About thearea Kern County offers physicians and their families some of theregion's most affordable housing, along with several of California's topnatural attractions: it's the closest SCPMG area to the great outdoorexperiences of world-famous Yosemite, King's Canyon, Sequoia, and Death ValleyNational Parks. The city of Bakersfield is a secret gem, with groves ofold-growth trees, wide streets, and blocks of beautiful homes--without thetypical Southern California traffic jams.
Working here Kern County is unique within SCPMG. With its smaller-town,less urban feel, there is a true sense of family, of being an integral part ofsomething very special. It's the only medical center within SCPMG that can meetas one united group at the same time. Our area's smaller size fosters opendialogue across all levels, offering physicians a voice and enabling constantimprovements, small and large. Physicians enjoy the best of twoworlds--operating within the stability and support of the Permanente system, yetmaintaining the feel of a smaller medical group. New-hires are quicklyintegrated into the system, for accelerated learning and support. Thiswelcoming spirit goes far beyond the medical center: Physicians' spouses andfamilies are actively connected to one another in social activities, formal andinformal, and to local culture and activities.
