My opinion of Wapato gradually changed over time. Having concluded my employment with Wapato, I…read moreopine that no driver should be caused to feel continually eroded as a human being by the weakest links of management. Adding insult to injury, company protocols force drivers to contact these same unfriendly, hostile and intimidating managers to report a variety of particular work issues. Compounding that reality is the habitude used by some members of management whereby they attack drivers with reverse blame when they are reporting an issue beyond an employee's human control. Eventually I concluded that given members of management seemed to enjoy the psychological abuse of Wapato employees. In my opinion the applicable actors within Wapato's management seemed to function like a cabal that operated within a toxic capitalistic environment. That said, I have moved on to a new employer. In my current position I feel blessed to work for a company that genuinely loves and supports its drivers. Continually my new employer demonstrates the higher qualities of the human being. Everyday I am now surrounded by a healthy work environment that fills its employees with positive inspiration that promotes self-worth. To my former comrades at Wapato I wish you good luck!

If there were a BILLION STARS available, it wouldn't be enough!! I've been utilizing medical…read moretransport since before 5 Star came along, and what a PLEASURE it has been to see this company grow! This is THE BEST medical transportation company I have EVER ridden with, and I have ridden with almost all that are in this area! Their vehicles are always clean and well maintained. I've never heard 'funky' engine noises, or have wheel-wobbling like I've experienced with other companies. And the EMPLOYEES!!! OMG, the kindest, sweetest people! I have never met a grumpy face!!! And I LOVE that they TEXT YOU when they are within 15 minutes of arriving!! So nice to know, and have time to put on your coat and shoes or do anything else before they get there! I've had the JOY of riding with Drew, Brian, Miranda, Deb, Jacquie, Lori, Cole, Syd, Mike, Gary and their newest driver Shelly (forgive me if I spelled names wrong!), and they were ALL great drivers and AWESOME people! If you need a ride, THIS IS THE COMPANY TO CALL!

My Mom is recovering from emergency surgery. I needed to find someone on very short notice who…read moreprovides wheelchair transport to drive her home. I reserved a ride with Five Star Special Transport on Sunday night for Monday afternoon and was worried they might not be able to arrange a pickup with less than 24 hours notice. Jacqueline reached out to me by 10am Monday, confirmed the time of our ride, and answered all my questions. The driver, Gary, arrived on time, helped my mother get into the wheelchair, and made sure she was very securely placed in the van. The van itself was modern, clean, and well-equipped. Both Jacqueline and Gary were kind and professional. I'll definitely be using their service again when my Mom needs it. Thank you, guys!

Lucked out with same day door to door service - We've been able to call on these guys a couple of…read moretimes in a hurry and pinch with very fast response and flexibility. Sometimes emergencies or rush situations happen and scheduling medical transport with wheelchair capability can be a serious hassle since most transport requires advanced scheduling and planning. COMPARISONS - Sadly many insurance don't cover non-emergency medical transport. Getting old isn't cheap and medical transport isn't either, compared to other similar services ANEMT rates are average to a little better. MetroWest transport is the most popular and great, but they are constantly booked at least 1-2 days out or 5-10 hours for same day. MetroWest also has stair capable wheelchairs and stretchers by request and door to door service. TriMet offers basic medical transport for fairly cheap via shuttle, but they don't offer door to door so you'll need someone to push if the chair isn't motorized and electric. Uber and Lyft have wheelchair capable vehicles, but again, no door to door service and requires advanced scheduling. Interestingly Kaiser Washington State insurance covers non-emergency transport, but not in Oregon. Above and beyond - Along with being able to respond quickly with door to door service, they helped with transferring inside the home to and from the wheelchair. Aways super nice and friendly guys. Easy pay via credit card through a tex message link or over the phone. Have questions, be sure to ask, they are very helpful and accommodating. Good service, responsive, fast and better pricing than most. Thanks for taking good care of our family.

It was a great experience with a professional, compassionate, and experienced driver who arrived on time and waited on site to also transport my daughter home. This is a local small business with a big heart for assisting patients.

I will use this business again and I highly recommend them.

We found this Urgent Care that was about a 25 minute drive and they close in 45 minutes. We made it on time and they did not rush even though they were closing soon. They took care of her and we left feeling the diagnosis was spot on (she had strep) and the care was awesome. Needless to say we all ended up coming back the next day to have some tests ran and made a family trip out of it. From the front desk (Ella) to the nurse (Beth) to the Doctor (Dr. Klatt), they all were amazing. Kind, friendly, and very patient. When you're traveling you don't want to head to an urgent care and sit there losing time away from your vacation. But, they have made this time away the best possible experience it could have been given the circumstances. Thank you and I highly, highly recommend this place.
