Kayla Coats, GME Program Coordinator, family medicine

I enjoy spending time outdoors exploring new places, swimming, camping and fishing with my children and dog. I specifically love to go rock hunting in the rivers. I collect rocks for my massive rock garden. In the cooler weather, I enjoy watching movies, reading a good book, playing puzzle games, crocheting and coloring.

I enjoy the simple joys of life, from getting lost in a good adventure novel, to evenings at the local theater with family and friends. Creativity finds its way into my scrapbooking, while my love for the outdoors takes me boondocking and riding quads year-round with my husband on the trails of Central Oregon. I also enjoy camping trips on the Oregon coast, taking our boat out on nearby lakes and storm watching the ocean in the winter.

Health care has been an interest for me the past 25 years. Supporting staff, patients and the public through my various positions (clinics, compliance, mental health, marketing, medical staff and in supportive roles for finance, directors and administration) brings joy to me knowing that each aspect/role contributes to providing health care and access to our underserved community. I am an avid outdoor enthusiast, and enjoy reading and sharing time with family and friends over good meals.
