Blaine Family Medicine
Blaine Family Medicine opened the doors to its new clinic on June 16, 2025. Part of Family Care Network, a locally owned and operated group of clinics, we are passionate about optimum health and wellness for our community. We work with our patients and our team to build strong relationships, creating a rewarding and positive healthcare experience.
With the opening of Blaine Family Medicine, the former Birch Bay Family Medicine is now closed. All of the existing Birch Bay providers and staff have moved over to the Blaine location, and current Birch Bay patients are automatically now patients of Blaine Family Medicine.
We are excited about the opportunity to provide compassionate and comprehensive primary care for patients in all ages and stages of life in north Whatcom County. We are a full-service clinic with the ability to draw labs on-site for our patients.
Blaine Family Medicine would love to be your health care partner and welcome you into our family practice. Please call (360) 371-5855 for an appointment.
