About Adventist Health

Adventist Health is more than a healthcare system; we provide whole-person care to our communities—from the operating room to the boardroom. We are driven by a unique passion to live God's love through health, wholeness, and hope. From Oregon to Oahu, we have a calling to always do more. Top providers choose to build their future with us because of our diverse locations, multiple employment models, and a physician-driven culture that continually works on improvements and is accountable for results. Every individual, regardless of personal beliefs, is welcome in our facilities, and we are eager to partner with members of other faiths to enhance the health of the communities we serve.

About the Role and Partnership

This role is a key part of our commitment to being a leader in patient experience, quality care, and fiscal strength. Our providers play a vital role in this mission, ensuring that the communities we serve receive exceptional medical attention.

About Coalinga

Coalinga, California, is a small city in Fresno County known for its agricultural roots and unique local features. Located in central California, roughly halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco, it is easily accessible via Interstate 5 and Highway 198. The city is about 65 miles southwest of Fresno, the largest nearby urban center.

Coalinga offers a small-town vibe with a tight-knit community and relatively affordable housing and living expenses compared to California's larger cities. The economy is primarily based on agriculture, oil production, and education, with nearby Chevron oil fields and agribusinesses serving as major employers. The city is served by the Coalinga-Huron Unified School District and West Hills College Coalinga, which provides higher education and vocational training opportunities.

For outdoor enthusiasts, Coalinga is close to natural attractions including the Coast Range mountains, Los Gatos Creek Park, and Pinnacles National Park (about an hour away). Residents can enjoy hiking, camping, and exploring nearby trails. While the city has essential amenities like grocery stores, local shops, restaurants, and healthcare facilities, residents may travel to Fresno for more specialized services. Originally a coal mining town, Coalinga has a rich history tied to its name and the development of California's oil industry.
