Exceptional care is built on trust, attention to detail, and strong relationships, and we're grateful when patients take the time to share their experiences.

Recently, two patients independently recognized Kim Kittell, PA, for the care they received at our Tillamook primary and specialty care medical office. One patient described Kim as "wonderful, friendly, thorough, and efficient," while also praising Brooklyn, her medical assistant, for being friendly and helpful. Another patient shared that Kim is a "phenomenal provider" who is thorough and diligent, adding that they feel they are receiving great care.

Thank you to Kim, Brooklyn, and our entire primary care team for the compassionate, patient-centered care you provide every day. Feedback like this reflects the dedication of our caregivers and the importance of having trusted healthcare providers close to home.
