Reviews of Legacy Emanuel Medical Center
Gabi Syska
This is a really nice hospital. They plan and invest in the renovation and upkeep of the units and spaces which noticeably have a positive impact on patients and their visitors.
More importantly, a large majority of nurses, allied professionals, support staff, and physicians show a high level of professionalism and a kind attitude to patients and one another- even though working in and around healthcare is not easy.
Rebecca Feder
I just had surgery for the first time ever at this hospital. I was so amazed at how kind and wonderful every single person was in the Day Surgery unit. Nurse Kristin especially helped me feel at ease, and offered me comfort when I was scared. I feel so lucky to have had such great care during a really scary time in my life. Thanks so much for your compassionate care!!

Besides being one of the most immaculate hospitals I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing, their staff were so efficient and their bedside manner was beyond incredible. Now let's talk about Dr. Cassandra Tomczak, orthopedic, she is a brilliant surgeon. I work in the medical field and have been in the medical field since I was age of 19 and never in my life have I ever encountered an incredible kind doctor. Doctor Tomczak treated me like I was her friend/sister, she explained to me in detail the procedure and answered every question I had. I am so grateful that I had this opportunity to meet her and to meet the staff at Emmanuel legacy hospital. May God bless each and everyone of them.

My deepest gratitude to the whole Emergency Department for your timely intervention to my potentially lethal illness on 10/27/22. You were stuck with me and 25 others who needed regular hospital beds while the new emergencies just kept coming. You’ve all been heroes forever. Thank you for treating me with kindness, too.
And to the night staff (10/28/22) and day staff (10/29/22) on the 2nd floor my thanks and gratitude for your physician acuity, support and nursing savvy as I started feeling better. Your good humor and thoughtfulness made me feel human again. Especially and I’ll never forget… Marion, Robert and Dr Chris plus the lovely lady who made sure I didn’t slip in the shower and talked about kids with me.
Many many thanks

Not that I have a lot of hospital stays for comparison purposes, but I felt pretty well taken care of at Legacy Emanuel during my ER stay. There was always a nurse checking in on me (how are they all so nice and patient in that stressful environment?!) and they were super thorough with the tests before I was allowed to go home. Thank you for all you do!
Charmika Schuster
Every time i had a relative who was admitted they have done a really great job from the physicians, to the therapists and reception and cafeteria staff and the cafe food is really good- especially the mango smoothies!

My wife drove me here from coos Bay where I crashed an ATV. I was having trouble walking and breathing. I also have been in pretty bad pain. They treated me for serious injuries first. Making sure to cover anything that could be an issue. They gave me pain relievers and full cat scans. Every single nurse and doctor that saw me were extra nice, professional and had great senses of humor. I felt safe, secure and in great hands. I was looking through the previous reviews and see a lot of people didn't feel the same as I do. I find that hard to believe. As far as my treatment went it's one of the best hospital visits I've had, despite the pain. Thank you!
Rose Garacci
Easy and god communication. Easy process to check in for surgery. Surgery team was incredible! Super attention to detail. New and better items like gowns with heating attachment. Great hospital! Thank you!
Kirk Bennett
Doctors seemed knowledgeable. But they are woefully under staffed. And with anything when you get thousands of patients, Doctors and Nurses some are good and some are bad. Problem is when they are under staffed the bad ones affect the overall performance a lot more. In a 1 week stay we had so many different nurses it was stupid. I don't see why you wouldn't have a dedicated nurse for each patient. Build a relationship. Have some customer service. Nope move them from room to room. Stupid.
Nicole Walker
My son has been hospitalized here due to trauma. The staff here have been very pleasant. From the attendants at the front door to the catering associates that delivers his meal trays. Always greeted with a warm smile. He has received excellent nursing and medical care. Nurses and physicians have been excellent in explaining the plan of care every step of the way. I am so grateful that he was brought to this facility for his treatment.
Tina Loop
My fiance was shot in the chest and leg.The team in the ICU was the best They all worked very hard to save his life and after six weeks he is expected to have a full recovery . Also a big shout out to Kami in the Trachu unit we don't know what we would have done without you . You are a amazing Nurse . Everyone was so good to us Thank you all and God Bless.from the Salcido family

These people are the best save my life from a motorcycle accident I suffered in October of last year spent two months in the hospital I can say nothing but good things that kept me going and give me hope on a daily basis I love you all
zach o'connor
Five day stay to figure out what’s wrong with me. I can tell you the staff at this hospital are so nice and helpful. I am not very needy but if I did they where on it. Thank you so much I appreciate everything you folks do. Specially CNA Maria and RN Maddie. Two of the best. ❤️

I had a severe achillies rupture, the staff was very friendly and helpful getting me the help I needed.
B Skiver
My husband & I have been to this ER multiple times in the last few years. We chose this location because it is the closest hospital to where we live.
The last time I was there was for an infection from a cut on my hand. Upon entering the waiting room, I noticed it was very crowded. Everyone was wearing masks, they were even offering fresh masks to those who wanted them. The staff was very efficient and professional. Even during these chaotic times with covid and how overworked all healthcare workers are, they still go above and beyond in treatment. There was even an issue that required security presence and it was handled swiftly.
I ended up waiting for two hours because my injury wasn't life threatening. It's ok, I expected it. I would hope that those in critical condition would be treated first.
Most of the negative reviews on here come from people who do not understand how an ER is not always first come first serve. They treat those who need it first, that's how an ER generally works.
laura linellen
I'm a Medicare recipient and my arm has been in pain a long time. I headed in not knowing if they would take me or my arm seriously. I couldn't have been more impressed with the kindness and care I received. I did wait a bit, but brought a good book and good attitude. I am appreciative of all the staff working Christmas Eve. This place is awesome and they are so nice. It's going to take awhile to heal, but at least I know I will. When reviewing this Hospital remember if you have to go to the emergency room you were probably already having a bad day, don't take it out on these dedicated professionals. Thanks Legacy Emmanuel especially Avine, Yolanda, Angela, Kendra, and April!

In late February 2021, my wife was diagnosed with Covid 19 and double pneumonia. Our local hospital did all they could do, but finally told me they could do no more and she would not survive. After a few questions, they told me there was a slight possibility that there was one last chance, but not to get my hopes up because he wasn’t sure my wife would even be a candidate. I told him to try. That’s when he contacted Legacy and they contacted me. Within a couple hours, the doctors and staff were flying from Portland to Southern Oregon and placing my wife on Ecmo. They bundled her up and flew her back to their hospital. My wife was then on two life support machines and placed in the ICU of ICU’s... NeuroTrauma ICU.
While there, she had to be in isolation till the symptoms of Covid were gone. I truly applaud the medical staff who bravely suited up and took excellent care of her. After isolation, I was given the chance to come see her. This did wonders for both of us. It was after this first visit that she began to realize her dad and I were healthy and doing well. It’s now her turn to get better.
The medical team took every opportunity to treat her and I as royalty. I came to visit on particular day, and nurse Quinn was in her room with his guitar, playing and singing songs to her. I sat next to her and we had our own mini concert for at least 5 songs! Not only did they care for her physically, but mentally and emotionally as well.
One of my favorite things this hospital does is the case worker contacts family and the does weekly conference calls that includes the nurses, doctors and other staff. Questions are answered and they try to ask questions to get to know the patient as well as possible so they can care for them as a person and not just a body in room number blah blah blah. You’re encouraged to visit, call daily and consistently check in on how your loved one is doing.
A HUGE thank you to every single person employed there. No matter your title of Doctor or house keeper, your presence and work you perform all works together for the safety, health and well-being of all whom you care for.
I was told my wife could be there up to 6 months before transferring to other facilities to help her further her rehabilitation and health. It was nowhere near that timeframe before she was well enough to transfer to Vibra Specialty Hospital, where they continued the great care and sent her home in April 12th.
I’m so impressed with both hospitals and their staff. Thank all of you for giving my wife back to her friends, family and loved ones. May God richly bless you all.
With Gratefulness

I worked here for years and it’s one of the best hospitals in Portland.
Audri Davis
Amazing staff, was in and out in less than an hour and a half despite having to get an ultrasound on my leg and some other testing done. So incredible and seriously the best ER I have ever been to. Everyone is kind and helpful and seems to ACTUALLY care about helping people. Grateful for this experience and cannot wait to have my baby at this hospital.
Yolanda Belgard
Emanuel hospital has always treated me with kindness and quality care . I'm currently In the hospital with covid and viral pneumonia and I have have had the best nurses and Dr . I feel very reassured that I will make it through this thanks to Thier care
.
Joseph Manuszak
Pleasantly surprised by the customer service and individual care offered by the staff. I expected excellence in treatment from a trauma hospital, but never expected each department to be so caring and considerate. Hats off to the Leadership, HR team and the employees for bonding into a community that not only addressed my medical emergency, but actually "cared for me" during my time in need. Great job team Legacy.
Malia
The telephone operators are some of the most miserable “people” I’ve ever spoke to. Everyone must’ve had their Cheerios pîssed in every morning this week. I’m unsure how asking a simple question would invoke so much anger. They’re all just as useful as a white crayon.
Amazing doctors, nurses and support staff !!!! Love them all.
Nicholas Dorsey
We were fortunate enough to be in the hands of the Legacy staff for the birth of out first child. Accommodations were 5 star, every one was willing to help out in any way they could. The entire staff was great, but a few people really stood out (and sorry if I misspell any ones name); Miriam the midwife was there the entire time, she was very uplifting, positive, and motivating, AND she didn't drop the baby so thank you! Iris at Randall's Children's hospital, the fountain of youth nurse, she has been working there for 51 years but doesn't look a day over 60, she was with us for limited time but the compassion she had for children shined through her professionalism and knowledge. Maudie, another nurse at Randall's, was with us for most of our recovery time. I only knew her for 2 days but would trust her with my first born. I would also like to give a shout out to the anesthesiologist (I believe her name was Margaret) who provided my sweet mamas with her pain relief during labor, and our overnight nurse at Randall's Children's hospital who crept in and out of our room in the middle of the night as quiet as a ninja. Thank you!! Last minute addition, shout out to Betsy the nurse, she was there when we first arrived and helped answer the million questions we had, she also made us feel comfortable and at home in our room.
Charlie Isom
My second experience way better than my first, but i came in with a better attitude and mind set and learned a few things over the years. They still dont underatand addiction and will do nothing to help you if your addicted to keep you there. If they feel like your a addict good luck getting meds for pain or sickness. Great staff other than that. Come to enjoy my stay.
Ann Hiebler
I had brain surgery and spent 4 days in the ICU. I cannot say enough good things about the care I received. I found the nurses to be kind and caring. My impression was that they were excited about providing intensive care. They were attentive and responsive to me and my needs. When I left my comment was that I had been spoiled for any future nursing care. My expectations now are very high.
Debora Chandler
I had thyroid surgery at Legacy Emanuel Hospital in May 2017. The nurses who took care of me after surgery were kind and knowledgeable, but whoever inserted my urinary catheter prior to surgery should have washed his or her hands. I developed a severe bladder infection within a few days--painful, debilitating, and disruptive of my healing. That could have been prevented easily by following documented procedures. Preregistration people gave me false information that led me into a multi-hour phoning session to find out whether I could choose an anesthesiologist who was in-network for my insurance. Poor training there--again avoidable. The food service people were lovely, the food itself deplorable, inedible. I will avoid this hospital in the future if possible.

My father recently had a stroke and was taken to Legacy Emanuel. He had excellent care in the emergency room and in the ICU, where he spent a week. I can't speak highly enough of his medical team while he was in the ICU. They answered my questions in more detail than I expected, took excellent care of my father, and actually cared about him and didn't treat him as if he was just another patient. His doctors and nurses team were phenomenal. They made me feel comfortable while I was there and made me feel comfortable enough for me to leave the hospital to rest at home and know my father was being taken care of. He was nonverbal after his stroke, so that was one of my biggest concerns, but his medical team made me feel at ease. One of his nurses even informed my family that we could ask to have a meeting with his entire medical team, therapist, and a social worker so we could plan the next steps of his recovery. This helped take a lot of the unknown weight off our shoulders. I thank them so much for being such a wonderful group of medical professionals.
When he was moved out of the ICU, he was transferred to Unit 55..or maybe it was 51, anyway, I was underwhelmed by the care of his nurses. He was still nonverbal at this point and whenever he hit his "help" button to get a nurse to come, someone would come over the intercom in his room and asked if he was ok. He couldn't talk and if we weren't there to say something, he didn't get help right away. We had talked to multiple people about it and they said they put a note up for to inform the nursing station about it. We tested it once in the middle of the day during the week, he needed something, pushed the button, someone came over the intercom, we didn't say anything to see if they would come, and no one came for 10 minutes. I ended up having to hunt someone down. I understand nurses are busy, but he's a patient and its their job to take care of him and his needs. Pretty disappointing. We ended up "firing" one of the nurses from his care team, she was awful. The social workers in this unit were amazing! They gave us an enormous amount of information, met with us as needed, and helped work with our wishes for our fathers discharge plans.
Overall, a wonderful relief to have an excellent care team, minus that one nurse, while my father was at Emanuel.

This is THE BEST care I have ever recieved! I was hit by a work van on my bicycle and have been here for a few days in the hospital. The staff have been extremely polite, concerning to my injuries and so much caring!! I just can't express how amazing I have been treated!! I am very happy with every step they have taken to make sure I am not in pain. I think people with negative reviews just like to complain or they are just unpleasant people where ever they go! I am happy there is this hospital so close!
A huge THANKYOU to ALL the staff who took care of me while I was here! You should all be recognized for your hard work and I have never felt more comfortable in a hospital until now!!
William Murphy
Very nice ER. Had an issue while traveling to Portland. One of the trainee nurses used my arm as a pincushion trying to establish an IV, but I have always been a difficult stick. The ER nurse brought in the ultrasound vein scanner and got it on the first try. They ER staff diagnosed the problem, it should resolve on its own. Not where or how I wanted to spend an afternoon. They were professional, kind, caring and competent.
Kristy Shin
For about a week I had been suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, and little to no sleep due to the anxiety. I tried to handle it on my own, but I finally got to a point where I needed help. I went to the ER at around midnight and was admitted right away and treated within the hour. I was worried about how I might be treated since I was going in with a mental health crisis, but the team at Legacy from the administrators to the nurses, doctors, and counselor treated me with compassion and respect. They gave me a list of resources that I could utilize for further help and also signed me up for temporary insurance. I'm so grateful they were there to help me.

I went to a Legacy Urgent Care clinic at about 9pm after falling 15' out of a tree. I could walk with support but with discomfort and had pain in my midback. They got me a wheelchair and saw me in xray and ct scan. It took until 11:00pm for them to decide I had fractured my back and needed to be admitted to the hospital. At 11:30pm, I sent my friend home to get some rest. It took until 1:30am for the ambulance to arrive to drive me across the street to Legacy Emanuel. Once I got to the hospital, about 6-7 medical professionals descended on me and began testing things, attaching monitors, asking me questions. I couldn't track it all, but they were kind and patient as I did my best to answer everyone. The er doctor took my hand, leaned in between the other busy folks in scrubs and looked me gently in the eye. I started crying and couldn't answer questions for a few minutes. Just to be seen with compassion in that moment was so powerful. By 2am, they had shown me the ct scan and the fracture in my vertebrae, admitted me to my own room in the Tracu (trauma acute care unit), and the night nurse helped get me settled in. All the nursing and CNA staff I encountered in my 3 days there were great. I prefer not to take pharmaceutical medicine and my pain level wasn't that bad, so the nurse ordered me a water heating pad machine which I used almost constantly during my stay--so helpful! The day nurse Tim talked me into using Tylenol so I could participate more fully with the PT and OT people. I admit it did help. They had a full gluten free menu and I thoroughly enjoyed the food. Room service, prepared on demand! I was impressed. The doctors were a little gruff and there were a lot of them, and the facial surgeons were hard to get a hold of, but overall I was very pleased with my care at Legacy Emanuel. I asked if I could use a loaner wheelchair so my friends could take me to the garden outside, but the nurses didn't know where their wheel chair was. Said someone had walked off with it and hadn't brought it back. Said it happens all the time. How does a hospital lose track of its equipment and not follow up with that? Other than that, it was a 5 star stay.

In January of 2015 I was diagnosed with Stage III Breast Cancer. Through ALL of my tests, treatments, surgeries and procedures I have received EXCELLENT care from every individual I have encountered. I want to thank the entire Legacy Medical Center campuses and all of their Doctors, Nurses and front & back office staff for treating me with care and compassion and for taking such amazing care of myself and your other patients!! I also want to include this huge thank you to the Phil Knight Cancer Institute on the Legacy Good Samaritan campus. You are amazing and have made my treatment and cancer journey so much easier. Thank you to everyone involved for taking such wonderful care of me!!
George Beem
They took great care of my brother when he had open heart surgery. It seems to me everybody has good bed side manor from the surgeons to the nurses who were there when ever we had questions. The doctors took time and explained things in a way we could understand. I would give the hospital 10 out of 10. I would like to thank all of them for there help with my brother Mitch. Thank you so much for everything. Your the Best!
Lacy Phillips
The emergency room was amazing i saw Aloysius N Fobi,MD he listened to me and my condition and instead of following typical procedures actually heard me , most hospitals would have. Not done that this was my 3rd in 2 months , he actually did what I asked and came back and said you were right after following up with some tests, and he helped me get better! great bedside manner and he prescribed the right medicine to get me better. . this was a amazing doctor we need more like him .. Sincerely thankyou . lacy. m .
Dijana Djuric
OMG i cannot thank the Nurses and Dr's in ICU enough!! my dad was air lifted there from a hospital out of Washington given a 20% chance of living, the nurses and dr's there did EVERYTHING they could for my dad and were truley amazing my family literally called everyday to see how he was doing if he was awake yet etc. and they were never less than amazing at keeping us up to date! my dad is FINALLY coming home tomorrow to start physical therapy after being in the hospital for 3 months and its due to the incredible staff at Emmanuel!!
Keshia Elrod
The ONLY hospital I trust for my self and my kids. The doctors have been nothing short of amazing. Labor an delivery was wonderful. The care I’ve gotten weather it be a doctors appointment, labor, or ER have always been above and beyond. I will not go anywhere else
Cristie P
Randall Children's ED was great, got us in within 5 minutes of checking in. Doc saw us before the nurse even finished our initial check-in in the room.
Super happy yet again with the staff at Randall.
Brooke Kelley
We would like to thank all the emergency room staff, life flight crew, ICU unit, and the rest of those who cared for my Dad who recently had a weeks stay with you. You are all working under extreme circumstances dealing with COVID-19, putting you lives on the line to serve others. We thank you and your families for the sacrafices you are making. Comments from my parents showed that you were all very friendly, helpful and professional. Thank you very much. Keep up the good work!
Justine Faith
Had an amazing life changing experience. The ECMO program saved my life and I have nothing but thank you to all staff and doctors who helped me along my crazy journey. I Thank God for you all daily.
Sandy Todd
I had day surgery today, 3/10/2015. I was an out of town patient and had no knowledge of this hospital and was very nervous. From the first telephone call for pre-registration, and every subsequent interaction, my confidence grew. The staff is absolutely first rate, friendly and competent. The facility is clean, modern and welcoming. The day surgery is near the children's hospital and the little park for kids is such a thoughtful touch. They are also the only trauma center in the region. Very fortunate to have this exceptional facility in Oregon.
Dana Gritz
The ER Trauma unit saved my life, and I don't have enough words of gratitude for that.
Eloisa Townsend
As I recall from my time there in 2010, the nurses in the maternity ward were top-notch! During my first pregnancy and at my unplanned C-section, I was exhausted, anxious and scared. Thankfully, I was in the care of a talented all female team of nurses and doctors who were pros and very empathic to my situation. I also liked the concierge-style dining. Eat when you want to eat! The menu wasn't bad either. Plus I LOVE that we could make payment arrangements for our hospital bill with no interest. THANK YOU LEGACY EMANUEL!
Cheerio
Great experience with the nurses, anesthesiologist and surgeon team. IV was painless, surgery gown was heated, I was able to be seen earlier than scheduled, and released with all my questions answered. Recommend this facility for outpatient surgery.
Daniel Klein
"Loved it" is not the wording I'd expect to use for a hospital, but...
My sister had brain cancer and was practically indigent, with no health insurance. I was astounded by the high degree of professionalism and care that she received, irrespective of her financial situation. Everyone, and I mean everyone, from floor nurses to ICU nurses to doctors to counselors to kitchen staff to help desk were wonderful, caring, and giving people. She got the best care possible.
Erik Price
I wasn't a customer of this place, but my dad was. He was brought here via ambulance due to a medical emergency. He was a guest in the hospital for 10-days. They saved his life. All the doctors and nurses were fantastic. The place is very clean. They did an excellent job taking care of him and communicating updates to us. It is a very big hospital and it can be difficult to navigate.
Tara Clark
Had our child at Emanuel and despite a rocky delivery, Dr. Phillipa Ribbink delivered him and the staff helped resuscitate him. He is healthy, happy and smart! She said it was the most difficult delivery she has done, even in her volunteer work delivering babies in Africa. The postpartum rooms at Randall are also amazing. And the nurses throughout were stellar.
Lexi Catton
The nurses in the ER are incredible, especially the night crew. Very sweet and competent and go out of their way to make you feel at home.
christopher keller
Let's face it, noone really likes having to go to a hospital unless you work there. I look at it like any other vacation destination when an inpatient. Comfortable, clean, quiet, good food, friendly staff. No excursions or tours, no unexpected out of pocket expenses. They'll even get you a free ride home if you don't have one.
Freedom Matters
Abdominal pain brought me to the ED on 4/7/19. My patient care was exceptional from the time I was wheeled in until I left on 4/11/19. Doubled-over with excruciating pain, Dr. Megan Lundeberg and Abigail Ritter PA, quickly got me on medication to help manage that and I was diagnosed with a small bowel obstruction. After NG tube did not work, Dr L performed a successful surgery that will leave minimal scarring. My RN's: Tomo, Hodan, Linda, Tiffany CNA; Amsal, and Student Nurse Gabi went ABOVE AND BEYOND! Dr. Engel and Heather PA did follow up and took the time to explain the procedure and answer my questions. I never felt as if they were in a hurry and so appreciated their kindness. All of these ladies were extremely professional and clearly love their chosen professions. Each had unique qualities but they all shared a wonderful sense of humor, and heartfelt compassion. I felt truly blessed to be in Unit 45! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Emanuel.
Ellie Rose
i am here every 4 weeks and i do not even dread it! the nurses on the 3rd floor are so kind and considerate. they make sure i am comfortable, understand what is going on, and kept fed. i love chatting with them and they do a great job
Tia Trevino
Have had great experience with my daughter and treatment, however, brought her in for an appointment and went to the cafe and watched at least 40 people walk through sit down and eat and in an hour and a half not one person came out to wipe tables down. I watched people continue to sit down at dirty tables repeatedly. This is a hospital where doctor work and touch sick people all day long and then all feed in this common area that is very very unsanitary.
Adrianne Peterson
The physicians and nursing staff were outstanding. The food, however, needs a great deal of attention. Patients need decent food to build their strength and healing powers. If the food is inedible it defeats the purpose. Maybe Emanuel should partner with one of the culinary institutes.
Brian Neves
The staff was top notch .Can't say enough good things about them .The billing dept is horrible this hospital was out of my network I had to file a appeal with my insurance company I live Calif .had Heart Attack up in Washington state so had worked out a deal to refinance my home to pay what was owed but they turned me in to collections so killed my credit score so we couldn't get the loan screwed me but also screwed them and I called them once a month to keep them up to date but still sent us to collection. Now will have this on my record for 7 years and I will not pay them a dime let them sue me they could of had there money .

I want to preface this by saying, overall, I had an incredibly positive experience at Legacy Emanuel, and would give a 5 star rating, EXCEPT for my experience in the ER. I was brought in by ambulance with a serious tib/fib fracture on a weekday evening, which may have bumped my priority up to the nurses and staff of the ER. Two of the young men who worked on me definitely lacked what most people expect in bedside manner from medical professionalscracking jokes about having to cut my leggings and underwear off, being irritated by having to communicate my status via phone to my partner, not terribly interested in me as a patient but pretty interested in my experiences as an EMT and climber (young woman who does cool "boy" stuff counts for a lot I guess). A lot of hard work and energy goes into becoming an ER nurse, so I have to believe these men WERE passionate about helping people, but I felt like their priorities were a little skewed. They seemed more interested in when they could be drinking beer and watching "the game" than the quality of care they were giving their patientsjust young, immature men who need some legitimate training in how to speak with and psychologically care for those in need of their help.
In contrast, my experience with the 4th floor nurses in the hospital was phenomenal. Everyone treated me with incredible care, patience, and kindness. I have never experienced anything like it in a hospital. I actually felt valued as a patient, AND a person. My PAs were clear, communicative, direct, and professional. Do I wish the surgeon had taken the time to come visit me? Of course I do. But that is not the medical system we have, unless you pay a high premium for it. Luckily, PAs are often just as skilled as their superiors, and I trust my life and health to them as readily as any MD.
Does Legacy Emanuel have personnel issues to work through, especially in light of the MANY comments on people's experience in the ER? Absolutely. Is it still a quality medical center, with great professionals on its staff? Absolutely.
I hope they take to heart the experiences of people who have come through their hospital, and that everyone gets a chance to see the side of their staff that I did.
Mitchell Clem
Day Surgery At Emmanuel.
My Nurses Katie, Rachel, Sara, Doug & Stephen were all very friendly professional & caring.
Dr Chui anesthesiologist made my surgery seem like a quick painless nap. Dr Gellman Surgeon quick steady hands with careful scalpel & professional handling of the tools of his trade.
All left me knowledgeable, comfortable & reassured that I will heal quickly & comfortable.

My daughter spent 47 days in this hospital and almost died. She has had reoccurring medical issues which have resulted in numerous hospitalizations between Portland and SW Washington. Other than the food, this hospital staff provided the best care and loving, non judgemental staff imaginable compared to the other 4 hospitalizations at different facilities I am afraid to name due to the possible block of this review.

Amazing staff from check in to check out at the emergency room. They treated us so kind, cracked jokes and took care of us while putting our minds at ease. Went above and beyond to ensure it'd be ready for me to follow up as well as letting my girlfriend know what to worry about and what to be okay with as i recovered.

My husband was brought to Legacy Emanuel after a car accident. I cannot believe the incredible care, compassion and support we received from all staff, especially the nurses in the TRACU. We are thankful, and our lives are enriched by just knowing them. Our favorite was Chris, who went out of his way to explain and educate without judgement. Thank you

If your Health or Life is on the line then you MUST MUST MUST *** get treatment at Legacy Emanuel ***
This is hands down the best level-one trauma center in the entire world !!!!
Emanuel has a great system; world-class equipment; the most skilled practitioners; and does an amazing job on their patients.
I know this first hand: They saved my life using their heads, as well as innovative techniques found nearly nowhere else.
Highest regards to all the fine people at Legacy Emanuel Medical Center,

Very sad developments for us led to Trauma Care and Legacy Emanuel did everything possible to handle extraordinary treatment of our relative and communication with us. I was very impressed with every aspect of what we experienced. It's a HUGE place so we didn't see it all. We felt we were in very good hands.
Leanne Goode
Everyone at Legacy Emanuel has been great throughout my many visits. They are kind and caring and everyone throughout the hospital is willing to help any time you ask. They're great!

I loved the care this hospital gave my fiance. Very professional and quick. My fiance had what she thought was bad heartburn. It turns out that she was having a heart attack. Very thankful for this hospital and it's staff for everything they did.

Over medicated my wife to death because she had cancer. Right to die state or the right to kill you state.

Best hospital in town. I had open heart surgery here and I had my baby here. I'm at the hospital monthly for blood draws and have nothing negative to say. Staff are outstanding. Facilities are great.
Some of these reviews are a joke!

I can't say enough good things about this place. My son took a life flight here at the age and of 5 because of a reckless 73yr old drunk driver. I litterly (using the true definition of) saw through my sons fractured skull to his brain. Life flight scooped him up, flew him here, Legacy Emanuel patched him up, and he is alive to day but ONLY for the amazing amazing AMAZING staff. Thank you forever Legacy Emanuel and to every single Dr., nurse, technician, volunteer, ect.....
I will never forget your kindness.

I had a Subarachnoid hemorrhage of the brain. I could have died from it. Then my heart attacked me and I had acute respiratory failure. I could have died. Dr Siker, Dr Chen and the excellent trauma staff saved my life. I am recovering at home, without the need for any PT. My brain is still recovering, but I am still ME! Each day that goes by I feel better and better. I am able to walk and talk and laugh and cry and that's fantastic. I truly had the best care from the best team(s).

If you want to get your bunions removed and act like a 6 year old child and be pampered like one, this hospital is not for you. If you are in a serious traumatic accident, your life is on the line then you MUST come here. This is hands down the best level-one trauma center in town. OHSU is great, but Emanuel has a great system set up and does an amazing job helping trauma patients
Ian Vidovic
My wife had both our boys at Legacy. We had a great experience. We have been multiple times to the urgent care and taken care of very quickly.

Customer service was outstanding!
I was apparently in the wrong building and the gentlemen that worked there didnt just give me some directions on where to go, he helped me find where i needed to be and i made it to my appointment on time. And i sure as hell wouldnt have found it on my own. He also pointed out landmarks to help me find my way back to my car when i was finished with my appointment.
Andrew Paeth
Words can’t describe how grateful I am to Dr. Keuther and the staff for preserving my mobility and giving me the best chance I have to walk normally again.
Special thanks to Tacia, both Jordans, Linda, Tara, Betsy, Michaela, Cassie, Billy and the rest of the crew for all the professional care and time spent providing an unparalleled level of service.
Thanks to all of you!
David Owings
Not only is this hospital the best I head viral bronchitis in the Portland Providence medical center discharge me 2 times after I came in with all the signs of viral bronchitis and they discharged me but when I went to Emmanuel they kept me until I was all better.
The only reason why I gave Emmanuel 5 stars is because they don't have room for 108 stars
Cindy Mayes
I was suprised that I was in and out of the emergency room so quickly. From walk in to walk out, was less than an hour and a half. Unbelievable. I know this is NOT the norm.
Other than that, I was very pleased with the care I received, and the solution being found quickly. (Now to see what the bill will be..)
Jeffrey Rowe
The staff here at every level is fantastic!My wife and I are especially impressed with Robbie in the pre op department.He has excellent people skills and is very caring.!
We are recommending this facility to everyone.
Nick Hansen
I went in for some very scary pain around my heart and lungs. The staff were great and very nice. I could barely talk, move or breathe with out feeling emminse pain. Turns out it wasn't as badas it felt but glad they were there to help get me through it. Thank you!
Tabby T2bLight
We take our son here on a weekly basis. We never had any issues. His speech therapist is amazing along with the rest of the staff.
Edin Matinjanin
Very fast services and we went there around 2 am in the morning and they had us in and out I was very satisfied with all the staff and everyone was really nice

The doctors and nurses are very friendly, as expected. The only reason I’m giving 3 stars is because the staff in the front are very shady. I’m not sure if I’ve been going on bad days but they always look like they don’t want to be there or help answer questions.
Dianne Williams
This place is amazing. I had my first born here and now my boyfriend us having surgery here. I love this place. Everyone is also amazing. I recommend this place to everyone.
Chenara Johnson
I went to the emergency room on Halloween 2017 in excruciating pain. The ED was relatively empty, so I was seen in a timely manner. I expressed my concern about being given narcotics the last time I experienced a similar pain, and the ED doc was understanding. Eventually, I had to be escalated to a powerful opioid and required an emergent major surgery. Throughout my time in the ED and days on the post-surgical floor, the nurses/residents/staff/surgeon were attentive, kind and clearly interested in my recovery. Thank God for my astute ED doctor, radiologist and surgeons. I highly recommend Legacy.
La nay Walker
They saved my life when I caught the Swine Flu it was pretty intense but at the latter part of my stay I called a nurse for a bedpan she told me that was not her job and had an accident that someone else had to clean up it was embarrassing and unnecessary but they did save my life
