About the Area

Kern County provides physicians and their families with some of the most affordable housing options in the region, alongside access to California's premier natural attractions.

Physicians benefit from the stability and support of the Permanente system while enjoying the camaraderie of a smaller medical group. New team members are swiftly integrated into the system, promoting rapid learning and support. This welcoming culture extends beyond the medical center, as physicians' spouses and families engage in various social activities and local cultural events.
