Sexual Health Provider - ARNP

About Us
Country Doctor Community Health Centers (CDCHC) is a not-for-profit organization that operates two primary care clinics, an After-Hours Clinic, two School-Based Health Centers, a low barrier Medication-assisted treatment clinic, and a Dental Clinic. Our Carolyn Downs Family Medical Center was founded in 1970 by the Seattle Black Panther Party in Seattle’s Central District. Our Country Doctor Community Clinic was established in 1971 by residents of the Capitol Hill neighborhood in conjunction with the Seattle Liberation Front. The primary goal of each clinic was to provide low-barrier, high-quality healthcare services and promote social justice.

CDCHC is passionate about serving patients of all ethnicities, races, gender identities, languages, and backgrounds and employing individuals who are equally committed to this mission. To ensure our organization is best serving these populations, we strive to promote policies that enable us to work effectively in all cross-cultural situations, with patients, with coworkers, and with the community.

Our Mission and Commitment to Social Justice
We remain committed to health equity and our founding principle of social justice. Every day our actions are guided by our mission: to improve the health of our community by providing high-quality, caring, culturally appropriate primary health care that addresses the needs of people, regardless of their ability to pay. At Carolyn Downs and Country Doctor, health care is a right, not a privilege.
