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. 

Visit our billing and insurance page for more information.

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. Always good. Even though I have anxiety in medical situations/facilities I always find this clinician is to be kind, compassionate and a calming presence at my appointments. Even when test results are not quite what I want to hear it is well explained along with an estimated, general timeline and I don't leave the appointment feeling "doomed." This is such a refreshing change from so many doctors who tend to focus on only the negative aspects of any Issues.

  2. Both the nurse and Dr were very knowledgeable and concerned for me as a patient

  4. Dr Gradin is amazing. Explained thinks and very involved with my care

  5. Doctor Gradin was kind, pleasant, and obviously knowledgeable and competent. He quickly assessed my mom's condition and problem. And made additional recommendations regarding aftercare and supplements. We discovered that Mom needs a full eye exam and also new glasses. I wish Doctor Gradin could do that for her. But apparently her current insurance will not allow that. So we will have to go elsewhere for those.
