Family Medicine Physician Assistant – Sisters, Oregon

High Lakes Health Care, part of Praxis Health, is proud to be recognized as one of the most innovative—and most human—medical groups in Central Oregon. Our commitment is simple: provide exceptional, relationship-centered care while fostering an environment where providers feel supported, respected, and empowered to do their best work. This dedication is reflected in our community being named “Best Medical Group” eight years running.

As the largest primary care group in Central Oregon, High Lakes is deeply rooted in the communities we serve. As part of Praxis Health—Oregon’s largest independent medical group—you’ll benefit from the strength of a collaborative network, accessible specialty resources, and responsive leadership.

We are seeking an experienced Physician Assistant to join our clinic in Sisters, Oregon. This role is best suited for a confident, well-rounded clinician who values autonomy and thrives in an independent practice setting.

About the Role
This position offers a unique opportunity to practice in a solo-provider environment during your scheduled clinic sessions. While the clinic is home to two providers, each maintains independent coverage during their respective schedules. This structure requires a provider who is:

• Clinically confident across a broad scope of primary care
• Comfortable with independent decision-making and problem-solving
• Adaptable and efficient in managing a full patient panel
• Committed to delivering thoughtful, relationship-driven care

You’ll be supported by a strong clinical team and have access to the broader High Lakes and Praxis network for collaboration, but your day-to-day practice will require a high degree of autonomy and clinical ownership.

This is an excellent opportunity for a provider who enjoys practicing at the top of their license while building meaningful, long-term relationships within a close-knit community.
