    The doctors are amazing IF you can ever get ahold of the office. when you call, you're lucky to get…read morean actual person on the phone. my doctor sent a referral twice that went into a black hole. the person who eventually answered the phone was a complete jerk and not helpful in any way. getting my test results took several portal messages and over two weeks. like I said, my doctor is amazing, but the rest of the place is a disaster.

    Let me "cut" to the chase: less than 24 hours after my procedure, I required no ice packs or pain…read morekillers whatsoever. Walking, sitting, even lifting objects was no problem. Even at the incision site, there is little evidence to indicate a procedure was performed at all. Beforehand, I had had a single consultation with Dr. Sasha Druskin, MD, who was as clear and concise about preparation, expectations, and post-op care as one could possibly desire. In total, combining both consult and the procedure itself, I interacted with Dr. Druskin less than 20 minutes, which is pretty incredible, considering this is still a surgery, regardless of how minor it may be. My wife, who was present during the procedure (and observed it in its entirety, which is pretty "ballsy", if you ask me!) was blown away by his precision and skill, just as I was similarly wowed at how painless the entire experience was, even after the fact. There is a "vas deferens" between expectation and reality, I can tell you! I cannot comment on billing and such at this time, being so fresh off the chopping block, although I will update this review if any problems arise. Similarly, my limited interactions with the schedulers and nurses was without complaint. But from a purely operational standpoint, I "can't conceive" of a more flawless execution than the experience I had with Dr. Druskin and NW Urology. In short, if you are considering a vasectomy, you can trust that, at least with Dr. Druskin, your family jewels are in good hands. Now turn your head and cough.

    Where to begin? Initial appointment was set a month in advance but missed because despite asking…read morefor a Friday and being told the date was for Friday (6/24), I was scheduled for a Thursday (6/23). This doctor office has the worst communication setup I've ever seen. This all happened because apparently I "missed" a text. Why isn't this emailed like every dentist and doctors office I've been to before??? I arrived 35 minutes early despite going to the wrong location initially as the app doesn't show you the address. You have to go to your appointment in the app, and click driving directions. No where else is the address listed for my appointment. 3:30pm is my appointment time (prefilled paperwork prior to arrival) and I arrived a little before 2:55pm. As I am escorted to my room at 3:50pm I am asked to provide a urine sample. Around 4:10pm is when I ask if they still need a urine sample, as I desperately needed to go and no one has so much as checked up on me. Four associated including the doctor saw me at the door and proceeded to continue doing what they were doing. Finally, getting someone's attention, the nurse tells me to go into the restroom and just grab a vial and put my name on it. The only "pen" is a permemant marker and I'm supposed to label it with that. Fast forward another 20 minutes and I'm all of the sudden getting an ultrasound of my bladder. Mind you, none of this was communicated prior. It's just like, hey, ready for this next? I would literally avoid coming here at any cost if it hadn't already taken me months to see a primary care physician, get a referral, "miss" an appointment booked incorrectly, and then come to the rescheduled appointment. I canceled because after the anal probe by the doctor, didn't feel comfortable he'd do the procedure without risking my health. (Not kind, as someone who's had three procedures)

    Confirmed my appt 1 week before via txt, took time off work, and showed up to find the offices…read morelocked and closed. Called their voice service / nurse who said there was a change but no notification .

    People's opinions tend to vary greatly depending on why they showed up at OHSU, what they were…read moretreated for and who treated them. In my case, I was there due to a community referral done by the VA to have an MRI done. The reason being that OHSU has the best and most advanced MRI setup in the area. So on that basis, OHSU gets five stars. The MRI operator was great. I was in a fair amount of pain and discomfort and he did everything possible to make me as comfortable as possible. The OHSU MRI machine was totally booked for well over a month but since my situation was urgent they made an appointment for me to come by at 05:00 to have it done. So someone didn't get a full night's sleep. I was not expecting such tight security when I showed up. The entrance was tighter than a TSA checkpoint at PDX. Being up on the hill and not in the city you wouldn't expect to see sketchy people roaming around but in this day and age I guess having a lot of security around is comforting. As noted above, your experience with OHSU might well be very different than mine. But understand that OHSU is a learning hospital and as such provides a wide array of medical services often using the latest and greatest equipment and technologies. The VA gets a lot of their medical staff from OHSU and the VA (at least in Portland) is an amazing facility. Great people at both.

    My wife and I moved from the New York/New Jersey area 6 years ago. Due to our ages we need to see…read moredoctors more frequently than we had in the past. For the most part we are pleased with the health care we have received from doctors at OHSU and the affiliate Adventist. However, the OHSU infrastructure that concerns patient care is horrendous. Apparently, there are a number of doctors that are not pleased with OHSU as the hospital is drastically understaffed and for whatever reason cannot fill vacancies in certain specialties. Many doctors on staff no longer take new patients as their case loads are full. I recently called the office to schedule an MRI for which they have a referral. I was on hold for nearly an hour. When the phone did finally ring, before an agent even got on the phone, I was hung up on. I suppose that is one way to reduce volume of calls. I called the main number, was given an apology. However, they simply reconnected me to the scheduling department. I was on hold and just hung up out of frustration. One regret I have in moving here was that we had to give up going to our hospitals back east like Sloan Kettering, Mount Sinai, and Hackensack University Medical Center.
