Tess Moore, MD

As owner of the clinic, I take your health and your experience with us to heart. I am passionate about caring for individuals and families throughout their lives. Through connection and listening, I have come to appreciate that different patients have different needs, challenges, and personal goals. Because of my interest in specialized care for individual needs, I offer slow-paced visits, more detailed education about your or your child's condition and treatment, a weight inclusive approach, and getting to know what your goals for treatment are rather than mine. I want my patients to feel cared for in their body rather than in spite of their body, and I take a patient centric approach. I have special interest in caring for whole families, eating disorders, non-surgical gynecologic health, medication assisted treatment for substance abuse, and gender affirming care. As a separate service from Primary Care, I offer medical consultation for eating disorders. I was immediately drawn to Direct Primary Care (DPC) because it allows doctors to spend more time with patients and less time with insurance concerns. After completing medical school at the University of Washington and residency at Valley Medical Center, I spent 10 years in practice as a Clinical Director at the Community Health Center of Snohomish County providing full spectrum Family Medicine including Obstetrics. I am Clinical Faculty at the University of Washington in the Department of Family Medicine and have been recognized as a fellow with the American Academy of Family Medicine for my leadership and ongoing commitment to exceptional primary care, caring for underserved populations, and teaching. In 2022 I earned the Roger A Rosenblatt Community Service Award from the King County Academy of Family Physicians, as well as a Top Doctors award with the Seattle Met.
