Allergist/Immunologist Opportunity in Beautiful Bellingham, WA
Join a Thriving, Independent Practice with a 35-Year Legacy of Excellence
Are you a board-certified or board-eligible Allergist/Immunologist looking for a fulfilling long-term career in a vibrant Pacific Northwest community? Our well-established, physician-owned practice in Bellingham, Washington, is seeking a dedicated MD/DO to join our collaborative team.
Why Join Us?
True Private Practice
We are proudly independent—not owned by a hospital or corporate health system. That means no administrators dictating your schedule or patient load. Instead, you’ll be part of a physician-led team where your voice matters, your autonomy is respected, and your career can thrive.
A Full-Scope Allergy & Immunology Practice
We provide the full spectrum of allergy and immunology services, including:
- Food allergy evaluation and management
- Oral Food Challenges (OFCs)
- Oral Immunotherapy (OIT)
- In-depth immunologic evaluations
- Immunoglobulin replacement therapy
This is a true medical practice—not a volume-driven factory—with a commitment to evidence-based, patient-centered care.
Work-Life Balance with Built-in Flexibility
We see fewer patients per day than most practices, giving you time to focus on quality care. You’ll have the flexibility to increase patient volume if desired. Minimal call, no weekend clinics, and a highly supportive staff help keep your work-life balance in check.
Leadership and Long-Term Impact
We’re looking for someone who wants to do more than just clock in. This is an opportunity to be a leader and future partner in a thriving, growing practice.
Robust Team and Strong Support
You’ll join a collegial team of two MDs and three PAs, supported by a large, experienced staff with a high provider-to-staff ratio. Our team values collaboration, mentorship, and mutual respect.
Academic & Research Integration
Our practice is actively engaged in clinical research, offering exciting opportunities to contribute to the advancement of allergy and immunology treatments—without sacrificing the flexibility and independence of private practice.
Practice at the Top of Your License
We’re busy, growing, and broad-based, yet grounded in evidence-based medicine. This is a place where your clinical expertise will be respected, your curiosity encouraged, and your contributions valued.
The Ideal Candidate Will Be:
- A board-certified/eligible MD or DO, who’s excited to join a growing, full-scope practice.
- Interested—and preferably experienced—in food allergy management, including OFCs and OIT
- Eager to be part of a collaborative, expanding team
