Before scheduling an appointment

  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.

  1. Everyone was helpful and we are starting to get the answers we need to provide the best care for my son.

  2. I really appreciate how Dr Hunter takes time to talk and address all things

  3. Things didn't go as planned to begin with, IV anesthesia was the plan, and I saw on my chart updates he was actually intubated. When we went to the PACU to see my son, one of the first things that was told to us, was that he was intubated and the reason why, there was food in his esophagus and stomach no one anticipated in seeing. To avoid the risk of choking when he woke up they immediately stopped to intubate and then continue the procedure. Loved the up front awareness. Then, Dr Hunter showed the pictures from the procedure explained her findings in details, and was very thorough with her thoughts and everything too. She even let us know what my son was experiencing was Emergence Delerium snd not to be alarmed.

  4. Dr Hunter has been absolutely amazing to work with on my son's medical team. She has listened to us, talked to us so we can understand the problems, let us know how fast we should move to get procedures but had a calmness about it and explained everything so well to us and calmly. She took steps to get us set up with a dietician in a timely manner. She's been absolutely incredible to have as a provider on my son's medical team and we are so grateful.
