About Dr. Lawrence S. Glass, D.O.

Dr. Lawrence S. Glass' life-long interest in medicine began in childhood during his frequent visits to his father's medical office in Gardena, California. As a boy, Dr. Glass' volunteer services at both his father’s clinic and local hospital shaped his decision to enter the healing arts profession.

A native Los Angeles, Dr. Glass graduated from Beverly Hills High School. He attended the University of California at Santa Barbara and received his B.A. Degree in Psychology from the University of California in Los Angeles. His D.O. (Doctor of Osteopathy) was awarded from the College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific (now known as Western University of Health Sciences) in Pomona, California. After graduating from medical school, he completed rotating internships at Burbank Community Hospital in Burbank, California and at the University of Southern California Medical Center in Los Angeles County.

Working as a Family Physician, Dr. Glass specializes in Addiction Medicine and Pain Management. He has since received years of extensive training in both of these fields. Today, Dr. Glass is a leading practitioner and educator in the separate but inter-related fields of Addiction Medicine and Pain Management. His long-term experience in these two overlapping fields offers a unique perspective on meeting the dual needs of patients facing pain and addiction.

In addition, Dr. Glass is currently a Preceptor and Clinical Professor at Western University of Health Sciences in Pomona, California. His Hospital Affiliations include Encino-Tarzana Regional Medical Center, Encino, CA. as well as Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, CA. He is committed to providing not only compassionate, patient-centered care, but also to ensuring that his patients have access to state-of-the-art advances in modern medicine.
