We currently operate 12 outpatient clinics serving more than 100,000 patients from diverse backgrounds in the communities of Bellingham, Ferndale, Lynden, Blaine, Mount Vernon and Anacortes.
In addition, we offer a variety of additional services including three urgent care centers, clinic-based behavioral health, care management, sports medicine and laboratory services. Our clinicians vary widely in their practices with some focusing solely on outpatient care while others add some combination of OB care and/or urgent care.
Join our team of independent and dedicated family physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants, while enjoying the healthy lifestyle and endless activities available in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
