Sports Medicine in Portland

“They were able to get me in quickly. The doctor explained everything and was very professional.“

“I met Katie shortly before I had knee surgery to repair tears on my meniscus. It had been about 6 months of regular pain, forcing me to refrain from running, working out, or even so much as doing a full body squat without pain and/or an unsettling click. Katie worked with me to identify the problems I was having and introduced me to a series of progressively more dynamic exercises to build up my mobility and strength to a level beyond where I was before my injury.Besides her mastery of physical therapy (and the fact that Katie is just an awesome person), these three things stood out to me the most:1: Katie uses a collaborative, educational approach to her work with her clients, and she is a fantastic instructor and coach. Moving my body in new ways was sometimes difficult, but her ability to articulate the exercises using auditory and visual cues was super helpful. Seeing something and hearing it in terms I understood made the process more enjoyable, and especially let me see why certain movements hurt, and how to improve upon them. Real-time cues while doing exercises also helped to hone in on the pieces I might be missing, and especially the pieces I was doing well. Both helped tremendously.2: Katie is extremely patient. Again, moving my body in new ways was sometimes difficult, which often left me spinning my wheels as I tried to get the movements right. Not once did she even remotely seem frustrated or impatient as I struggled. Instead, she showed enthusiasm for even the smallest improvements, and celebrated all of my little wins. It made learning and getting stronger a pleasant experience that motivated me each step of the way. Katie’s office is a safe place that fosters improvement in surprising ways.3: Katie is an empathic practitioner who understands your pain, and truly wants you to get better and be your best self. Knowing that she was on my side, seeing her celebrate my little wins, all of it. Katie made my pain feel understood from the first day, and inspired me to have confidence in both my progress and my potential once I was back in action.I highly recommend Katie for anyone who is ready to feel good in their body. She’s a treasure.“

“I worked with Laura on a lower back mystery, and she was incredibly thorough and exhaustive. It took some time to unravel the source issue, but unravel she did, and I left with lots of DIY tools to use in the future. The whole operation is excellent and I have nothing but positive things to say about both the staff and facility.“

“I worked with Dr. Ryan Gloeckner for some upper back/neck pain I had been dealing with for weeks that would not get better with rest. He immediately found the issue and came up with a plan for how to relieve my pain including appointments and things to do on my own. He estimated 2-3 weeks until I would be back to my normal activities and in a week things were already feeling better. He also helped me come up with a plan to strengthen my neck & back moving forward as well so I won't have any more issues going forward! Teala was also super friendly and helpful with scheduling and helping me with my insurance questions. Can't recommend them enough!“

“Vera is amazing! I have been receiving acupuncture on and off for the last two years for lower back issues. The treatment has been a life saver. Vera is simply brilliant. Not only is she incredible at what she does, as an acupuncturist and an expert in herbs, but she is a fantastic person who makes it her mission to help you from the moment you meet her.I felt at ease and comfortable from the first treatment on, and quite frankly, I’m not sure what I would do without her! Never in the medical field had I come across such a focused, knowledgeable, patient and personable individual.“

“Hands down best chiropractor I've ever been to in three different states. Professional, friendly, knowledgeable and the receptionist is always super friendly. My husband and I were lucky to find this clinic. We've been going here since 2013 I believe. That's 10 years! I've tried other chiropractor's due to moving locations, but we keep coming back here, because they're the best!“

“Love this place! They helped me recover from a car accident at the beginning of the COVID pandemic. I was recommended to go here by my grandmother and it was a excellent experience every time I came, very friendly people, nice dog that greets you at the door, and they do a great job at listening to you about what areas are hurting. I recommend this place for people needing physical therapy.“

“I give it 5 stars? I liked the manner of the doctor, very friendly and above all, very Professional. His very friendly receptionist also helped me a lot to be able to explain my situation to the doctor. I really recommend Beebe chiropractic, excellent service.“

“This is my favorite chiropractor I’ve even been to. Reasonable pricing, and I like that they take walk-ins. Dr. Dan does a couple of interesting style adjustments that worked really well for me, like the supine hug. I have minor scoliosis and chronic pain associated with that. I was a good candidate. If they think they might hurt you they won’t do any adjustments. My elderly Dad for example was not a good candidate. So you have nothing to worry about going here, they are careful and take good care of you. Go and get some affordable, drug free, work free, pain relief.“

“I have seen Derun for over ten years and he is the best massage therapist I have ever been to. I have recommended Jian's chiropractic work to members of my family and all my friends. I highly recommend this clinic.“

“Dr. Scott Shephard has consistently provided me with exceptional care for my back issues over the years, and my recent visit was no exception. I was experiencing debilitating pain and difficulty standing up straight, with any movement causing intense discomfort, particularly when walking. Upon entering his clinic, I was hunched over in agony, but after receiving his treatment, I left standing tall and feeling significantly improved. Dr. Shephard's expertise and abilities as a healer are truly remarkable, and I have come to rely on his exceptional skills to restore my alignment and alleviate my pain.“

“I've seen both John Zdor and Chad Smurthwaite at this location and both were professional and effective.The exercises I was given during my PT were targeted, simple, and effective. And yielded clear results.“

“Very comfortable and time efficient experience. She identified the problem very quickly and waisted no time thoroughly addressing it. I left with the relief I'd hoped to find there and I look forward to going again soon.“
