Tess T. Moore, MD

"I am passionate about caring for individuals and families throughout their lives. Through connection and listening, I have come to appreciate that different patients have different needs, challenges, and personal goals. Because of my interest in specialized care for individual needs, I offer a newborn package for expectant families and a house call membership for patients who have challenges getting to the office. I also have special interest in women’s health, mental health, medication assisted treatment, and gender affirming care.

I was immediately drawn to Direct Primary Care (DPC) because it allows doctors to spend more time with patients and less time with insurance concerns. For patients this transparency and access is revolutionary. There are no artificial time limits on visits, no co-pays, and no hidden charges. Through DPC you will have access to me through email, text, video or phone, and same or next day office visits. By limiting the number of patients and removing the problems with insurance-based practice, I can have a more personal relationship with you. Preventive medicine and outstanding chronic disease management can help patients live longer and healthier lives. The relationship with a trusted physician puts change within reach.

After completing medical school at the University of Washington and residency at Valley Medical Center, I spent the last 10 years in practice as a Clinical Director at the Community Health Center of Snohomish County providing full spectrum Family Medicine including Obstetrics. During the last 8 years I have also been Clinical Faculty at the University of Washington in the Department of Family Medicine. I have been recognized as a fellow with the American Academy of Family Medicine for my leadership and ongoing commitment to exceptional primary care, caring for underserved populations, and teaching.  I have lived in Seattle for over 25 years. In my free time I can be found laughing with my daughter, losing the battle of the weeds in my garden, and on good days playing in the mountains on foot or skis. I am excited to join the remarkable team at Greenlake Primary Care and offer Direct Primary Care to your family and the community."

"Greenlake Primary Care is an independent primary care medical clinic. We have transitioned to a Direct Primary Care Membership clinic in 2021 in order to meet our mission to provide affordable, personalized, and comprehensive primary care, that focuses on the individual’s needs, while taking evidence-based population medicine into account.

At Greenlake Primary Care, we believe that a trust is the foundation of the patient-doctor relationship and the key to good healthcare. The Direct Primary Care model allows us to gain your trust by taking the time to listen, provide education, communicate effectively, and guide you through the medical process. Excellent health starts with an excellent partnership.

We believe that you should know exactly how much it will cost to receive medical care. At Greenlake Primary Care there are no hidden costs, our membership prices are on our website, and any other costs are discussed with you before you receive the service."
