She diagnosed me as a specialist which I wanted my PCP was wrong though he did say that I should see a specialist she cleared up misinformation and used her expertise which was very comforting to me I was so afraid until I saw her
Really impressed with Dr. Thomas, her MA and office staff. Dr. Thomas was thorough, gave good explanations, suggestions and outlined a path forward.
Everyone in this office are great and very attentive to patient needs.
The appt. Was set for me. It came up on my chart so I went. It worked out great but I had nothing to do with setting the appt.
Dr Thomas is the best!
The Best. Really knows her field. Gives direct advice. She's perfect.
Dr. Thomas and team have made my shoulder surgery experience very good. I feel like I received excellent care and have been very pleased with everything/one.
Friendly, emphatic eficiente and knows what he's talking about .
Hands down best medical group of workers I've been to in a looooong time!
I apparently misunderstood that I was seeing a shoulder specialist. Dr. Thomas was wonderful as I received cortisone shots in each shoulder. I could not believe the improvement and pain reduction that I have experienced. Thank you Dr. Thomas and your excellent P/A.
Great staff
All my Experiences have been good
Not doctors fault for longer than 15 minute wait there was a fire drill that morning. I was highly impressed with Dr. Thomas the moment I met her extremely knowledgeable very kind. Got right to the point set me up with physical therapy and I just had a good feeling about that visit.
All good after shoulder surgery & post op appts! Raquel goes above & beyond to help!
Raquel is remarkable empathetic, explains things really clearly, and I have total confidence in her expertise.
My appointment with my provider had accidentally not been entered but this provider was able to squeeze me into her schedule.
Experienced, intelligent, interested, caring and kind doctor! Friendly, efficient and helpful staff
I was surprised to learn shoulder arthroscopy has an expiration date.
Dr. Thomas is knowledgeable
I have been to Legacy Orthopedics for a few years for several issues. They are.not only nice and very helpful but the ultimate in orthopedics for professionalism and treating me with respect and interest. This includes all medical staff and front desk staff as well.
Rachel did a great job of taking care of my condition. She is very knowledgeable and really puts me at ease. She is awesome!
Raquel is very knowledgeable and was encouraging in the outcome of my surgery. She took time to answer my questions and she and Nikki were reassuring in addressing my concerns about recovery.
It was good
This Doctor was honestly the most dismissive, "one case fits all" practitioner I have ever encountered in my entire life. He looked at me for just a few seconds, didn't even try the sames range of motion than the other doctors I've seen for this injury.He didn't even ask questions about myself, my lifestyle or absolutely anything remotely related to my health. He looked at me and said "you need surgery" right away. He didn't suggest nor even mentioned absolutely any other methods or procedures. I talked to 2 other orthopedic doctors after my appointment with this doctor and they mentioned/offered me alternative treatments right away.I think that if a medical professional is going to charge as much as this doctor does, their should be trained in all cutting edge medical technologies and new methods of healing vs having such an archaic and limited approach to medicine. It honestly didn't even seem like this doctor care about his patients nor had any genuine interest in the patient's health (at least in my case).This doctor was a waste of my time and money and I'm extremely dissatisfied with his practices
She was very professional and very
Very caring, fun environment. Thorough and professional care. Staff is always on point. All in all a great team and experience!
The whole team at this location has been very supportive throughout my journey.
I must commend Raquel Noonan for her professional, yet personal care provided. She always lessens to obtain Information on my current condition (spending whatever time needed obtaining this information), being very professional, yet presenting a warm & friendly relationship. She is an excellent representative for this healthcare group.
Everyone was fabulous
If this is regarding my knee then the dr is awesome if it's about urgent care then the dr was awesome also. I refuse to go to good sam hospital emergency room because of the treatment there. They were horrible.
Initially I was told mid July for an appointment a week laterThen told mid JuneFinally after much phone tag w Philip, as well as schedulers, The person who scheduled and truly listened and heard me describe age discrimination by GotoOrtho PA Andrew was Holly.She was nothing short of a God send and an answer to prayer. Please thank her for me.Dr Thomas' staff was polite and professional, even humored me w my lame Dad jokes.Dr Thomas' office was quick to get Medicare to authorize an MRI, as well as follow up w PT.Dr Thomas is very professional and good at breaking down things in layman's terms.The whole industry seems to be booking out quite a ways. The PT, the imaging, I feel very thankful the doc got me in. Is this related to a shortage of workers?
As usual, an excellent visit!
I went in to Dr .Bederka after my primary care recommended to look at my knee. He was very nice and explained things and his staff was great as well!
Dr. Thomas was phenomenal. I felt heard and respected.
Raquel was very patient with the numerous questions we (and especially my husband) had during the visit. I really appreciated her patience and reassuring answers and manner.
I can recommend this provider, Dr Thomas, for anyone with shoulder problems. Did not opt for surgery first and had a solid plan for determining what to do and communicated that plan.
So friendly, so responsive, and informative. Great care.
excellent communication-spent time as needed- worked out a plan
Visits were very good with staff and doctor and felt respected and well taken care of.
Dr Thomas was FABULOUS
Receptionist offered me water when I couldn't find any. Much appreciated! Doc was compassionate & super informative. And the assistant who gave me an injection was helpful and gentle. Very positive experience.
This office is fantastic
This office is so amazing. Dr. Thomas and her PA are so very amazing and would never go anywhere else!!! Appreciate them all so much!
Raquel is attentive, made me feel heard, and responsive to follow-up questions. I couldn't be happier
All staff and all care has been outstanding. I am extremely satisfied. Thank you!
Extremely friendly, competent, and efficient practice!
They went out of there way to get me in a see me
Waited over an over. Imaging not reviewed prior to visit.Waited 6 weeks to find out referred to wrong provider, if pre-visit planning or referral review was part of the process, both my time, and the providers would have been respected, in addition a patient who needed care could of been seen.
Billing afterwards. I was charged for an office visit when I was told I would not be. I cannot get through to the Billing Dept. After a lengthly hold time, I am disconnected. I left the Office Manager a voicemail and she has not returned my call. I paid up front for an experimental procedure and was not supposed to have an additional balance. I cannot seem to get this resovoled and I'm sure this survey will do nothing about it. It is more concerned about the appointment vs the billing headachs afterwards.
All members of the office staff (Holly, Alan, Raquel, etc.) were courteous, efficient and considerate. Dr. Thomas was kind, interested, interactive, and thoroughly knowledgeable. Her "bedside manner" was fabulous! Every aspect of the experience with and in her office for this appointment was virtually perfect.
Raquel Noonan was very professional and very helpful.
Very friendly and professional, and knowledgeable
DR. THOMAS IS AWESOME. HER STAFF WERE PROFESSIONAL AND COURTEOUS. GOT IN AND GOT OUT IN VER ACCEPTABLE TIMES. IF MY RIGHT SHOULDER GOES BAD I WOULD COME BACK IN A MNUTE FOR THEM TO HELP AND GUIDE ME THROUGH ANY PROCEDURE NEEDED.
I was very happy with the care I received from Dr. Thomas and the orthopedic clinic personnel.
I have already and they are seeing this provider as well
Happy that I was released from any further treatment for my surgery from last September.
DR. NOONAN is great. The building is old, the office is old. The staff are young and a bit to chatty with each other when patients there.
The staff and doctor are very polite. I like my doctor very much he is direct and to the point. A good experience.
Been engaged in addressing this problem since October (it's now March). Barriers include PCP retiring and Legacy failing to have a successor PCP, and months-long waits for orthopedic appointments.
She was amazing!
Doc Noonan is literally the best doctor I have ever had. She is friendly, funny easy to talk as well as a host of other awesome things about her. All of that and she works magic too.
All are so.nice and caring.
Lot of question was irrelevant. I was there for Arthritis shot on my knee.
Dr Estes was thorough, responsive and professional. Appreciate the visit and nurse follow up when I called to leave Sports Medicine appointment information.
It was a very GOOD VISIT w/ Dr. KRISTIN THOMAS although the 1st injection to my left arm was very very PAINFUL n the right arm seems go be PAINFUL, too... It doesn't matter as long my visit in ur clinic, HELPED ME A LOT! Thanks for Dr. THOMAS n her helper too.

Raquel is EXCEPTIONAL
It was very pleasant and I have been very well taken care off. Great staff
I've had all good experiences. Everyone is very kind and professional
Very positive visit
I love this Team!
Doctor is very skilled and knows his stuff!Problem: pain management. Steroid injection could not be done, I can't take NSAIDS, already using Tylenol and conservative management. No other options available.
Very professional--good
I have had the good fortune of meeting with Dr. Thomas and both of her PAs. They were all very caring and kind to me and really would like to help me with the problems I brought to the appointment.
All good here. This is a wonderfull clinic.
The provider took time to listen to the whole story of my injury. She was extremely helpful as far as explaining my condition and the process that will unfold moving forward. She was kind, compassionate, respectful, and treated me like a while complicated person and not just a series of symptoms. I would recommend her without hesitation - this was honestly one of the best interactions I've ever had with a medical provider.
Respectful, showed concern, explained very well, kind and caring
Had to wait a long time but was warned that they were behind schedule. Staff was very helpful.
Every staff person I have encountered have been very friendly, respectful, helpful and efficient. This office functions very efficiently. Dr Thomas was very personable and really listened to me. It was obvious that she had reviewed my chart and the documentation and test results done so far. She clearly explained her assessment of my problem, her suggested plan of action and plan for follow up. I left feeling very confident in her expertise and that she truly cared.
I'm pleased
VeryThey are excellent providers I really like them
All good
I was late due to a family emergency but they took me anyway. Discussed my recovery from surgery and arranged for more physical therapy.
I was informed of a condition I did not know I had. This was the first time I had shoulder x-rays done. I was given a cortisone shot the same day. I am experiencing less pain in My right shoulder now! I credit Provider Raquel Noonan- and My former GP, Dr. Brandon Young!
Her notes on patient portal did not exactly match what was discussed during the visit. Her opinion was leaning towards one of the options and she did not discuss one of the other options that she wrote in her notes that she had discussed.
All went well
Raquel Noonan was attentive and understanding. She couldn't have been better!
They were very friendly, and explained the issues in detail
She always has a smile on her face! She listens intently, then answers your questions.
Excellent providers
The provider did not read my history before seeing me. It took a great deal of work to get him all my medical records he didn't read them before the gist and then argued with me about my pain and where it should or shouldn't be. I am going to see a different orthopedic surgeon at OHSU. He also piled my left so far apart to see the severe of my dislocation that I was having a hard time breathing through my tears and pain. He refused me pain medication. On my way out. I puked in the street. Twice. When I called the nurse to explain and ask for help she continued to argue with me and was incredibly rude. She was hurtful and mean. No empathy. Worst experience ever.
Raquel is always great. Explains everything, including medical options. Always have found her, the doctor, and office staff polite and very helpful.
