    As a veteran of hospitals having gone through 52 surgeries. Staying in hospitals from California to…read moreMinnesota. The only two times I had stayed at GSRMC was in 2002 for numbness on my right side. That I thought was stemming from an oncoming stroke. Which was impossible to have at my age at that time. It turned out to be something else. Plus back-to-back stays in 2022. For a sepsis/pseudomonas infection. In 2022. The first time I was admitted. They had me on the oncology unit. Apparently it was the only unit at the time that had a bed available for me. I had great nurses that were unforgettable. Especially a wonderful nurse named Bettina. Who was my night nurse at night. She went above, and beyond for me during the night. On my first night. I had another great night nurse who was super caring. I forgot her name though. I was happy to be in my hometown hospital. Especially the second time I got admitted in the same month. There was talk amongst the doctors that were treating me for the infection, and the doctors up at either Emanuel Hospital. Or OHSU Hospital in Portland. To have me go up to one of those two hospitals in Portland, and get treated up there. That left my mind with the question of. Were they going to take me up there by ambulance? Or have me ride in the LifeFlight helicopter? In the end. I just stayed at Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center again. I was in the new section of the hospital the second time, and I liked that section better. The rooms were bigger, and the LifeFlight helicopter pad. Was right out my window. Watching the LifeFlight helicopter take off/land at all hours. It was fun. Even though it did wake me up sometimes. The downside of my hospital stay was that the room was always cold. Same as with being in the old section. I had to have my blanket around my shoulders. With the sheet. To keep warm. Eating my meals was kind of a challenge too. While I was shivering.

    We have had several experiences at the emergency room at Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center,…read moreand every visit has been deeply disappointing. Patients are left sitting in the exam rooms for hours, with little to no communication. The lack of information or acknowledgment only adds to the stress of the experience. During our most recent visit, the doctor spent roughly two minutes with us in total before leaving and did not offer even the basic courtesy such as saying goodbye or "have a good day." The interaction felt rushed and inattentive. Frustratingly, we have repeatedly observed what appears to be a lack of urgency at the nursing station, including nurses and doctors standing around talking and laughing while patients remain unattended for long periods. The contrast between the fear and stress patients experience in the emergency room and the level of disengagement from the staff was very difficult to witness. We have also never had a positive experience in triage. The nurses are consistently unfriendly and behave as though basic questions are an inconvenience. In a setting where patients are often anxious, in pain, or frightened, triage should be the first point of reassurance and care. Instead, it has repeatedly felt dismissive and unwelcoming. There was also a recent situation where a young man in the waiting area passed out. The front desk staff and security team responded quickly, calmly, and with clear compassion. However, the nurse who approached appeared to show little urgency or concern, which was disappointing. Overall, the care experience in the ER at Good Samaritan in Corvallis has been consistently disappointing and falls short of what should be expected in a hospital setting where patient care should be timely, respectful, and caring. This pattern of substandard service is not only concerning, but unacceptable.

    I am so glad I found this office! I had a bad experience at my last dental office (in another…read morestate) and was super weary of dentist offices because of it. I had never had anxiety for a dentist visit before the last place, where they had tried to bully me into procedures that were not necessary so they could make more money. Luckily, there are places like this one, where doctors still care. Dr Schapper, Amanda, and all of the staff were so very kind and helpful throughout the process. The cleaning and the x-rays were even one of the most gentle and comfortable procedures I've had done (you know how those x rays things that go in your mouth can pinch and be super uncomfortable - not so here!) I actually ended up coming here after searching for an office that would work with my new job's insurance. Everyone I had called over the past months merely said, "we do not work with your insurance." When I called into this office, the woman said, "would you like me to call them and see for you? I know it can be tricky." She called, called right back, was able to tell me exactly what would be covered, and I made my appointment. Everything else continued along with this same kindness and help.

    I would say Dr. Kendall Wood is one of the best and kindest DDS in town. He has been my dentist for…read more2 years. recently, he has done frenectomy (to remove tongue tie) for my son as complimentary while other pediatricians hesitated doing this for a newborn and asked me to go to Portland for a such a small procedure. He has been doing this for 15 years. My wife and I are so grateful for that.
