What our physicians have to say…

For me, working at NorthBay is like hitting the jackpot. I have the perfect combination of autonomy, superb leadership, grateful patients, and work life balance. Coming to work every day at this organization is truly a gift.

Jessica Powers, MD Oncology

My wife has worked for NorthBay for 5 years and convinced me that this is a unique health care system where the visions of physicians and administration align. Over the last six months, my expectations have only been exceeded. I only wish I joined sooner.

Mark Villalon, MD Interventional Cardiology

I was attracted to NorthBay because of the community based hospital setting — this really provided me a sense of family & community in the workplace.
