Dr. Mark E. Gonsky, DO

As a third-generation osteopathic physician, Dr. Gonsky (“GONE-ski”) grew up with an appreciation for the personal relationships that have long been at the heart of family medicine. Childhood memories of house calls and the trust between physicians and their patients helped shape his approach to care and inspired the founding of Deschutes Family Care.
Dr. Gonsky graduated from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2008 and completed his family medicine residency at Central Washington Family Medicine in Yakima, Washington, in 2011.
Outside the clinic, he enjoys spending time outdoors with his wife and three sons—exploring Central Oregon and appreciating the community they call home.
Our philosophy is to seek health and to assist each person in becoming their own healer. This is in line with osteopathic principles:
- The body is a unit; the person is a unit of body, mind, and spirit.
- The body is capable of self-regulation, self-healing, and health maintenance.
- Structure and function are reciprocally interrelated.
- Rational treatment is based upon an understanding of the basic principles of body unity, self-regulation, and the interrelationship of structure and function.
