I've had my fair share of experiences with medical offices of all types. And while urgent cares…read morehave generally fallen into a mediocre category compared to other treatment centers, SwiftCare has set the new standard for all other urgent cares to live up to. The office is pristine, well-designed, and maintains reliable hours. The care, however, is what sets this place apart from any other. The staff, nurses, and physicians during my visit were so incredibly attentive, empathetic, and helpful. The service was truly unparalleled by any similar clinic that I have ever been to. Additionally, their pricing for out-of-pocket patients is reasonable, which rarely exists in the medical field at all in America. ZoomCare, a local competitor, charges at least twice as much for subpar care. If you're in need of urgent care, this is the place to receive it. Truly a five-star experience.

I was like , " well all this visit was for me was to get a refill on my thyroid medicine since the soonest I can get into my primary physician is in two months. Can't you do something?" He was like," We can't retroactively fix that." So NO, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM A TOTAL RIP OFF!

In all my years, I've never had 'benefits' that were assumed natives were 'given' because if tribal…read moreenrollment or affiliation. I've been in Oregon almost a year and a half now, and it's only due to this pandemic and tribal nations eligibility status for the Covid vaccine that I chose to seek further information. I contacted the clinic and was got details for application requirements and requested an email for reference. After gathering the most personal information about myself and my child I'd shared with anyone (birth certificates, marriage license, ss card), along with my insurance card, I dropped it off and was told to check back by the end of the week to see if it had been processed. The next day, I received a call indicating it was completed and I was now eligible to request an appointment for myself and my daughter. As mentioned, my objective was to get the vaccine, and they just happened to have a drop in clinic scheduled the next day. I showed up early, confirmed my eligibility and took some paperwork to complete while waiting for my number to be called. In less than 10 minutes, I had the shot and sat waiting for 15 minutes to ensure I had no adverse side affects. The medical staff was organized and on top of their game, processing people in six stations and quickly sanitizing everything after each person came through. The 'command center' received the paperwork of each dose recipient and completed CDC vaccine cards with a reminder for each person. In no time, my name was called, I was asked how I was feeling, given my card with a reminder to come back in two weeks, and was free to go. Given the level of care provided today, I wouldn't hesitate to explore other appointments available going forward.

My daughter got the last-mentioned and much more. Months prior to my daughter getting her surgery, she did tons of research. And locating a doctor who's not only a 'female doctor'- but one who's a die-hard specialist in her own right, was at my daughter's top of the list. My daughter lucked out when she met her surgeon who addressed her many questions, her needs and turned out to be the most professional and attentive. Located less than an hour from downtown Portland, Salem Hospital provided a positive experience, with friendly and helpful nurses and crystal clear communication when my daughter's checked herself in before 6am on the day of her surgery. The anesthesiologist asked all the necessary questions before surgery. I was a hot mess while I waited for my daughter because she'd be in the operating room for several hours. What made my nerves ease drastically were the constant text message updates throughout her surgery. Without those, I would've been a bigger mess. Salem Hospital feels safe, is clean, check-in was a breeze, waiting room is comfortable, a tv played quietly and there's a hot beverage station. Nurses turned out to be fantastic. My daughter searched for the best surgeon and she got it. As for me, Salem Hospital provided respect, care and delivered the best results at that moment pre, during and post surgery.

I am extremely impressed and appreciative of the services and support provided by this Pillar To…read morePost team. I have only lived in apartments before, so all of this was a new experience for me. My first impression was when speaking with the dispatcher by phone. She is very knowledgeable, and answered questions to me in detail. She was clear, transparent and honest, and did not try to gouge or oversell me on anything. This is a very important point given my lack of experience in this domain. I was invited to attend the inspection, and it was a fascinating process. I have only lived in apartments, so this was my first time being exposed to the internals and sub-systems of a house. The inspector is extremely thorough, and is very knowledgeable and patient if you ask him questions during the inspection. We went through every corner of the home and he pointed out areas which could be problematic, and also aspects which were well constructed. The inspector is very knowledgeable, and these people are easy to interact with. The report I received is very detailed and included critiques, observations, and maintenance tips. I followed up with questions, and got detailed responses. I am very grateful for the expertise and quality of service provided by this company. They are highly skilled, professional, and easy to work with. I believe I got an excellent service from them.

I called Pillar to Post today and claimed it wasn't their fault and we should have hired a contractor to fix these issues and they were not their responsibility to identify them, say what?! Just know if you use Pillar to Post and they make a mistake, they do nothing :(. I have a lot of friends who are real estate agents who I will be passing this along to, unfortunately. We will never work with them again.

I hired Perfection Inspection for a "check-up" inspection after living in my home for about 4…read moreyears. I'd changed out some appliances and fixed some issues from the original inspection, and noticed a few things over the last few years I wanted a professional opinion on all at once. Inspectors, in my opinion, are the absolute best for this, because they have a bit of experience with everything, but no incentive to scare you into into bigger and bigger maintenance/repair jobs. I couldn't be happier with my decision to hire them. From the moment I inquired about their services, Perfection Inspection was attentive and responsive in their communication. Jim was both professional and personable. After he arrived, he indulged me with some conversation about the home, his experiences with homeownership, my dog, etc. Jim is such a comfortable person to talk to that, before I knew it, I'd already wasted an hour of his time! Once his ear had been thoroughly talked off (not that he raised so much as a word of complaint) he was extremely efficient in his initial survey of the home. Within 45 minutes, he'd checked over the entire exterior and garage. He checked in with me and told me his findings so far, heard my concerns, and answered my questions. I was thrilled to notice that he'd paid extra attention to the concerns I had raised during our first conversation. This "efficient but thorough examination followed by check-in and Q&A" repeated 3 more times, once each for the interior, the attic, and the crawlspace. Not only did Jim find more than the original inspection or the initial building inspector did, he also took the time to make sure I understood the severity of the various issues and what options I could pursue for fixing them. He gave candid advice about what could be DIY'd, what should be hired out, and on what timeframes he'd recommend various jobs be done. Already, this would be easily worth the $450 I paid, but what has secured me as a "shout from the rooftops" advocate is the extra care Jim gave to my home. He spotted an issue with one of my windows and walked me through how to fix it then and there -- the kind of thing I've had on my to-do list for a year but just didn't know how to tackle. He was extremely respectful and careful of my belongings (and I'll be the first to admit my lack of tidiness -- there was much more of my junk laying around than there should be!) Finally, he was patient and kind to my overenthusiastic puppy, even checking with me about how to help keep the pup safe as he went in and out of the building. Hire this man. If you're a seller, have him check your property before you sell. If you're a buyer, rest easy knowing that if Jim misses something, it's probably not something you'll ever need to notice.

They gave us some quick instructions if we wanted to use a DIY method, which I quickly vetoed! We spoke with BJ about the issue and were able to quickly get an appointment with him; he took 13 samples (we needed quite a few due to the scope of the work), and received the results the following week, I think. He sent us the lab reports as soon as we had them so that we could share them with the plumbing company. (Total cost came to just shy of $300.) At any rate, BJ was super-helpful, friendly, and efficient, and I'd recommend him highly!

I get the sense that he genuinely does care about his customers and that "caring customer service" is not just a company slogan for him.

His attention to detail, his kind and personal customer service, and his obvious integrity, have definitely earned BJ and his company 5 stars in my book. :-)
