Description

SFM uses GE Centricity's electronic medical record (EMR) and practice management (PM) system. All outside chart documents are scanned, providing an up-to-date electronic medical chart that you may access from home, hospital or anywhere that Internet is available. We frequently hear this is of great benefit to physicians as they can best manage patient care when on-call, at the hospital or if they elect to chart at an alternate location.

Technology and innovation is a hallmark of SFM. This year, SFM received two prestigious awards for our clinical quality improvement work with patients with hypertension. Improving care and patient lives for those with diabetes is our recent focus. SFM offers patients unusual options such as, 1) Online Appointments 2) Secure Messaging (email to nurses and/or providers) 3) Online Test Results 4) Online RX Refills 5) Online Bill Pay 6) Email Reminders (to patients about follow-up or regular appointments).

Team collaboration drives SFM's innovative approach to healthcare. Internally this translates into mutual respect, trust, and the development of positive, productive working relationships. As an organization, we value compassion and are committed to fostering long-term relationships with both our employees and patients, and supporting innovative approaches in delivering unparalleled patient care in our community. Because we do comprehensive Risk Management Training for all staff and providers, our malpractice premiums are very low.

20 minutes from Tacoma, an hour from the mountains or Seattle, Puget Sound has it all. This area offers a rich variety of vacation, recreational and holiday pursuits from the cultural attractions of two major cities to island retreats, cozy bed and breakfasts, romantic country inns and first class resorts. There are plenty of opportunities for shopping, music, sightseeing, hiking, kayaking, and boating.

We're looking for physicians willing to practice full service family medicine, obstetrics optional. We offer an excellent compensation package, group health/dental/vision, retirement benefits and paid time off; partnership offered to physicians after two years of employment; malpractice paid by organization.
