Before scheduling an appointment
- 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.
- 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.

Dr. Kennecke answered all my questions, gave good advice, was calm, considerate and educational during my visit. I left feeling heard, understood and with more clarity than my previous appointment.
Dr. K. Listens and responds to my questions. He doesn't have a patriarchal approach to my care, but rather shares what he knows and what he doesn't know.
I submitted my questions ahead of time and when the Dr. Came on he didn't know why I had scheduled the video appointment.
Dr Kennecke is world class! I'm over the moon happy that he took my case, and I'm so incredibly thankful for him!
