More about Dr. Bonnie Pittaluga, MD

For patient safety, MemorialCare Medical Group providers will not prescribe most controlled substances (including opioids like codeine, and benzodiazepines like valium) for new patients they have only evaluated via telehealth, rather than in person. Many controlled substances have a high potential for abuse, and overdose on controlled substances may result in death. Without an in person visit, the potential risk outweighs the intended benefit. If you believe you may need a prescription for a controlled substance, please schedule an in person visit. Board certified in pediatrics, Dr. Pittaluga entered the field of medicine for her interest in science and to help others. Her favorite aspect of the physician-patient relationship is watching her young patients grow and go through their life experiences with innocence, resilience and imagination. She believes that early patient education and prevention are important components of patient care. In her spare time, she enjoys going to church, reading, hiking and spending time with her family and her dog, Roxy.
