Virginia Mason Franciscan Health (VMFH) is expanding its collaborative Primary Care team at the Bainbridge Island location. The Primary Care physician role focuses on high‑quality care, teamwork, and relentless improvement of patient experience and outcomes.

• Team based approach: Virginia Mason has an innovative, collaborative practice approach. Clinical pharmacists, behavioral health consultants and other advanced practitioners work with physicians to provide comprehensive, coordinated care that achieves excellent health outcomes and patient satisfaction. Each provider is part of a pod that includes physicians, ARNP or PA’s, medical assistants and RN’s. The ARNP or PA supports the pod with a smaller patient panel and indirect‑care time, and built‑in coverage is available when a provider is out of the office.

• Access to ancillary and specialty services: Referral options to a wide range of medical and surgical specialties throughout Virginia Mason Franciscan Health, with collegial and responsive outcomes.
