Kristin Parker
4540 Union Bay Place Northeast, 
Seattle, WA 

Overview

I’m proud to call the Pacific Northwest home. I grew up in Centralia, Washington, and later moved to Seattle to attend Seattle Pacific University, where I earned my degree in biology. Before beginning medical school, I worked in the biotechnology industry, helping manufacture gene therapy products that contribute to advancing patient care. I completed my medical training at Western University of Health Sciences in Southern California and returned to Washington for residency at Valley Family Medicine. With over 10 years of experience in family medicine, I’m passionate about providing compassionate, patient-centered care. I believe in building strong relationships with my patients, listening closely to their needs, and working collaboratively with care teams to support their health and well-being. In my spare time I enjoy baking, photography, watching college football (go Huskies!) and spending time with my friends, family and pets.
