Dr Benjamin Finch, DO
Dr Finch moved to Yakima at age 14, attending East Valley High School and Yakima Valley Community College (Running Start) graduating in 2008. From there he attended CWU, earning a BA in Biology in 2011. His attendance at CWU is where he grew to love Ellensburg, it's community, and met his wife, Alyssa. While applying for medical school Ben found out more about the difference between M.D.s and D.O.s. Turns out his favorite family doctor growing up was a DO. Dr Finch received an army military scholarship for medical school graduating as a Doctor of Osteopathy from Pacific Northwest University in Yakima WA in 2016. He completed his family medicine residency at Madigan Army Hospital on Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Tacoma, WA. His subsequent term of military service ended in 2023 with 7 years of service, separating from the military as a Major. Now that he's completed his military service he's excited to be back home in central Washington. He's married with 2 young children and loves spending time with them and being involved in his church community at Chestnut Street Baptist.
Want to know why I chose direct primary care?
Wondering what the difference between a MD and DO is?
