Our clinic is located in the urban setting of Spokane but is also close to the more rural areas of Nine MIle Falls. This area of Eastern Washington is beautiful and has an abundance of outdoor activities in the summer with lakes, swimming and hiking in the summertime and multiple ski resorts within an hour. For those that like to travel: the Spokane International Airport is just a short 15-minute drive from the clinic.

Our location is in a growing area with lots of good paying jobs and a robust economy with many diverse employers. Spokane is the second largest city in WA state (after Seattle) with just over 200,000 people and has many opportunities to meet some incredible people. If you are adventurous this could be the right fit for you!
