Dr. Perla Del Pino-White is a trusted primary care physician and associate medical director at Memorial Primary Care. She has extensive experience caring for patients with high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, thyroid disorders, mental health concerns, and more.
Dr. Del Pino-White takes a whole person-centered approach when addressing patient needs, since depression, anxiety, and social determinants can affect physical problems. “We’re discussing sensitive issues that can include the loss of a job, an abusive relationship, or taking care of an elderly relative. Those are all stressors that may impact current diagnoses or create new physical ailments, so it’s important to recognize and understand these connections as we care for patients.”
Dr. Del Pino-White’s compassion and diligence for patients stems from a love for her community. Born and raised in Miami-Dade County, she understands the ever-growing and culturally changing dynamics of South Florida. A graduate of American Senior High School in Hialeah, Dr. Del Pino-White continued her educational pursuits at the University of Miami and is currently an active volunteer for environmental and youth empowerment-related causes.
