shaped in “The University of Hard Knocks,” she prized character and diligence above money. The purpose of money was to “replicate itself” and “accomplish good.” She desired to support a strong work ethic.

Her life was a life of dedication to
children. From her pediatric medical office in San Francisco she dispensed not only healing but loving care from 1928 - 1965 and from Corona, CA from 1965 until her retirement.
