Biography

Dr. Nercessian grew up in Glendale, CA. and attended the University of California, Irvine (go Anteaters!) where she earned a Bachelors Degree in biological sciences. A strong interest in preventative, non-invasive forms of medicine led her to Georgetown University where she received her Masters Degree studying physiology and biophysics with a focus on complementary and alternative medicine. 

Traveling further East, Dr. Nercessian concluded her medical school education at A.T. Still University of Health Sciences and completed the clinical portion of medical school in Brooklyn, NY. Her Family Medicine training was undertaken at Inspira Medical Center-Rowan University SOM in Vineland, NJ where she also served as chief resident. Residency training affording her the opportunity and the privilege to look after people living in a socioeconomically underserved area, often providing compassionate care to entire families.

Having become board certified by the American College of Osteopathic Family Physicians, Dr. Nercessian chose to head back home – back out West – where she planted roots with Facey Medical Group at the Valencia location. After serving that community for a number of years, Dr. Nercessian wanted to further provide alternative, preventative forms of healthcare and is now studying for her Institute of Functional Medicine Certification, and providing integrative care to her patients.
