Providence operates two Family Medicine Centers. One is located in the heart of Southeast Portland; the other is in Milwaukie, on the campus of Providence Milwaukie Hospital. Both centers have providers who are fluent in languages spoken by their patients and who are sensitive to patients' cultural expectations. Everyone on staff, from the front office to the practitioners, is dedicated to providing health care to vulnerable populations, with compassion and cultural competency. We strive to incorporate our core values of compassion, excellence, justice, respect, and stewardship in our centers and in the community.
