Bad patient care. Hostile work environment and lack of ambition to change/solve problems from the powers at be.

Report
This office is belittling and unhelpful, on multiple occasions I have had to call several times to get medications sent to the pharmacy and the high turnover rate of staff is concerning. I have also been in person and have consistently seen reception not wearing masks while around other staff and clients.

Report
I have been attending this office for about 4 years. The first doctor I saw, along with my oldest son, was alright. He left after about a year and then I saw Dr Sagen Olson, who was wonderful. She took time to understand you and why you were there. Last year I had to call after surgery hours and she replied back within a few minutes and advised me to go to the ER, which turned out to be a life changing event for me. Unfortunately, she left the practice earlier this year to pursue a career opportunity in the medical field. I won't name the doctor who I have seen since then at RiverRoad, but I won't be going back. On my last visit to have my meds reviewed, it took them three times to call in my meds to the pharmacy.

Report
I have been a patient at this facility four years now. Currently looking for a new place. I now agree with all of the negative reviews. I was seeing a physician's assistant. She was wonderful so I put up with the lackluster care from the other nurses and the staff. I had problems getting call backs getting prescriptions filled and being notified about anything in a timely manner. When I would address these problems I was told that for whatever reason it was my fault.
She left during Covid and every since then it has been downhill. Dr kablinska became my new doctor and he is sexist and outdated in his care. I say sexist because my husband went to him and was given immediate care with mri and meds. He refused all but one thing that my rheumatologist requested stating that he didn't feel it was necessary. She's a specialist at OHSU. He has delayed my treatment.
I agree with all of the negative reviews do not go here if you need ongoing consistent care. I no longer feel comfortable addressing issues with them and have been avoiding going except to refill medication.
