NOT EXACTLY GOOD BEDSIDE MANNERS, Dr. Maxwell Furr…read more PDX ENT & Audiology fired me as a patient for missing two appointments over four years when my ear hurts and I need a cancer scope!!! They call themselves audiologists and ENT surgeons, but they are utterly TONE DEAF socially. Way too much West Hills high-altitude attitude here, if you know what I mean. And the staff does not give a HOOT. Sport to them. They do not seem happy. When I asked for my patient records, they said I needed to sign up on their patient portal to obtain my records-- THIS, they are telling me AFTER I am being terminated as a patient. And the rub is this: on this provider portal, there is an option for text/ email reminders. I NEVER KNEW ABOUT their portal. Why the FUDGE was I not shown this system after the first missed appointment!!!??? COMPLETE JOKE OF AN OPERATION... and the world is too nutty for another JOKER! Do others feel this way??? It was a technology issue but the company took no time to figure out what was broken.... I AM NOT A DOCTOR but that does not seem like good medicine. BAD medicine it seems. For reference, this was my message to them upon learning that I was terminated as a patient when needing urgent care... " Subject General Medical Q&A Dr. Maxwell Furr Patient ABCXYZ******* Message For the record: after four years of appointments, I have NEVER received a SINGLE piece of electronic communication in the way of reminders texts, emails or phone calls from PDXENT despite PDXENT having my cell number AND email. Geezus. Broken ****** system... take some responsibility, PDXENT. There was a technology/ security reason why I missed my appointment it turns out. I have many devices and calendars... there was a security lock on a key sharing calendar... I LOVE text-based reminders... or email, BUT PDXENT is THE ONLY provider I have that has NOT historically (say, in the past four years) provided me any reminder notification. My ear hurts, it is not exactly easy to find providers... It is not even that I think the PDXENT patient-termination policy is draconian (yes-- DRACONIAN), ...it is that PDXENT never took time to figure out the disconnect after the first "strike". When did electronic notification become available???? Why did we not deal with this on the first "strike"... My guess is that operations are broken, the staff is generally pissed and the owners are geared on Porsches. Blow. ...that sums it up for me. They can do just that.

Dr. Shaffer was extremely thorough in his evaluation, explaining everything about the procedure thereby eliminating the fear. He ordered an additional test, explaining why, what the tests may reveal, and what to do in the interim. It was my first time at this practice, and with Dr. Shaffer, and I was very satisfied. It took two months to get the appointment, that is my only complaint, but that seems to be the norm in Portland for specialists.

When I pointed it out to him, he made excuses and didn't apologize. He squeezed sanitizer on and proceeded with scope. I received communication from Sasha that my calcium was 3.2! I am dead with a calcium level of 3.2! I am a nurse so I'm incredibly concerned that someone is leaving this as a message. Then I was told by Dr. Kim's P.A. That my surgery failed. He pulled something from my nostril. I asked what it was. He told me it was my bone. The next day I wrote Dr. Kim. He told me it was a splint that was supposed to dissolve. I repeatedly receive phone calls requesting feedback. I repeatedly left messages regarding concerns. No one circled back. The office doesn't care if it's giving false medical education/information.

After seeing numerous ENTs in Austin, Houston, and Portland, having an MRI and a CT scan, and…read moreenduring a sialendoscopy--and continuing to deal with intermittent severely swollen parotid glands for more than 4 years--I cringed at the thought of seeing another ENT. But when my glands were so swollen that they impeded my bite and caused intense pain in my ears, I had no choice but to find another ENT. But I didn't see just any ENT. I saw Dr. Michael Mitchell at Vancouver ENT. He listened and examined and did something no other expert had tried: he put me on a 2-week round of antibiotics, hypothesizing that I had a low-grade infection that had persisted through the years. I returned to Dr. Mitchell's office a month after our visit, and for the first time in years, my glands were consistently soft, and the swelling had not returned. And 2 months after the first visit, I've been asymptomatic. Dr. Mitchell did what no other doctor--some being experts in the field--had done and had been able to accomplish. I highly recommend Dr. Mitchell for his medical skills, his ability to listen carefully without interruption and to think outside the box, and his sweet, kind, and caring nature. He is an asset to the ENT community.

Beware of this doctor! We had ordered orthopedics and were told if we pay cash and not bill the…read moreinsurance the cost would be $400. However if we do bill our insurance the cost would be $618. We decided to use our insurance because we had met our deductible and therefore our cost was minimal. What he doesn't tell you is the insurance negotiated price is $370.36. At least for our insurance, which payed 90% and we payed $33.00. Each. When I picked up the shoe inserts for my husband and myself they said we owed $618. Total. I stupidly payed because I thought I still had not covered my deductible. I called my insurance and found out I had payed my deductible and not only that, they charged me $1236. Not $618. This is cash by the way!!! I had to dispute the charge at my bank and notified my insurance. My insurance payed them the negotiated price. My problem here is even if they were going to charge me the cash price the cost would have been $400. Each not $618. Each. I wonder how many other patients have been ripped off.
