About

Kime McClintock

"Hello! My name is Kimé (she/her) and I was born and raised in Anchorage, AK, where my love of mountains, the outdoors, and wild places first developed. I went to college at WWU in Bellingham, WA, where I became involved in community activism, sparking my commitment to social justice and feminism. I studied cultural anthropology and Spanish. During college I spent five months volunteering at a local NGO in Las Terrenas, DR -- working at a library, organizing a soccer club for kids, and facilitating a girls camp. After college I lived in Spain for about ten months WOOFFing -- working on small family farms and at guest houses in exchange for room and board. These formative experiences helped me confirm that I wanted to pursue community-based advocacy work; I landed a job at Planned Parenthood as a regional field organizer in Anchorage. I loved the work and the people that it brought into my life. I loved organizing around reproductive justice issues and advocating alongside my community. Knowing I wanted to expand my technical skills and understanding of health systems and policy, I moved to New Orleans, LA to do my MPH at Tulane. I fell in love with the vibrancy and grit of the city and the people there, yet was concurrently frustrated and outraged by the stark injustices, health disparities and barriers to care and resources that existed. I continued to focus on family planning and reproductive justice in my studies and community involvement. After graduation I moved back to Anchorage to work on the reelection campaign for US Senator Mark Begich. I then landed a dream job with MSI Reproductive Choices, a British NGO providing reproductive healthcare globally, and one of the largest providers of safe abortion care across the world. This based me in Washington, DC but allowed me to travel for work. I was inspired by the people around me and passionate about the projects we worked on, but I felt far away from the communities we served. After much reflection, I decided to pursue medical school in hopes of becoming an abortion provider. I attended medical school at George Washington University, allowing me to stay in DC with my partner. My path to family medicine was as winding as my path to medicine, but I realized there was no other specialty that would allow me to be the physician-advocate I aspired to be -- caring for my patients holistically and combining interests in reproductive health, abortion care, addiction medicine, and community and public health. I feel incredibly fortunate to be continuing my training at Swedish First Hill, learning from compassionate, thoughtful, and bright faculty and co-residents. I cannot wait to meet my patients and support them in their health goals. My partner and I, with our dog Taro, are so excited to explore PNW mountains and become a part of the community here in Seattle!"
