RCC: Please share some highlights about your business – unique offerings, employee benefits, community involvement – things you’re proud of that stand out.
Vancouver Clinic offers an integrated care model designed by our doctors and built for our patients. We offer primary and specialty care, help care for patients while they’re in the hospital and help with transition care. We have lab and ancillary services, coordinated through one medical record. We strive to make services accessible, convenient and provide excellent care. We are growing, hiring new providers and finding additional space to meet the needs of a rapidly growing community. We recently partnered with Legacy Salmon Creek developing a resident physician program. (Columbian Story on line). By working closely along side with new physicians, we provide much needed access to patients and we help develop future health care resources in our community. Access and excellent care are key.
RCC: What do you like most about being part of the Ridgefield community? (If you’re located outside of Ridgefield, please talk a little bit about how your business ties into the area).
Our staff and clinicians love working in the Ridgefield Clinic – many of them live in Ridgefield. They are connected through our schools, organizations, activities and events. Our staff LOVE participating in the 4th of July parade because of the chance to connect with people outside of the clinic. They are strongly committed to the health and wellbeing of our community.
