I hestitated for many reasons but my body eventually decided for me. I had everything removed: cervix, ovaries and Fallopian tubes. I had a large fibroid and Stage 4 endometriosis. I figured out that I was in pain for 10+ years. I thought this was my fate. I was having a particularly rough time in October and my iron was way below normal. It was determined that I had to make this decision for my health. The whole process to get me in was rushed but totally organized, thought out and I was handled with the best of care. Dr. Pendergrass is phenomenally talented. I did not have any pain as I recovered. I was out having breakfast three days after surgery! Legacy Hospital was top notch, Dr Pendergrass so skilled and kind, informative and truly wants her patients to live their best lives. Katerina, Dr Pendergrass assistant is fantastic and makes sure you have all the information you need. I highly highly recommend Dr Pendergrass if you're considering a hysterectomy. My regret is not doing this sooner. I suffered for too long. Best decision ever!

Dr. Pendergrass performed a hysterectomy on me in June 2022 and my experience with her was…read moreFANTASTIC. If you are looking for a physician who will listen to you, advocate for you, and take your pain seriously, I strongly recommend Dr. Pendergrass. I felt respected and heard throughout all my interactions with her. I had been living with bad period pain and was diagnosed with fibroids by a different doctor who referred me to her, but I figured that excruciating monthly pain was just the price of having a uterus and I should just live with it. During our first consultation Dr. Pendergrass encouraged me to not downplay the pain I was in and gave me facts and information that helped me decide to go forward with the hysterectomy, which was an option I hadn't even considered before talking to her. When I had concerns up until the morning of surgery, she took the time to discuss and answer my questions fully. The surgery went extremely smoothly, and the post-op pain at its worst was less than half of what I had previously experienced every month. Dr. Pendergrass responded very quickly to all of my questions through the patient app both before and after surgery. She is honest, funny, she listened to me, and and she introduced me to treatment options I didn't know were available to me. My life is so much better and wish I would have seen her years ago!

She is amazing and she deserves a raise. Thank you Brittanie for helping me!

I went to this location for my second pregnancy and quickly learned why leaving was the best…read moredecision and went to a birthing clinic instead. The appointments with OB's can last anywhere from 5-15 minutes and you get basic attention and a fat bill afterwards. They also will charge you even if the doctor comes in to say "have any questions?" Wash their hands, type a few notes and say goodbye. I received my bill after only being "seen" three times but the last 5 minute visit bumped me into their "group of 4-6 visits" where they billed me for even more than what I was seen for. Don't go to this clinic, look at all of your options of what is going to give you the most support for your pregnancy. A birthing center give you a full hour of attention, love and support that an expecting mother deserves. The clinic is ruthless for bills and making money only. Their intentions are not to make you feel well cared for. At the end of the day, they are a money making machine with below average attention to their patients.

I haven't had my hysterectomy yet but she's been very efficient and responsive, explaining the risks and the time frame for insurance processing. Her assistant Elizabeth and her colleague Christine, who work in the Portland office while she's in surgery or at the Tualatin office, are kind, thorough, and very helpful. If you have advanced gynecology concerns, or you need gender affirming hormones, Dr Bird is a wonderfully reliable provider.

My experience happened at Lake Oswego GYN a few years ago. I was recommended to Dr. Zaander by a…read morefriend who was a patient. I found the office staff to be very short, not particularly welcoming or kind. At first, I felt well cared for by Dr. Zaander. She diagnosed me with a rapidly growing fibroid and we decided immediate surgery was my best option, to remove both the fibroid and my uterus. She did the surgery. It was quite serious, I had to have a c-section due to the fibroid's size. After several months of recovery, my healing was slow and I had alarming symptoms. I started doing some research and came to suspect that my bladder had been damaged by a surgical tool during surgery and that there was hole in my bladder-called a fistula. I brought my concerns (using the word fistula) to the doctor's attention in both an email AND during an office visit. She refused to to admit that a fistula could be possible and kept saying "give it time" and "keep doing kegels" and was dismissive of my concerns. She tried to rush through the appointment until I INSISTED that she refer me to a bladder specialist. A week later, the specialist diagnosed a fistula after a five minute exam, and that's when Dr. Zaander abruptly ended all communication with me. After that first surgery, I suffered for nine months with the fistula before I could have corrective surgery. I've since talked to two other people who have had negative experiences at this office, feeling like they were not listened to. Had I been taken seriously, I would have nine months of my life back. I missed a lot of work and suffered needlessly because a doctor didn't want to admit error.

I can't say enough good things about Dr Zaander and her entire team. They're not only extremely…read moreknowledgeable and thorough and keep their appointments running on time, but they are also extremely compassionate and understanding, and they really listen to what their clients have to say. I never feel rushed or talked down to, or like any concern that I might have is trivial or invalid. Choosing an OBGYN is an extremely personal decision, and one that can be very nerve-wracking for a lot of women because it does place you in such a vulnerable position. Yes, Dr Zaander's bedside manner is a very welcome change, not just for those of us who have been getting our annual exams for years, but she is also the perfect doctor for anyone who is feeling nervous about going to their very first visit, or even those who might have a lot of anxiety about the overall experience in general. Her calming nature is guaranteed to instantly put each and every one of her patients at ease, both old and new alike. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Zaander 100%!

Very professional and personal.

Was on antibiotics for nearly 4 months and did not improve, was in pain and exhausted my sick leave. Finally got imaging done and never heard back from doc after many follow up calls. Called them and they said they "didn't have a copy of results" even though I had received them a week prior. Kept calling and 3 weeks later a random person said "looks good" and I said I wanted the doctor to interpret it because I'm still not okay. She said well "she's busy can she leave you a voicemail?" Are you kidding me?! Never received a call or voicemail. Incompetent, no follow-up. I feel silly for not having moved to a different doc sooner, but I wanted the consistency since she did my surgery. Do not compromise your health at this place.
