Dr. Brandon Pleman is a family doctor who cares for patients of all ages. He believes that effective care requires treating patients as individuals while recognizing the influences of family and community, and that physical health depends on biological, psychological, social and spiritual wellness. He also believes that teamwork among medical providers is essential to providing the best possible care.

Pleman earned his medical degree at Tufts University School of Medicine, where he also completed a residency in family medicine.

Outside of work, Pleman enjoys spending time with his family. A fan of the Zwift training app, he appreciates the blue skies and open air of the roads and trails of California after seven cold years in Boston.

    It's refreshing to have a primary care physician spend time getting to know my father, build some rapport, and getting a thorough history of his health. I really appreciate the doctors bedside manner and sincere interest in my father. Thank you!

    I was very happy with my visit with Dr Pleman. He was patient, knowledgeable and I am so pleased to have a primary Dr I can trust (so far) as I have not had much luck with my primary physicians in the past (none were UCSF dr's). Very optimistic that I found one to stick with!

    I was taken aback by how well he listened. He was informative, empathetic, and gave me a clear health plan. One of the best doctor visits I've had.

    Dr. Pleman is an exceptional physician. It is clear he closely reviews my records prior to my visit with him. He asks pertinent questions and offers helpful suggestions on my treatment. Best of all, he includes my input and needs into my treatment plan.

    Dr. Pleman is one of the best doctors I have interacted with. He is kind, thoughtful and always explains everything thoroughly.
    May 25, 2024
    I think Dr. Pleman is already too busy, so I probably wouldn't recommend him for that reason ALONE. He seems to be a really good and conscientious doctor. The repeat confirmation of all of my medications is a little annoying.
    May 21, 2024
    Best experience I have had in a doctors office. Dr. really listened and cared.

    Dr. Pleman is very thorough and listens on my concerns knowing I had a friday late afternoon video visit appt he made sure I get my labs done and also made sure if I wasnt able to have it done, to have someone from his clinic to contact me to have it done there. He Made sure to cover all basis and not take It for granted. Reassured me that follow up visit will be scheduled and right after the phone call his team called me to set an appt for it.

    I don't typically enjoy going to the doctors and I will put it off until the very last minute, but Dr. Pleman has been an amazing doctor. He listens to everything I have to say and makes sure to find time to address my issues. He's given me a renewed perspective on seeing a doctor and maintaining my health.
    Apr 12, 2024
    The doctor is already hard to get an appointment with so I won't recommend him to anyone else. If he had plenty of space, I would recommend him.
