Emily Larmore Cooper, MD

"Dr. Cooper is a board certified internal medicine physician who has practiced in Seattle since 2004. She has a long-standing reputation in Seattle as a very knowledgeable, personable, and compassionate physician. Dr. Cooper feels passionate about developing lifelong relationships with her patients. After working for large medical organizations for 14 years, she found that she had to see more and more patients each day at the expense of not having enough time with her patients to foster these relationships. Therefore, she decided she had no choice but to open her own medical practice in order to give patients the care they deserved in a calm, unhurried environment. Dr. Emily Cooper grew up just outside of Omaha, Nebraska. She attended Northwestern University in Evanston, IL earning her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. She attended the University of Nebraska College of Medicine earning her Medical Degree. She and her husband, Dr. Joshua Cooper, then made the move to Seattle to complete their residency training at Virginia Mason Medical Center. She has been practicing outpatient internal medicine since completing her residency in 2004. She and Josh loved Seattle so much, they decided to make this their home. They live in Northeast Seattle with their two boys and energetic dog, Scout. When she is away from the clinic, Dr. Cooper is passionate about fitness, hiking, downhill skiing, sailing, reading, and baking."
