About Angelika Buddeberg, MD
Certified by the American Board of Family Medicine Angelika C. Buddeberg, MD was drawn to medicine because of her fascination with how the human body works. Being a doctor must be in the family genes because she is in good company with many physicians and dentists in her extended family.
Dr. Buddeberg received her medical degree from the UCLA Geffen School of Medicine in Los Angeles and completed both her internship and residency at the Kaiser Permanente Medical Centers in California.
Dr. Buddeberg loves to travel, and she considers Munich her second home. She tries to get in a visit to Munich and somewhere in Europe every few years, and still has an Africa Safari on her bucket list. When not working, Dr. Buddeberg is an avid sourdough baker, and has developed several recipes. She enjoys spending time with her daughter and two sons, and she is thrilled that her daughter is planning on going into medicine as an anesthesiologist, and her oldest son hopes to be a psychiatrist. Her younger son is considering a career in computers.
Dr. Buddeberg is thorough, and shows concern for physical, mental, emotional well being. Very easy to talk to and responsive.

Providence PatientBecause of at least one previous life threatening circumstance that led to kidney problems and almost total potassium levels depleted &( hospitalization) from multiple medications prescribed that waste potassium, I double check every prescription and advice given.Dr. Buddeberg has saved my life severe times over the years, with my appendicitis and her arrangements for my immediate surgery and at least one other time. I would have appreciated earlier advice on my frequent occurrences of diarrhea ( instead of laughing at my concerns over black colored stools that turned out to be caused by Pepto Bismol ( why didn't she ask me about diarrhea) Over the past couple of years as my quality of life was poor and resolved after several years of suffering when abdominal pain became so great, I could not stand it. Dr. B sent me to a specialist.Tests and treatment from a specialist as well as self education and diet changes resolved these issues and improved my quality of life immensely.Dr.B's insistence I have my gallbladder removed proved unnecessary by surgeon and specialist.
