About the Doctor

Dr. Emily Donaldson-Fletcher, MD is a compassionate and clinically accomplished Family Medicine Specialist who brings a broad-based, patient-centered approach to primary care across her two practice locations in Bellevue, Washington, and Berkeley, California. She earned her Doctor of Medicine degree from Tulane University of Louisiana, one of the nation’s distinguished medical schools renowned for producing well-rounded, community-focused physicians with strong clinical skills and a commitment to health equity.

What sets Dr. Donaldson-Fletcher apart within the family medicine landscape is her clinical focus on complex cardiovascular and metabolic conditions — specifically cardiomyopathy and the intersection of high blood pressure with heart and kidney disease — alongside a robust preventive medicine practice. This dual focus on early prevention and the management of serious chronic conditions reflects a sophisticated, proactive approach to patient health that goes beyond routine primary care. Her ability to manage complex cardiac and renal comorbidities within a family medicine setting provides patients with integrated, coordinated care that minimizes the need for fragmented specialist visits for those conditions.

In addition to her clinical expertise, Dr. Donaldson-Fletcher offers a notably diverse procedural portfolio that includes integrative treatments such as ozone injections and ALCAT food sensitivity testing alongside conventional services including joint injections, nebulizer treatments, medication-assisted treatment, and OB consultations. This breadth of in-office services ensures that patients can receive a wide range of care needs addressed in a single, trusted practice environment. She is bilingual in English and Spanish, making her practice accessible to Spanish-speaking patients in both the Pacific Northwest and the San Francisco Bay Area. She is currently accepting new patients at both of her practice locations.
