About Kristin Parker
I’m proud to call the Pacific Northwest home. I grew up in Centralia, Washington, and later moved to Seattle to attend Seattle Pacific University, where I earned my degree in biology. Before beginning medical school, I worked in the biotechnology industry, helping manufacture gene therapy products that contribute to advancing patient care. I completed my medical training at Western University of Health Sciences in Southern California and returned to Washington for residency at Valley Family Medicine. With over 10 years of experience in family medicine, I’m passionate about providing compassionate, patient-centered care. I believe in building strong relationships with my patients, listening closely to their needs, and working collaboratively with care teams to support their health and well-being. In my spare time I enjoy baking, photography, watching college football (go Huskies!) and spending time with my friends, family and pets.

Community Reviews
At Swedish, we're dedicated to providing you quality, personalized health care. We are constantly striving to optimize your experience.
As part of ensuring you have a positive experience with Swedish, our online provider directory includes ratings and patient comments for select providers. More about our survey.
I came in to review the ultrasound results after experiencing intermittent neck pain and swelling in my thyroid/neck area, and Kristin listened carefully and took my concerns seriously. She also ordered follow-up lab work related to my vitamin D issue. While I'm still hoping for more answers about what's causing the nodules and swelling, I really appreciate that I can advocate for myself without feeling like I have to manage ego in the process. Kristin communicates in a way that feels respectful, collaborative, and straightforward, and that makes a big difference in the care I receive. I also feel like Kristin advocates for me too.
Swedish Patient
It took a few weeks to get an appointment.
Swedish Patient
Dr Parker is personable, reliable, patient and knowledgeable. I am very happy that I had to opportunity to establish care with her while she was with Valley Medical and was able to continue seeing her through Swedish. She is an excellent provider and I have recommended her to friends on several occasions.
Swedish Patient

A very caring doctor
Swedish Patient
Thank you Dr. Parker! You are so wonderful and i'm so lucky to have you as my doctor!
Swedish Patient
Dr Kristin Parker has been a caring, concerned "partner" in my mom's health and well being. The receptionists were great this pastime and noticeably better than the last 2 times. The medical assistant was not great. She simply called out my mom's name, then no smileOr eye contact, No warm welcome, then led to a room, and said something quickly that we couldn't follow, had to ask her to repeat it. Not a consistent with your mission and values, and did not make us feel at ease. The portal has worked well, after initial crazy glitches. But did not like the advice to go toThe emergency room for care. We didn't and turned out it wasn't warranted.It feels like your team except the MAnwere all focused on a great patient experience and it was totally noticed. Thank you!!!
Swedish Patient
The care provider was good. However this was the first time during a physical exam that I kept my shirt on (I am a male) and that an accurate assessment of heart, lungs and abdominal check could be done appropriately. Maybe things have changed, but it seemed different than in the past.
Swedish Patient
Warm and welcoming staff. I had a good experience and got an appointment by phone very quickly.
Swedish Patient
Dr. Parker was very bright, easy to talk to and I felt validated and understood by her.
Swedish Patient
My care provider and the care team at Swedish Sand Point were incredible and extremely helpful. I was on a time crunch in needing to get a physical exam for work clearance, and the receptionist I called was very understanding of my situation and helped me make an appointment as a new patient in the same week I was calling. My care provider during my physical exam was very friendly and listened to my concerns. I received the lab work I had done within a day or two of my physical exam appointment. I also called to make an immunization appointment and was able to come in the next morning. Every time I have called with a question, the receptionists have been very warm and thorough with their questions to ensure that I get an answer, which has always been in a very timely manner! I could not have asked for a better experience at Swedish Sand Point and I would definitely recommend them to friends and family!

I recently experienced a back injury that caused a lot of pain and prevented me from sleeping. I called this office and was able to get in same day. Both Doctors were going out of their way to help me with Rx and PT referrals. Super helpful and caring!
Swedish Patient
Dr Kristin Parker has been my doctor for many years. When she moved to Swedish from Valley Medical, there was no question that I wouldn't become her patient at Swedish (even though the drive Is farther, she's worth It). She has taken excellent care of my health needs and I feel extremely confident that she really cares about me. She listens to any concerns or issues I have and we talk about options to treat, if necessary. If I contact her via MyChart, she gets back to me very quickly. I truly value and appreciate the excellent care she has always provided me.
Swedish Patient
Kristin Parker is not my regular physician; she saw me while my regular provider is out on maternity leave. Dr. Parker was thorough, took an interest in my comments and questions, and followed up immediately with an interpretation of the results of my lab test.

I saw Dr. Parker as a new patient after my previous primary care doctor retired. My appointment with Dr. Parker was a totally positive experience. She is an excellent listener and a caring, concerned, very knowledgeable doctor. She is willing to dig deeper for possible reasons for a health issue I'm experiencing. Because I was so impressed with Dr. Parker, I have already recommended her to my adult daughter.
