About the Area

Kern County provides physicians and their families with some of the most affordable housing options in the region, along with access to several of California's premier natural attractions. It is the nearest SCPMG area to the breathtaking outdoor experiences found in world-renowned Yosemite, King's Canyon, Sequoia, and Death Valley National Parks. The city of Bakersfield is a hidden treasure, featuring groves of ancient trees, spacious streets, and beautiful homes, all without the usual Southern California traffic congestion.

Working Here

Kern County stands out within our organization. With its small-town charm and less urban atmosphere, there is a genuine sense of community and belonging. It is the only medical center within our organization that can convene as a unified group simultaneously. The smaller size of our area encourages open communication at all levels, giving physicians a voice and facilitating ongoing improvements, both minor and significant. Physicians benefit from the stability and support of the Permanente system while enjoying the atmosphere 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 actively engage with one another through various social activities and local cultural events.
