I have been seeing Dr. Callahan for over 20 years, following a traumatic foot infection that…read morehospitalized me for a week. Since that time I have been treated with respect and courtesy every time I visit or call, and have never had any problems with The Doc or his staff. Moving to N. California for a couple of years I was forced to see a different podiatrist who could not offer the quality of service I received at Santiam Foot Clinic. I was very glad to return to Oregon and reconnect with this office. My wife is also a patient here, and has also received great care. Dr. Callahan always asks me about her during my visits, and is always friendly and caring. He enjoys his job and loves people, and it shows in his behaviour. You can expect to be regaled with a variety of stories while he tends to your digits and I frequently find myself in near hysterics at his tales, but this never detracts from the medical professionalism with which we are treated. Whenever I visit I'm greeted warmly and professionally at the front desk, and when I've had billing questions (which has been rare) they've been handled courteously.

If I could give zero stars, I would. The office manager, April (who also happens to be the doctor's…read morewife), is unbelievably rude, unprofessional, and downright combative. She racially profiled a patient and refused to listen when I tried to explain that, as the administrator of a self-funded Taft-Hartley (union) plan, only certain people have access to my records. Ever heard of PHI or HIPAA? Clearly not--especially given some of your unprofessional responses to negative reviews. To make matters worse, she refused to see the patient despite a valid insurance ID card, falsely claiming it was "expired." It wasn't. The date on the card simply indicated when it was last revised. But rather than admit her mistake, they doubled down and refused service. Absolutely unacceptable. Avoid this place at all costs. If this is how they treat patients before even stepping into the exam room, I can only imagine how careless they are with actual medical care.

Figure I follow up on this. Cascade fixed my broken ankle with surgery while Coastline said I…read moredidn't need surgery and/ or refused to help. And, surgery was the only option. Still burned about Coastline screwing with me. I know it wasn't about money and what they could bill, not on Medicaid/ Medicare. Guess they didn't care I was walking around in pain on a broken ankle. I am now scheduled to go back for my other foot reconstruction surgery with Cascade clinic, same one I had the ankle break. It's time. I'm really glad I was referred to Cascade. Seems there are some providers out there who still care about you. If you are looking at Coastline, you may want to look elsewhere. Also, zero apologies from Coastline. Nice :/

Dr…read more Scott was thorough during my appointment, but then out of the blue I got a call from Summit Orthotics to make an appointment to get an orthotic. This was never discussed with Dr. Scott, and when I asked reception why I needed an orthotic, I was told I would have to make another appointment to find out, which would be another $45 copay! Why wasn't this discussed in person when I was there so I could tell Dr. Scott that I already had inserts and what shoes I used. None of my shoes would have space for an orthotic which would be a few hundred dollars!

I fell on one knee the day after Christmas and it was slow to heal. I had my GP x-ray it, and to…read morebetter understand what I was in for, I got an app't with an orthopedist. This was easy, I was taken in quickly, and preregistered easily on MyChart, the corporation's proprietary website. Check-in at the clinic took about 5 minutes, I was taken to the examination room at the appointed time, and Dr. Carol Chang, a DO specializing in sports medicine, examined me thoroughly. First-rate bedside manner, listened well, and did not push chargeable procedures. She called up the x-rays on her desktop computer and explained to me what was going on. I was given exercises to do, as we were in accord about proceeding conservatively. I have no hesitation in recommending this clinic or this provider. I am given to understand that when Salem Health acquired this clinic on 9/29/23, nearly all the former staff were retained.

In 2016 I was boarding a flight to IND, returning from PDX and placing my bag in the overhead…read morecompartment. I twisted around from my seat and heard a pop, then felt pain in my knee. By the time I arrived home, my knee was sore and swollen. My PCP referred me to a sports medicine specialist for an MRI, and I learned that I'd torn my ACL tendon. My options were limited, cortisone shot, ice and care with my movements. The only other option was surgery. Fast-forward to 2020 after my relocation to Oregon. I'd done okay since, with the occasional pain and swelling. I was excited to explore the wilderness and go hiking in the PNW! I joined my kids on a trip to Silver Falls and made the challenging 7 mile hike, but paid for it afterwards and knew I couldn't continue without addressing my knee. I got another MRI locally confirming the damage and delayed seeing an Orthopedic doctor during the pandemic. Once I felt more comfortable, I went to a consultation at Hope Orthopedic and heard, once again, that my options were either to live with the pain and swelling and be careful OR to have surgery. I gave the green light and got a call to schedule with Willamette Surgery Center (a couple blocks down the street) within a couple of weeks. I'd received a call outlining everything, but no reminder about test requirements and had to delay because of a lack of a required Covid test 2 days prior. Pretty unusual, I thought, in this day and age of text reminders! Either way, I pushed it about 2 weeks out and confirmed my 18+ adult driver/health supervisor for the next few days. My friend was great to be there (Willamette Surgery Center) for me and took good care of me afterwards. I've since seen my doctor and had multiple physical therapy appointments and am on my way to recovery! The PT has been essential in the success and I've enjoyed seeing the progress. Thanks to all at Hope Orthopedics, I'm looking forward to hiking again without pain this Spring!
