Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.

Ratings and reviews

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 (135 Ratings, 46 Reviews)

The patient ratings score is an average of all responses to the question "How likely would you be to recommend this provider to your family and friends (on a scale of 0 to 10)" on our nationally-recognized NRC patient surveys.

  1. To the point with excellent bedside manners.

  2. I was extremely impressed with the staff but felt the time with the Dr was a bit disappointing. The assistant stated that he thought an angiogram would probably be recommended, when I asked about it I felt put down for even thinking it was a possibility. "are you wanting me to order tests for no reason?" He was more interested in responding to what he thought I would ask then listening to me and allowing me to express my thoughts. I believe he's a good Dr but could benefit by making an attempt to truly listen to his patients. I don't know if I should come back at some point or consider my case dismissed.

  3. Everyone was kind & respectful & answered all my questions well.

  4. We could sense that he knew what he was talking about.

  5. Both the resident and the surgeon were so very approachable and kind. They never made me feel like my problem was the least problem of their day.

  6. Explained condition in detail; answered all questions. Felt more hopeful than before.

  7. This clinic is very busy This clinic is also very respected in the community and in high demand

  8. He was very kind, to the point, and straightforward about what he thought I needed.

  9. Excellent experience, Dr Dogan went out of his way to help me.

  10. I have had very poor follow up. I had to call back repeatedly to have my needs meet

  11. I wish it was more options that surgery only considered

  12. He gave me the options , all gave me info to make my own choices

  13. Dr. Dogan is was outstanding. Very confident and reassuring.

  14. Straight forward and able to explain my problem

  15. Feels a little rushed but will take tone to answer questions

  16. Experienced, knowledgeable, and caring

  17. Dr Dogan was very easy to talk with about my concerns. He was very clear in his explanation about how the surgery would be done. He frequently checked to make sure I understood what he was saying and if I had any questions.

  18. Took all the time to explain everything and all treatment options.

  19. I really liked the doctor. The Resident wasn't friendly and started off as if I knew what he was talking about.

  20. They were observant and diligent in following up with me in other areas.

  21. Efficient, polite, and understanding

  22. Dr Dugan and his staff set me completely at ease with their warm and reassuring mannerI had heard that Dr Dugan was a gifted surgeon and clinician so was so grateful for his time and diagnosis

  23. Everyone is of the highest level of professionalism

  24. The very best and friendly experience possible. This doctor treated me about 10 years ago. I am happy that my current insurance permits me to see him again.

  25. Very professional, great bedside manner, listened to me, gave me options, spoke to me in verbiage as a patient that I understood, made me feel that my concerns mattered

  26. My entire experience was absolutely wonderful!

  27. As I was uncertain and scared about my health, as an older lady, u was comforted by the 3 person clinicians. They explained my procedure to my satisfaction. More comfortable now

  28. There was a resident, med student and the provider in the room. It felt very rushed and I did not feel like my symptoms or concerns were being listened to. Was told very bluntly that what I was being seen for couldn't possibly be causing my symptoms and to go see a different specialist. I trust the provider that symptoms may not be caused by the condition I was being seen for but I felt very brushed offed and the appointment only lasted about 10 minutes. Bedside manner could be improved on greatly.

  29. Nice

  30. All good thank you
