Primary Care Physician

Are you looking for an opportunity to set a new standard for Primary Care, one based on the quality of care, not the quantity of patient visits?  Kinwell is hiring a Family Medicine physician to join our new clinic in East Wenatchee, Washington. We bring agility to work every day and thrive in the opportunity to create something refreshing and new. This is where you come in. 

Kinwell is changing the conversation about healthcare to include wellness and prevention. We are also dedicated to building great places to work, where all teammates are valued and respected. We celebrate diversity of thought, ideas, and cultures--all focused on the common goal of nurturing the health of those we serve.

We’re a startup, determined to change the healthcare experience with more time, less complexity, more comfort, and perhaps most important--a better relationship between patients and their healthcare team. We are leveraging our investment from Washington’s largest not-for-profit health plan, Premera Blue Cross, to create a primary care offering that is holistic, seamless, and care centric.
