Overview

You take care of patients.

We'll take care of everything else.

Including you.

You've spent years learning and training to provide outstanding care for your patients. That's why our model lets you focus on taking care of them. Our physicians have wrap-around practice and administrative support to do many of the things that aren't clinical, from answering emails to providing follow-up instructions, to helping secure social services for your patients.

Our integrated model fosters an environment that encourages and rewards innovation, providing our staff with ample opportunities to explore their interests. A recipient Healthgrades 50 Best Hospitals awards, Vohs and Lawrence awards, and 3-star ratings from Society of Thoracic Surgeons (to name just a few), we put innovative ideas forward while doing the right thing for patients. And we want your voice at our table.

Northwest Permanente, P.C. is currently seeking Board Certified or Eligible Inpatient Psychiatrist to join or growing medical group as a locum tenens physician to work in support of weekend, on-call coverage at our two hospitals in the Portland Metro area (Kaiser Sunnyside Medical Center and Kaiser Westside Medical Center). It is preferred that applicants have experience with digital technologies (AI platforms, telehealth and digital health). If no direct experience, then you will need to demonstrate both flexibility and adaptability to incorporate these into your practice as we continue to evolve our virtual care model. You will need to have licenses in OR and WA to be credentialed. We are also open to physicians interested in working onsite, virtually, or a combination of onsite/ virtual depending on the needs of the Mental Health team.
