PeaceHealth Medical Group

PeaceHealth’s construction of a single-story, multispecialty medical clinic in Lynden is on track for completion in the Spring of 2024. Located at 8844 Benson Rd., at the intersection with E. Badger Rd., the 24,000 square-foot PeaceHealth Lynden Clinic will house both traditional (by advance appointment) and same-day primary care, as well as the following specialty and support services: orthopedics, cardiology, OB-GYN, physical therapy, imaging and lab. Additional services may be added in the future based on community need.

“PeaceHealth has long identified the need to enhance healthcare services to the communities in North and East Whatcom County,” says Jim Bochsler, MD, chief medical officer of PeaceHealth Medical Group, Northwest. “We couldn’t be more pleased with the welcome reception and spirit of collaboration we’ve experienced from the City of Lynden from day #1 of this project, as we both recognize the importance of comprehensively meeting the healthcare needs of Lynden, Sumas, Everson and Nooksack area residents now and into the future.”

More than 50 caregivers will be working in the clinic each day, serving approximately 150-200 patients. PeaceHealth is contracting with Bellingham-based and employee-owned Exxel Pacific, Inc., on the facility’s construction.
