Patient Philosophy

I endeavor to monitor and improve peoples’ health, diagnose/identify any medical problems, reduce risks for disease and strive to provide the most effective and current therapies available.

I believe in listening to and working with my patients. First, to understand their concerns and healthcare goals, second, to provide guidance and treatment. I am not a doctor who simply tells you what to do. You will learn my opinion, but ultimately, you are in charge of your healthcare decisions. I believe a genuine doctor-patient relationship is based on mutual respect and I see my role is to offer my patients the benefit of my education and experience. As a result, I strive to formulate a treatment plan that best fits each individual's goals and needs.

After all, the best advice or medicine isn’t worth squat if you don’t want to take it.

Why The Doctors Clinic?

The Doctors Clinic is simply the best place in Kitsap County to provide or receive medical care. At a time when healthcare options are becoming increasingly corporate and impersonal - where doctors are employed by hospitals or other large companies - this dedicated group of talented local physicians, providers, technicians and support staff offer patients an unmatched experience. The Doctors Clinic expertly integrates primary care, specialty care, laboratory, and imaging services that are expertly delivered - leading to superior care.

Professional Experience

Since 2002, I have been privileged to live in and serve Kitsap County communities and the adjacent areas through my practice of medicine.

I have treated patients from all backgrounds and locations - from the community clinic in Bremerton to a private practice in Poulsbo - and now continue to deepen my knowledge and appreciation of this region’s extraordinary residents at The Doctors Clinic.

Personal Interests

Outside the office, my time and energy is focused on my family. I also immensely enjoy cinema and film, astronomy, digital video production and editing, comedy, intertidal marine biology, advertising, geology and rock polishing, graphic design and typography, early human archaeology and skulls, weather, earthquakes, scaring people on Halloween, exploring remote wilderness areas including deserts. I do not play golf.

"I wanted to share that Dr Tiffin Clegg is a wonderful and compassionate person. I hated to have to transfer to a different doctor because of us moving to Port Orchard."

~Lisa

"I just have to give a shout out to Dr. Glegg’s assistant. Tina is the best and has treated my mom and I like friends for years. We both always enjoy seeing her and chatting with her while she goes thru her routine with my mom. She’s got a fun personality and is refreshingly down to earth and makes my mom feel incredibly comfortable. My mom and I absolutely love Tina!"
