Vancouver Clinic wants to more than double size of its Camas clinic

One of Clark County’s largest health care providers, the Vancouver Clinic, plans to expand its Camas location.

Vancouver Clinic has submitted a preliminary land-use application at its Camas location, 4500 S.E. Columbia Palisades Drive. The clinic is requesting to add up to 45,327 square feet of medical office building use, according to pre-application documents submitted with the city of Vancouver. The current office is 26,400 square feet.

While the location has a Camas mailing address, it is inside Vancouver city limits, right on the border with Camas, just east of 192nd Avenue.

“It’s the earliest stage in a long process to determine the feasibility for a new development on the site,” said Kelly Love, Vancouver Clinic’s marketing director. “It’s too early in the process to know the outcome or make any announcement. We anticipate having more information to make that determination in the next few months.”

The Camas medical office is Vancouver Clinic’s eighth location and was constructed so that an additional 30,000-square-foot structure could be built there, according to Columbian archives.

“As proposed, TVC (The Vancouver Clinic) will add up to 45,327 square feet of medical office building use,” according to a memo the clinic submitted to the city of Vancouver.

The Camas location opened in 2020 and currently offers urgent care, family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, ophthalmology, labs and imaging.

The city has scheduled a preliminary application conference for Aug. 15.

Vancouver Clinic is a physician-owned medical provider with more than 500 clinicians and 2,100 employees in Southwest Washington.
