Why Bend, Oregon Tucked against the eastern slope of the Cascade Mountains, Bend offers a lifestyle that feels both invigorating and deeply restorative. Mornings often begin with mountain views and crisp high-desert air, while evenings end beside the Deschutes River, at a neighborhood brewery, or under the glow of an alpine sunset. With more than 300 days of sunshine annually, Bend has become one of the Pacific Northwest’s most beloved destinations for those seeking year-round outdoor adventure balanced with a vibrant and welcoming community.

Yet what makes Bend truly special is not simply its scenery — it is the rhythm of life here. Physicians are drawn to the community for its balance: nationally recognized skiing, hiking, cycling, fly-fishing, and golf exist alongside exceptional restaurants, locally owned coffee shops, live music, art galleries, and an increasingly sophisticated culinary scene.
