We know it can feel like modern technology has pushed healthcare to the point where the word “care” doesn’t mean much anymore. Well, it does to us. Since 1929, when Dr. John Brougher traveled the backroads of rural Washington to deliver babies to patients who paid him in chickens, Vancouver Clinic has been led by doctors and staffed by experts who work together to take great care of our patients. 80 years later, Caring for Others is still our purpose and our mission, and the driving force behind everything we do. Because if we’ve learned anything over the years, it’s that the best care happens between one human being and another, face to face, eye to eye, heart to heart.
