About Us

For more than 50 years, Praxis Health has been building a different kind of healthcare organization — one rooted in meaningful relationships, community connection, and a belief that exceptional patient care begins with supporting the people who provide it. As the Pacific Northwest’s leading independent healthcare network, we are proud to be physician‑led and provider‑centered, preserving the personal side of medicine while thoughtfully embracing innovation and value‑based care.

Our commitment to provider sustainability means fostering a collaborative, supportive environment where clinical excellence, professional fulfillment, and personal well‑being go hand in hand.

We are united by a shared mission to improve the health and well‑being of the communities we serve, and by a vision of healthcare that is more compassionate, connected, and sustainable for everyone. Here, you’ll find more than a place to practice medicine — you’ll find a team that values your voice, invests in your success, and believes that caring for our providers is essential to caring for our patients.
