Planned Parenthood - NE Portland Health Center

I've never left a review anywhere but I wanted to do so for this clinic, because they were truly amazing. I had to have surgical abortion after being freshly postpartum and having some risk of a potentially ectopic pregnancy. Before confirming whether they thought my pregnancy was safe or not they also let me know about resources to ease my worries if I did want to continue the pregnancy, like lactation consultants, etc. My procedure was done by Dr Shaalini Ramahndan. She was an angel! It went wonderfully. The staff was very informed, helpful, were able to properly medicate me for the procedure to have me safely breastfeed afterward. The anesthesiologist talked to me personally about my options. My doctor held my hand as I went under for the procedure which made me feel super safe. My doctor let me know what she found during the procedure personally, and had me come back for blood work the next day. I had such a positive experience here. I was terrified to have this done but it ended up being comfortable and much easier than I expected it to be.

Everything about my experience here was wonderful. I arrived early for my appointment knowing I wouldn’t be able to be seen early, and the guy at the front desk was very nice and helpful. He helped with my insurance and checking me in, and explained it would be a bit of a wait. I anticipated waiting longer but as soon as my appointment time arrived they called me back, to my surprise. The rest only took about 40 minutes. Jaime was awesome and super fun to talk to, made me feel very comfortable and welcome. Tasha was wonderful as well and made me feel comfortable and safe and provided excellent care. This was one of the best planned parenthood locations I have been to, the staff is excellent and the facilities are clean and nice, plenty of parking. Highly recommend this location.

I was accidentally late to my appointment & was at a wrong location until I was sent here & they STILL took me in! :) Everyone here was very friendly, understanding, & made my experience comfortable while I was terrified for my first time. Jaimie (can’t spell his name) brought me in after checking in, he was extremely nice & made the experience somehow fun with his awesome energy. Tasha was very informative & helped me understand everything I needed to know, very happy she was my doctor. Would most definitely come back to this location again when needed!

Everyone here was lovely, supportive and gave me all the information and care I could ask for. Yes the wait time is long, and they are constantly full. But it's not the staffs fault, they need more locations. True education and care means taking the time with your patients to make sure they understand the full situation and options. They give you the time and respect you deserve.

since the second i walked through the door, every person i interacted with was so friendly and supportive. especially the new nurse, Iz (i think is her name) .. she was so accommodating and accepting. i felt totally at ease and taken care of and heard. thank you to everyone at this facility for everything you do and how you show up

I am at a loss for words writing this review. Planned Parenthood is a place that many of us took for granted until the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Walking into this absolutely beautiful location after experiencing the enormous and heartbreaking attack on women's rights was an emotional experience. I found myself gazing all around the facility filled with a deep gratitude that I am able to access the reproductive care that I need while many other women do not have that opportunity in the United States anymore. It changed the way I experienced what would normally have been simply another doctor's visit.

The building itself is well-built and designed — without a doubt the most beautiful location I've been to. The staff at the front desks were kind and helpful, and I was able to receive affordable care thanks to them. The providers were professional and went far out of their way to ensure a pleasant experience for me. The service that I received (insertion of an IUD) was painful, as expected, but it was immaterial to me; the fact is, I am fortunate enough to have the opportunity and freedom to endure that pain to protect my health.

Planned Parenthood, thank you for all that you do.

I just want to truly say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I wish I could bring your entire team a hug, cookies and coffee. I was absolutely terrified going in and every single person supported me. I had been told different pricing which they honored after realizing I really was doing the best I could as I was coming from a neighboring state with strict laws. The staff was patient with me while I was panicking and didn’t get annoyed like most drs do when it comes to things like needles. My procedure was done much much later than I had ever planned making it be even harder after Mother’s Day/ my birthday. Again THANK YOU I will be forever grateful for my experience with you and thank you for dealing with my emotional asssh!

Went in for a new birth control prescription and a Pap smear exam and was treated with such care from the front desk area to the back end. Selena, Dr. Tatianna, Jaime and the team were all such a joy to work with. Highly recommend!!

I did not find the front desk staff to be very helpful. They were extremely dissmissive, hardly made eye contact, and would start conversations with eachother while i was in front of them being helped. I just didn't find them to have very encouraging or comforting personalities for the setting they work in. The rest of the staff was the best i've ever experienced, hence the 5 stars. The doctors and nurses were so nice and comforting and answered all of my questions. They fulfilled every single need i had and made no judgements, i was so grateful. Things will take a very long time even if you schedule an appointment but they're doing their best to get you seen on time.

Easily the most patient, informative and kind staff. They are so good at what they do. I was so anxious and they had me laughing. They work so hard and do their best for each patient and have walk ins. Even though I always have an apt. I have had waits of up to an hour, who cares? SO HAPPY that I get treated here and not somewhere else. Please be easy going with the staff, burn out is real and they are not emotional sponges. They are magnificent. Parking (check) Clean facilities (check) Compassion (check)Cool staff of excellent medical practitioners (check).

I have no words to describe how amazing my experience here was. It’s been so emotional for me to get my procedure, but the staff was out of this world. They were extremely kind, supportive, and understanding. They helped with everything I needed and more. They really helped me get through this tough time and I cannot thank them enough for their kindness and support.

Lovely staff working there, kind, and informative. My wait wasn’t long and I was checked in quickly. I interacted with 4 employees and all of them were diligent and helpful with everything including answering questions etc. I felt comfortable, heard, and safe. Definitely recommend this clinic.

As a 28 year old female student working toward a Microbiology degree and of reasonable, sound mind I wanted to leave a realistic review. I usually read all reviews and ones here worried me, but they must be out right lies because that is not the place I visited. The staff were AMAZING, I was called in so fast I barely had time to text a friend back. I was treated with the utmost respect, kindness and openness by every single staff member (I interacted directly with 5). And despite feeling extremely uncomfortable and sick due to a progressed bladder infection, they made me smile and feel completely at ease. This was, by far, the best experience I have ever had with any doctor's office. I would rather never go to a regular doctor again. Positively wonderful first time experience, thank you to all the staff for just being awesome.

I was helped as soon as I got there and was able to get everything done with no insurance. They were super nice, made me feel comfortable, and did everything they could to ease my anxiety. My nurse was the best, and not only was it cheaper but I got the most put of what i paid for including funding for birth control. They were clean and precise and I've never felt better about myself and my health. Thank you guys!!!

The ladies here are wonderful. Wait time can be a little long, but the staff more than makes up for it. Everyone from the front desk to the nurse practitioner or doctor are always really nice, and they always seem genuinely concerned about my health instead of just rushing me in and out. I've been unemployed for a bit and they've always worked with me to make sure my services were discounted or completely covered. They also take the time to explain everything and answer any possible question you might have. This is definitely the one to go to.

EVERYONE.... from registration, to lab draws, to the practitioners....everyone was TOP NOTCH. And I admit, having been a nurse for a long time, my standards are high. I felt well informed and supported holistically as a person throughout every step of my care..... even through a tough and worrisome circumstance. Everyone was really genuine, competent and capable, and most of all compassionate. I can't speak highly enough of their services. I highly recommend this facility.

I had a GREAT experience here. Made an appt in advance, so I was in and out within an hour - wait time included. The staff was very knowledgeable, friendly, and knew their stuff. The doctor was hands-down the best physician I've ever had. I will be returning to this location and would recommend it.

They play 90's slow jams in the lobby. 10/10, no notes

I used to have blue cross blue shield insurance and recently I have dropped them as an insurance provider. I'm on birth control and with my insurance they were only allowing me 1 pill pack a month so I would have to go in every 3 weeks since I skip the brown pills, I came into the NE branch and got on C Care and now today I got the rest of my birth control packs for the next 14 months! They were super nice and the front desk was really helpful.

Great place!
Whenever I need to get an annual check up I come here, whenever my friends need help making good parenting choices I come here.
If I need services becuase of an accident I come here!
I love this place, the service is wonderful, your treated with respect, and absolute kindness.
I have never had a bad experience with this place. I highly recommend anyone come here if they are in need.
