Accepting new patients

No ratings to display.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.

About me

Dr. Omar Fares is a family physician. He loves the variety that family medicine offers. He decided to pursue family medicine to be able to care for entire families, including children, adults and pregnant women. He draws deep satisfaction from building long-term relationships with his patients.

During medical school at OHSU, Dr. Omar enjoyed mentoring immigrant and refugee high school students, facilitating courses on structural health care disparities, and providing free health care to underserved patients.

He was born and raised in the Detroit, the youngest of four brothers. His mother and father immigrated to Detroit from the Middle East. He was raised on the pillars of respect, inclusivity and hard work.

When he's not working, Dr. Fares enjoys singing and dancing with his nieces and nephews, traveling, and exploring the outdoors by foot, bike, snowshoes and skis. On more restful days, you can find him listening to Motown and rooting for Detroit and University of Michigan sports teams.

Insurance

Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher. Visit the billing and insurance section of our site for more information.
