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.

  4. Dr. Duty was very knowledgeable and kind and explained things very well.

  5. Dr. Duty is a very caring provider.

  6. DR DUTY IS AN EXTREMELY CAPABLE SURGEON AND HAS A VERY GOOD BEDSIDE MANNER. I WILL REQUEST HIS SERVICES IN THE FUTURE IF I SHOULD NEED ANY OTHER UROLOGICAL PROCEDURES, DR DUTY AND HIS WHOLE TEAM ARE TERRIFIC! IN FACT, MUCH MORE THAN TERRIFIC. MY SURGERY WAS A SUPERB EXPERIENCE. I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT DR DUTY AND THE WHOLE SURGICAL TEAM!!

  7. Truly wanted to help me!!

  8. Like the nursing staff he made me feel like I was the center of his attention. Even though I knew he had other patients I did feel a priority. He was cordial and not condescending. He offered me multiple opportunities to ask questions or express concerns. He expressed some apprehensions about the difficulty of surgery but showed no evidence of lacking confidence.

  9. Very informative and very understanding they addressed any and all my concerns

  10. Absolutely the best care that I could imagine!

  11. Informative and caring.

  12. Utmost concern for my pain levels and understanding of the procedure. I was asked at each stage of the procedure for my name and birthdate and why I was there. From the admitting nurse to everyone I came in contact with until the operation was completed.

  13. Have nothing bad to say at all...look forward to working with him in the future

  14. Good
