Today’s seniors are retiring on their terms. They’re not just staying active—they’re staying engaged, connected and empowered.
Today’s seniors are retiring on their terms. They’re not just staying active—they’re staying engaged, connected and empowered. For these seniors, Vi at La Jolla Village is the standout choice, not only filled with resort-style amenities and enriching experiences, but home to a thriving social scene in San Diego’s intellectual and cultural epicenter. And with the introduction of Vista 360 Well-Being, a panoramic approach to wellness, residents are more empowered than ever to make the most of every day.

Raising the bar for well-being.
Vi believes that living a better, more fulfilling retirement starts with feeling your best. Brought to life by thoughtfully designed “Signature Experiences,” Vista puts good living at the very center of retirement. Through Vista Explore, residents enjoy curated travel opportunities ranging from trips abroad to behind-the-scenes local experiences. Vista Discover gives residents access to a variety of elevated learning opportunities with experts. And Vista Enrich keeps residents on the forefront of brain vitality with cognitive health training, brain-healthy nutrition, exergaming and more.
At Vi at La Jolla Village, part of Vista Enrich is the innovative and nationally recognized Brain Vitality Studio, an interactive space designed to support cognitive health and physical activity, and just one of the ways Vista incorporates brain health into the community experience. “It’s dedicated to working the brain and body at the same time through ‘exergaming’—the combination of exercise and gaming,” says Mellany Hanson, Lifestyle Director at Vi at La Jolla Village.

More of everything, all within reach.
While Signature Experiences like the Brain Vitality Studio bring well-being into everyday life, there’s no shortage of luxurious creature comforts for residents to enjoy. Whether it’s finding their next read in the library, nurturing their creativity in the art studio, staying active with a morning tai chi class or swimming some laps in the salt-filtered indoor pool, there’s something for everyone. And when it’s time to dine, Vi boasts three newly remodeled restaurants led by Executive Chef Gonzalo Vasquez and his culinary team, ranging from casual to upscale and featuring rotating menus that focus on scratch cooking and brain healthy nutrition using fresh, quality ingredients.
When it comes to new experiences and socializing, residents have endless opportunities to meet and deepen their connections through various clubs, classes and events. Walking San Diego, for example, is a weekly walking club that makes the most of the community’s prime location and California weather by visiting some of San Diego’s best walking trails and attractions. On a typical outing, residents might visit a local coffee shop, check out a museum or stroll along La Jolla Cove, which offers stunning views of the ocean and sunbathing seals.

Freedom to focus on what matters.
By moving to Vi at La Jolla Village, residents get more time to live the good life. Vi’s attentive staff help lighten the load of daily responsibilities, and as a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), Vi makes it easy to plan for future care. With a plan in place, residents can enjoy greater financial predictability that ultimately translates into long-term value. And as their needs change, they have access to on-site assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing and rehabilitation, all without leaving the community grounds.
Good living at the center of everything.
With the reassurance that care is available, Vi residents live their retirement to the fullest and foster deeper connections. Between Vi at La Jolla Village’s panoramic approach to well-being, wide range of amenities, and access to all that San Diego has to offer, residents embrace today with a strong foundation for tomorrow.

The San Diego home remodeling company works on full homes, kitchens, bathrooms, home additions, ADUs, garages, landscapes, and hardscapes.
Most homeowners want two things before they commit to a remodel: a realistic sense of cost and a clear picture of what the finished space will look like. Milan Design + Build helps deliver both through its online remodeling estimator and personalized design consultations, supported by a showroom experience and 3D renderings.
“The online estimate gives homeowners a starting number in about a minute, and the showroom and 3D renderings let them see materials and layouts before anything is built,” says David Noriani, CEO of Milan Design + Build. “Keeping design, permits, and construction with one team helps us manage expectations and keep everyone working toward the same vision.”

Modern design is a particular focus for Milan, with an emphasis on clean lines, natural light, functional layouts, and carefully selected materials. The team adapts each design to the homeowner’s lifestyle and the character of the property. Milan Design + Build combines thoughtful design with construction expertise, creating spaces that are as functional as they are beautiful.
The online estimator covers kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, full-home remodels, and ADU construction. At Milan’s showroom on Carroll Road, visitors can review real materials, finishes, and design options, meet the design-build team, and discuss project scope, budget, and timing. Consultations can also be held virtually for homeowners who prefer to start remotely.
At Milan Design + Build, one integrated team works on the entire project. Design and construction aren’t divided between separate firms. The process begins with a consultation and feasibility review, followed by design, space planning, and 3D renderings developed from detailed measurements and digital scans. The team also coordinates architectural plans, structural engineering, city approvals, and material selection, with construction overseen by a dedicated project manager.
Homeowners can explore their remodeling options, get an initial estimate, or request a design consultation at MilanBuild.com.

Oral oncolytics provide certain patients with effective treatment without IV medication
In the last several years, there’s been a surge in FDA approvals for what’s known as oral oncolytics. Oral oncolytics are targeted cancer therapies that come in tablet, capsule or liquid form that patients can take at home, rather than in an infusion clinic. Scripps physicians have seen exponential growth using this approach, with patients citing convenience as a major quality-of-life enhancement in their cancer treatment. This approach also allows treatments to be customized based on specific genetic mutations and a patient’s unique disease biology. Find out more about oral oncolytics here.

At San Diego Fertility Center, parenthood starts with personalized, cutting-edge care. Nationally recognized physicians offer individualized plans spanning IVF, PGT, egg donation, surrogacy, Gentle IVF, fertility preservation, and LGBTQ+ family building. Newsweek ranked them among America’s Best Fertility Clinics in 2026: top 6% of 450+ clinics nationwide, and best in San Diego.
“Remind yourself you are not alone! You don’t have to have all the answers before you walk through the door,” says Dr. Friedman. “Our job is to listen, explain your options, and guide you toward what makes sense for you. Because fertility care isn’t one-size-fits-all — and building your family should feel like your journey, supported every step of the way.”

At NCCS, both doctors take a personal, traditional approach to cardiovascular care. Patients speak directly with their physicians and build lasting relationships with doctors who know them.
“We became doctors to care for patients, not to run a business,” says Dr. Kabra, who trained in England and the United States and leads the practice’s office-based cardiac care. Dr. Rajamanickam, an interventional cardiologist trained under renowned Dr. Samin Sharma, shares the same philosophy.
Guided by evidence-based medicine, they tailor care to each patient’s unique history, physiology, lifestyle and goals. Both are respected, well-reviewed physicians and four-time Top Doctors.
