Amber Vester, DO, joined PeaceHealth Medical Group's urgent care team in 2023. She earned her medical degree from Western University of Health Sciences College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific in Pomona, Calif. “Practicing medicine allows me to combine my love of science and anatomy with my passion for caring for people,” she says. “The art of medicine is being able to apply the science to the individual patient sitting in front of you. That challenge and personal connection keeps me engaged and committed to patient care.” She enjoys hiking, running and spending time with her family.
