Primary care in Portland, OR

I'm looking for a primary care physician who has experience with WLS patients in Portland. I'd prefer a female physician, if possible.

Thanks!

Hi Mlynn,

We checked our database and was not able to find any. Give your local hospitals a call and speak to someone in the bariatric department and they should now of PCP's that work with WLS patients. Also, give surgeon's offices a call as well and they should have some leads also.

Good Luck

I see Leslie Johnson at Legacy Good Samaritan. She's great! I was already halfway through the pre-op process when she became my PCP (my previous one retired), but she was totally on board with the decision. I'm not sure how much experience she has with WLS patients, but she always seems well-informed any time I've talked to her about it and gave me some input when I was debating between RNY and VSG.
