I fell on one knee the day after Christmas and it was slow to heal. I had my GP x-ray it, and to…read morebetter understand what I was in for, I got an app't with an orthopedist. This was easy, I was taken in quickly, and preregistered easily on MyChart, the corporation's proprietary website. Check-in at the clinic took about 5 minutes, I was taken to the examination room at the appointed time, and Dr. Carol Chang, a DO specializing in sports medicine, examined me thoroughly. First-rate bedside manner, listened well, and did not push chargeable procedures. She called up the x-rays on her desktop computer and explained to me what was going on. I was given exercises to do, as we were in accord about proceeding conservatively. I have no hesitation in recommending this clinic or this provider. I am given to understand that when Salem Health acquired this clinic on 9/29/23, nearly all the former staff were retained.

In 2016 I was boarding a flight to IND, returning from PDX and placing my bag in the overhead…read morecompartment. I twisted around from my seat and heard a pop, then felt pain in my knee. By the time I arrived home, my knee was sore and swollen. My PCP referred me to a sports medicine specialist for an MRI, and I learned that I'd torn my ACL tendon. My options were limited, cortisone shot, ice and care with my movements. The only other option was surgery. Fast-forward to 2020 after my relocation to Oregon. I'd done okay since, with the occasional pain and swelling. I was excited to explore the wilderness and go hiking in the PNW! I joined my kids on a trip to Silver Falls and made the challenging 7 mile hike, but paid for it afterwards and knew I couldn't continue without addressing my knee. I got another MRI locally confirming the damage and delayed seeing an Orthopedic doctor during the pandemic. Once I felt more comfortable, I went to a consultation at Hope Orthopedic and heard, once again, that my options were either to live with the pain and swelling and be careful OR to have surgery. I gave the green light and got a call to schedule with Willamette Surgery Center (a couple blocks down the street) within a couple of weeks. I'd received a call outlining everything, but no reminder about test requirements and had to delay because of a lack of a required Covid test 2 days prior. Pretty unusual, I thought, in this day and age of text reminders! Either way, I pushed it about 2 weeks out and confirmed my 18+ adult driver/health supervisor for the next few days. My friend was great to be there (Willamette Surgery Center) for me and took good care of me afterwards. I've since seen my doctor and had multiple physical therapy appointments and am on my way to recovery! The PT has been essential in the success and I've enjoyed seeing the progress. Thanks to all at Hope Orthopedics, I'm looking forward to hiking again without pain this Spring!

This clinic was the worst. I have a problem for which I'd seen two previous PTs, who only made my…read morepain worse. At Therapeutic Associates I stressed, my entire first visit, that I needed them to proceed very slowly. But they just couldn't do this. My second visit the same PT did a very hard massage, much too hard, then passed me off to another PT who clearly hadn't read the notes. She had me do neck exercises beyond my limit, and before I even left there I was in pain. That afternoon and evening I was in the worst pain of all. I never went back. Those PTs were inconsiderate and didn't pay attention to anything I said. They are incompetent. Please avoid this place and go somewhere that will care about your pain instead of blindly and unthinkingly have you do whatever routine exercises they were taught in PT school.

I have gone to many physical therapists but this clinic and the staff here are my favorites for…read moremany reasons. Jamie and the others at the front desk are courteous, friendly and helpful professionals. Ashleigh is the director and lead PT. She is an amazing human being and therapist. Her team creates a multi-pronged approach which is nothing short of miraculous, especially when you're in pain but also when you're simply trying to expand your ability to train your body better.

I was referred to Salem Rehab Associates for EMGs and nerve conduction studies on my arms. I had…read morebeen having pain in my neck and arms for almost two months. The studies were done by a young woman doctor who treated me with incredible kindness and compassion. She did a thorough exam, asked questions and really listened. The rest of the staff were also friendly and efficient. I would definitely recommend Salem Rehab Associates!

If you are referred to this facility I highly recommend you ask the referral doctor to pick another…read morelocation or facility. A family member went there and the Dr was not professional, did not explain things, did not listen to their concerns, ignored their disabilities, and they still have bruises from the testing days later. We went thinking that they would be a good location as all the other specialists we have been referred to are very professional and listen and answer questions, this was the complete opposite. I guess that explains the empty parking lot when we drive past when in the area.
