Cascade Physicians, PC

I have been a patient of Dr. Le for about 10 years now. The office has changed in good ways over the years, but I can always count on being treated with kindness and respect. Dr. Le is more than just my primary care - she's the best care! I highly recommend this office, and have referred many of my friends over to Cascade Physicians without hesitation.

Avoid at all costs. This office is the epitome of a co-pay mill geared solely towards maximizing visits at the expense of your convenience as the patient. If you need anything - even simple things - it will require unnecessary visits. They make you jump through more hoops than a circus animal just to get basic stuff. Glad I finally left.

Dr. Priscilla Le is absolutely fantastic. Not only is she kind, attentive, respectful, and in possession of a GREAT memory, once I missed an appointment, and she called me and hopped on Zoom with me, immediately! That's a doctor who cares. I recommend Cascade Physicians highly.

I was aware of former patients' reviews at Cascade Physicians when I signed up, and yet I chose to give the clinic the benefit of the doubt. I was wrong; it serves me right for ignoring the warnings. The office is ran poorly; the doctor's follow up are incomplete and rushed. They have you come in for a visit even when a simple phone call would suffice. They just do not care. Less than mediocre health care provider.

In search of a new primary care doctor, I tried this clinic. The doctor's visit was one of the worst ever as she did not listen to me and preferred to talk about herself. The appointment was billed incorrectly and the records from my previous clinic were not collected correctly since the front desk did not take care of the details as discussed. I definitely didn't find my new place for healthcare after this visit!

While I appreciate the location and care that I have received from two separate physicians at this clinic, I am regularly disappointed by their medical assistant, Hector. I was going on a month long trip and needed thirty days of a prescription originally written by an outside specialist who had been unresponsive. Dr. Le had previously written a prescription for me under similar circumstances. Hector refused to call the on-call doctor "he won't write it because there is no guarantee you'll come back" as Dr. Le was out of town and then once I told him I had seen another doctor in the practice he said he would go to him with my request for the prescription. Instead of doing as he said, Hector, without my permission, called the outside specialist who miraculously answered the phone and then made me come in the DAY BEFORE MY WEDDING with full knowledge that I was only coming in for one month's refill and would then be seeking another specialist. I have since returned from traveling and called the new specialist that Cascade Physicians referred me to. He is not accepting new patients and is located very far away. I called Cascade Physicians to ask for a new referral as I was told by my insurance group that I needed one. Hector called me back and told me that they did not have any more doctors on their list to refer me to and that I would need to just go through the directory on my insurance website and call around. After explaining AGAIN that I need a referral in order to initiate care, he agreed to get a referral for me some time tomorrow. As I said, I appreciate the care I have received from physicians here but the lack of communication with actual doctors coupled with the run around the medical assistant has given me twice within a month has caused me seek care elsewhere.

I’ve been a patient at this practice for about 8 years, and watched it go steadily downhill, in terms of being proactive about patient’s health, and continuity of care. Although I believe Dr Peel and Dr Kasik are good physicians, it became harder and harder to get routine care; and I found myself having to go to “Dr. Walgreens”. The patient portal has many issues, and this medical practice is not able to share patient data electronically with either the OHSU or Legacy systems. They actually rely on fax or snail mail to transfer patient records. I am looking forward to establishing care with a physician in the legacy system, and forging a relationship with a physician who will be a good advocate for me, as well as following best practices.

My husband and I have been patients here for 10 years. Having seen 4 different physicians during this time we feel we have a very good feel for this practice and have never seen another of this high caliber. At our ages, we have seen a few, and one of us is a healthcare professional! Their expertise is top-notch; they treat us with incredible caring and compassion; they listen closely to us and our concerns; they offer referrals to specialists with great discrimination. We rarely wait in their waiting room for long--unusual as that sounds. We have friends who are also patients there and their impressions are the same. The negative reviews posted here ????

No longer accept Care Oregon? R.I.P.Dr. Kurz...

2 stars for the great office staff. Zero stars for the physicians and office manager. Lucky if the doctor spent 5 minutes with me. I was quoted old, discredited medication information about medications and as usual in Portland, my pain was completely ignored as if all pain is a plea for drugs. The way I was treated by my physician and the office manager was an insult to my intelligence and integrity. The young doctors Kasik for example come across as arrogant and believe exercise and PT is the answer to everything, regardless of your age, health conditions or ability to move. I could write a book about this bad experience but instead, I moved on. If you are healthy, exercise daily and only need a quick physical, this is the practice for you. If you have pre-existing medical issues, go elsewhere.
