Mid Willamette Family Medicine

While husband was an easy going person, his wife is strict and rigid. I liked him but couldn't stand her. She calls the shots at this place, bossy I'd say. But I do feel the husband didn't listen regarding a sciatica injury. He kept sending me in for test after test for my spine/back. I kept telling him the pain came from my hip/butt on down. Now I am permanently disabled after a full year of pain and useless tests. Nice guy but.........glad I left there. She is just over the top with rigidity.

This place discriminates against parents rights to choose the best healthcare practice for their family. I spoke to the receptionist in depth regarding our sensitive situation and she encouraged me to fill out the new patient packets and stated that the doctors are very family oriented. So I printed and completed the packets with full medical history for 6 members of my family which took a lot of time. They denied my family for the exact reason I called about in the first place. They could have saved everyone time by being honest up front. Instead they wasted my time and obviously they only accept patients who do things their way. So don't go there if you prefer to have medical freedom!

They take good care of me. I have a more holistic approach to my personal care. I am generally a healthy pain free person. I appreciate the doctors encourage me to heal, instead of cover up symptoms. They are honest and real. They do not make promises that let me down. Dr. Johnson is kind of a no B S doctor, and I love that. If I don't agree, he will discuss with me. It's been a good experience over the years. Thank you mid-will fm I appreciate all of you.

Dr. Johnson really listens and is quick to give options and will re-evaluate. They can be hard to get ahold of sometimes, but otherwise a great local doctors office! He will also let you see his wife if you are more comfortable for certain female related needs, and I appreciate that.

Tried to establish as a new patient. Brought required paperwork. The first thing they did was look at the medications I had listed, and the next thing they did was to tell me that they refused to prescribe those medications. I am not on pain management, and these prescription medications are neither narcotics nor benzodiazepines. No point in trying to get to know me as a patient. Weirdest experience ever. Asked for my paperwork back and told the receptionist that I wouldn't want a doctor like that that anyway! Felt sorry for the receptionist, as apparently the doctors at this office care only whether a patient is being managed for chronic pain which I'm not and know less about medications than I do.

They tell you when you have your first appointment that they do not give pain medicines of any kind. They are firm believers that it is detrimental to one's health after use of them over a long period of time. This person said there were no opiates or benzodiazepines. However, I have never known Dr. Yao to ever deny any medications that I truly needed. She is a warm and sincere person. She is a good doctor but, she does not know everything in the world about medicines. She is a general doctor. If you have problems she can't handle she refers you to a specialist.

Both doctors are warm caring individuals… They approach medicine from a holistic standpoint, are knowledgeable and thorough in their evaluations of their patients I highly recommend both these doctors to anyone who is looking for a holistic physician who does not throw pain meds at their patients, but moreover goes to the root cause 1st and evaluates from there.... We need more doctors with their viewpoint of medicine, patient care, and Holistic approach to what ails patients....

Worst experience trying to get a new patient appointment. Rude interaction from receptionist. They don't seem to care that they just lost two patients, and all kinds of recommendations.

I've gone here for about three years and they have taken excellent care of me. I wasn't very healthy and they made sure I got the medical care I needed to get healthy again. Excellent facility!

Dr. Johnson is one of the best doctors out there. We are so incredibly happy with our care.
