Where You’ll Work

Swedish Medical Center’s Issaquah Highlands campus is a full-service community hospital 17 miles east of downtown Seattle. The 80-bed facility provides a wide range of inpatient and outpatient specialty care, including oncology, cardiology, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, emergency, intensive care and a host of specialized surgical services. The Swedish Issaquah emergency department received the prestigious Summit Award by Press Ganey Associates for maintaining patient satisfaction scores in the 95th percentile or above for at least three years.

Where You’ll Live

Issaquah is a scenic suburb of Seattle, east of the city on the south end of Lake Sammamish. With the Tiger, Squak and Cougar mountains surrounding it and state parks just minutes away, Issaquah feels farther from the urban center than it really is. Its historic shops, such as the famous Boehm’s Candies, attract visitors from around the world, while Duthie Hill Park’s 120 acres of evergreen forest are a popular hiking and mountain-biking destination.
