Dr. Brenna Harris embodies what it means to be a ‘Pacific Northwesterner.' Born and raised on a farm in the small town of Kittitas, Washington, she developed an appreciation for rural life and agricultural communities that has remained with her throughout the years. After attending high school near Seattle, Dr. Harris returned to the "East Side" of the state for her undergraduate studies. It was during her time at Washington State University that Dr. Harris' desire to give back to others and care for the under-served was reinforced. After spending a summer in Guatemala to volunteer at a shelter and learn Spanish, Dr. Harris went on to graduate with honors from WSU and earn a degree in Molecular Biology. She later went on a medical mission to Honduras with Global Medical Brigades, where she helped provide free care and medical supplies to over 300 patients with extremely limited access to healthcare. During her time in Southern California, Dr. Harris became a coordinator at the Montclair Clinic where she helped train other providers and cared for the homeless. She went on to complete her Residency at East Pierce Family Medicine, where she served as Chief Resident. While her medical degree took her to California, her deep ties and strong desire to return to the Pacific Northwest to raise her family and practice medicine never wavered. While she admits that it was difficult to leave one of her favorite places - Disneyland- we are grateful that Dr. Harris' goal to ‘come home' remained intact! The Harris family is thrilled to finally settle down in an area that offers the amenities and opportunities of a big city while maintaining a ‘small town feel and wide-open spaces.' After years of living near Los Angeles and Seattle, they are especially thankful for Pullman's lack of traffic and outstanding schools for their three children. Dr. Harris and her husband are looking forward to becoming active members of the community and engaging in all that the Palouse has to offer. Their daughter, who quickly took to the beauty of the region, particularly enjoys the "cotton candy sunsets;" and they can't wait to enjoy more of them in the years to come. When not in the office, Dr. Harris enjoys spending as much time as possible with her amazing family. Having three young children at home keeps their lives full and busy. Between their kids' school, sports, and numerous outdoor activities including camping, hiking, fishing, mountain biking, and even whitewater rafting. Whenever possible, the Harris family enjoys traveling to new locations, attending sporting events and concerts. She also loves reading and welcomes any recommendations on the "must reads" or next best seller lists.

Dr. Molly Thompson was born and raised in the great state of Iowa! No stranger to rural living, she grew up as second oldest of four children, on a small family farm in northern Iowa where they raised pigs and grew corn and soybeans. She realized that she wanted to be a physician early in life and was determined to achieve her dream. Dr. Thompson left Iowa and ventured into the "big city" of Omaha, Nebraska to attend college at Creighton University where she studied biology and medical anthropology. While in college, she realized her passion for international medicine and service. She has spent time working and learning with Indian Health Services (Blackfeet Community Hospital in Browning, MT & Fred LeRoy Health and Wellness Center, Ponca Tribe in Omaha, NE). She spent a summer researching water quality and public health in the Dominican Republic and spent a summer in the Mampong District Hospital in Ghana, Africa while she still in medical school. These experiences have made lasting impressions on Dr. Thompson and provided her with a desire to do all she can to cross cultural boundaries and help patients from all backgrounds gain access to the care they need. After her undergrad at Creighton, Dr. Thompson returned to Iowa City for medical school where she finally became a Hawkeye at the University of Iowa. She then spent the next 3 years of her training in residency in Fort Worth Texas, at the largest Family Medicine Residency in the country; John Peter Smith (JPS) Residency program. While in residency, she was trained in full-spectrum family medicine, spending innumerable hours in the county hospital. She found this to be an incredible experience as she got to work in a safety-net hospital with a large, diverse community including the many Dallas-Fort Worth refugee patients that came from around the world. While Dr. Thompson enjoyed her experiences in Texas. loved her residency, and has really taken to the saying "y'all", she knew Texas is not where she wanted to settle down. was ready for a change of scenery. Since every vacation she took ended up involving snow, wide open spaces and fresh mountain air, she quickly decided her heart was set on finding a place in the Pacific Northwest! Outside of work and in her free time, Dr. Thompson usually can be found playing outside! She loves gardening/farming (not picking up sticks though). Very passionate about the environment, she has new goals and is thinking of trying her hand at bee keeping! She loves playing sports whenever she can and states that volleyball is her favorite. She loves trying new foods and exploring the world with her stomach! If she is not found outside or exploring, then she is likely catching up on movies, television, or pop culture from the comfort home. When it comes to seasons, Dr. Molly Thompson loves the fall the most! She loves camping and sitting around the campfire with friends. Dr. Thompson absolutely loves dogs! So much so that while finishing her residency program, she decided to give her rescue dog Glenn some play mates and become a foster-dog volunteer with the local shelter. It is a great thing she did, because that's when Dr. Thompson met Maggie, who just seemed destined to join her little family. Maggie officially joined the pack right before their move to Pullman and is happy to be living in the Palouse too!
