Dr. Mirarchi is not only the best Orthopedic Surgeon but also the best Doctor all around that I have met. Very fortunate he was on duty the day of the car accident.

Fantastic bariatric program and Dr. Stroud is amazing. Surgical staff was prompt, on point and bedside manner was amazing. I had a great experience having my VSG, and the follow up has been great. Encouraging and supportive staff. You definitely need to do your homework and stay on top of scheduling. I would completely recommend their program if you're considering WLS.

Such a great gym! Membership is pretty spendy, but there is a membership discount (on the first 3 months) for OHSU patients that receive a provider referral for the Medical Exercise Program. They also offer "ask a trainer" times where there is a fitness trainer available (at no extra charge) to answer questions. They also have a great warm water therapy pool which works great for me with a knee injury. I'm very impressed!

I had to go to the Orthopedic. Everyone was professional and friendly. Parking was not as difficult as I had imagined. I did have a bit of a wait to see the doctor but all and all it was a positive experience.

Been a member for over a year. I don’t think a gym can get too much better than this, especially for my needs. It is definitely the upper crust of the fine Gym universe, there lies the rub, it IS expensive. But in this case you do get what you pay for: free underground parking with an elevator that takes you three floors up directly into the gym lobby, clean new plentiful exercise equipment in a huge room with a two-story high wall of solid windows with awesome cityscape and tram views, fantastic large pools - lap, hot hottub, really warm Therpy pool- all in another huge high ceiling room with three tall walls of solid windows, spacious clean carpeted dressing rooms and good showers, attentive friendly staffs, and other bells and whistles. I find it so easy to get there and so enjoyable to use that I go at least four days a week, often six. My favorite gym is still Lorprinzi’s because of the iconic equipment that still works great, and because of its wonderful vibrant heart, no other bells or whistles. But due to health issues I need warm pools and more space in between the equipment. Also at 71, it’s nice to be pampered.

Today, I attempted to sign up for a corporate membership but was denied. The policy states that the minimum corporate membership time is 6 months. I will only be living in Portland for 3 more months, so was given the option to pay the initiation fee and standard rate. First, the corporate rate is still $90 a month, and I was eligible for the rate because I am a student at a local university. I was willing to give OHSU $270 to use their facilities. But, they asked for about $180 upfront and $108/month instead. A part of OHSU’s mission is to, “Lead and advocate for programs that improve health for all Oregonians, and extend OHSU's education, research and healthcare missions through community service, partnerships and outreach.” In my opinion, OHSU failed to live up to their mission statement today. I am an Oregonian and attend a university that is partnered with OHSU and an OHP recipient looking to improve his health through exercise. But, I was shown today that I will only be supported by OHSU if I have $500 to exercise for 3 months. I understand that policies are put in place to protect an organization, but I do not understand why utilizing a public facility would be created to be so inaccessible to community members. Fortunately, I can exercise and swim at the Matt Dishman Community Center for $132 for 3 months, or about $350 less than at OHSU. Of course, the OHSU facility offers a bit more in terms of exercise equipment than Matt Dishman, but from my trial experience there it is not any more extensive equipment than what is offered at other local/big box gyms. It therefore does not seem worthwhile to pay $90-$100+/month unless you like to swim multiple times a week and live right near the facility. Of course, it is great if you have gym access as an OHSU student or staff member, but does not appear to be the best option if you are not directly affiliated with the university.
