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.

The doctor came in prior to procedure and took the time to explain step by step what she and the team would be doing. She stated that OHSU is a teaching school and she would have a student working with her. She also said that she has done over a thousand of these procedures and it is pretty straight forward. She made me feel confident by her being relaxed and acting like she had done this before. Her confidence showed!
On time, treated with tespect
Thorough
Everyone was professional, kind, and caring
I luv Dr. Fang. She is a perfect doctor.
Very good at communicating with me about my health issue and preventive physical y
Explained things very well and ask questions that were appropriate.
She was informative and took time to address my questions and concerns.
Great staff and very caring Drs and nurses
Top notch health care
Dr. Feng is very direct and explains the procedure and possible side-effects very clearly. I appreciate her frankness and felt confident in her abilities.
Doctor and staff did fine jobs.
Amazing care, thank you!
My experience with the clinician was good except I felt rushed. I am extremely disappointed in how long it takes to get scheduled for very important time sensitive procedures. The scheduling is very poor at OHSU. It takes too much time to get scheduled for appointments and surgery's!
She is very nice but only have had one visit so not sure about recommendations
Dr. Fang went over the test results and gave me her conclusions. I had a hard time hearing her because she was wearing a mask. I have had questions after my visit and I'm not sure how to get them answered.
Dr. Fang is all around great! Love her as my doctor.
Dr. Fang and her team are amazing. I have never had a physician who personalized my care so much.
Dr Fang explained everything about the procedure well. After the pathology results were posted, I still have not received her write up on what the results meant for me. It's been over one week.
She is very approachable, personable and knows her stuff and explains it all in an easy to understand way.
Everyone was knowledgeable and so nice
Very good , got to learn about my condition that I have and what can go wrong .
She is good but very cut and dry when explaining next steps, as I was clean however I have no answers as to why I am bleeding. Just told to go to my doctor if it continues.
The most significant challenge was understanding and communicating about data contained in most recent MRI
Dr Fang has been very helpful and informative through these stressful times. She has been very engaged with my case and is great about answering any questions throughout. I feel very fortunate to have her and her team in my corner.
Great experience
Couldn't have been better!
Professional
Dr Fang is excellent. Her communication skills were ok.
She was quite good. Wore a mask which I do believe is important. I couldn't catch all her words. But she very nicely repeated when asked!! Feel she is very good!!
