Clinical Research Services for Sherman Oaks Residents

Sherman Oaks residents who value staying ahead of the curve in healthcare now have a local partner in clinical research. Valley Family Medicine, your trusted urgent care center based in San Fernando, proudly extends its Clinical Research Services to the Sherman Oaks community. We conduct IRB-approved clinical trials across a broad range of therapeutic areas, offering eligible participants no-cost access to investigational medications, vaccines, and medical devices. Whether you are managing a chronic condition like diabetes or hypertension, or you simply want to contribute to medical progress, call us at 818-774-0955 or walk in to learn about current studies enrolling Sherman Oaks volunteers.

Our clinical research program is built on rigorous safety standards and full transparency. Every study is reviewed by an independent Institutional Review Board (IRB) to protect your rights and well-being. Our experienced team—including certified clinical research coordinators and board‑certified physicians—guides you through every step: initial phone screening, informed consent, baseline medical evaluation, scheduled treatment visits, and follow‑up care. You receive all study‑related services at no cost, including physical exams, laboratory testing (blood work, urinalysis), EKGs, imaging when needed, and the investigational product. Many studies also provide stipends for time, travel, and parking to make participation convenient and stress‑free.

Sherman Oaks residents can join trials addressing conditions that affect our active, health‑conscious community. Our current and upcoming portfolio includes studies for type 2 diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity and weight management, asthma, COPD, osteoarthritis, chronic low back pain, migraine headaches, atopic dermatitis (eczema), psoriasis, and infectious diseases such as COVID‑19, influenza, RSV, and shingles. We also conduct vaccine clinical trials and studies focused on preventive medicine, including cardiovascular risk reduction, non‑alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and metabolic syndrome. By participating, you gain access to potential breakthrough therapies years before they reach the market, while receiving close medical monitoring from our dedicated team.

For research sponsors and contract research organizations (CROs), Valley Family Medicine offers a reliable, patient‑centered site with rapid enrollment, diverse patient populations from Sherman Oaks and the greater San Fernando Valley, and high retention rates. We deliver quality data, strict protocol adherence, and timely adverse event reporting.
