Diplomate, American Board of Pediatrics
To My Dear Patient Families,
Effective December 31, 2021, I will be retiring from full-time practice. It has been my pleasure to provide your pediatric and adolescent care and see many patients grow to productive healthy adults, with children of their own. It is not easy for me to announce this decision, but the time has come due to a recently diagnosed medical problem. I will still be around the office to occasionally help out and continue in an administrative role as long as I am able.
Dr. Victor Dalforno founded Waring Court Pediatrics in 1980 and the name was changed to Waring Court Pediatric and Adult Medical Group in 1999. He is a board certified Pediatrician and a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics. He attended medical school at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska and received his M.D. degree in 1969. He did his residency at Highland General in Oakland, California and Oakland Naval Hospital. He was stationed at Camp Pendleton until 1977 when he resigned his commission in the regular Navy and founded El Camino Pediatrics in Encinitas where he was for 2 years prior to moving to Oceanside. Professional associations include Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society, San Diego County Medical Society, and California Medical Association. He was an active member of Tri City Medical Center until this past year. He has been President/CEO of Greater Tri-Cities from 2001 to the present.
He is looking forward to retirement in the near future, but setting a date has been the hardest thing for him to do. He has had a very rewarding career taking care of infants to young adults and seeing them grow and mature. He will continue taking care of all patients currently in his practice but is not accepting new patients.
