We got to learn a little more about Dr. Simpson-Manske in this recent interview.

What do you want patients to know about you?
I specialize in taking care of whole families, from grandparents to infants and everyone in between. I enjoy meeting my patients where they currently are in their health journey and helping them move in the direction of greater health and wellness.

What is a clinical interest you have?
I have a special interest in diabetes prevention, preventative healthcare, nutrition and family planning.

What drew you to Orcas Island?
I visited Orcas Island for the first time when I interviewed with Island Health. The staff was so welcoming and meeting with the Orcas Island Health Care District Board of Commissioners made me want to serve this unique community.

What are some of your hobbies?
After many years of living in New Mexico, I am excited to explore my passions of kettlebell, mountain biking, snowboarding, cooking and gardening here in the Pacific Northwest. My two Bernese Mountain dogs are looking forward to exploring the trails with me.
