Tigard Orthopedic & Fracture Clinic

I am a patient of Dr. Bowman’s for a knee injury and have to say I have been very happy with the care I have received there. Although the face time I have spent with the dr himself has been very short his great staff make sure everything I need or any questions I have are taken care of. Everyone from the receptionist, schedulers, nurses and pt have been exceptional.
Dr Bowman also performed surgery on my knee and just 6 weeks later I am completely back to normal thankfully. Couldn’t ask for better results.

I noticed that Dr. Douglass is the reason for a couple of the negative reviews on Unilocal.I would like to start out by sharing that my experiences with Dr. Douglass were negative in regards to him not getting my insurance paperwork submitted in a timely fashion. This was frustrating as it had caused a delay in my care and added to the challenges I was already experiencing with Workman’s Compensation Insurance. However, I would like to also add that Dr. Douglass is no longer with Tigard Orthopedic & Fracture Clinic for quite some time now. Since then, I personally have had good experiences with this Clinic. The entire office staff is nice and helpful (especially Shady/​Dr. Bowman’s assistant and Vincent/​HR), as well as Dr. Bowman. I have been, and still am, immensely thankful to this office for their professionalism, heart and upbeat atmosphere.

I spent 40 minutes on the road and then maybe 30 out of 45 minutes in the office waiting to talk to them about workers comp claim for tendonitis and carpal tunnel. First off they gave me an x-​ray (for tendonitis? carpal tunnel?). The person who gave me the x-​ray asked me if someone told me I had carpal tunnel (like the pain isn’t enough!).
Then after seeing Dr Bowman for maybe 2 minutes he wants me to get en MRI and some kind of nerve testing SOMEWHERE ELSE. No recommendations, nothing that I can do for myself? Totally cold and rude staff, in the end I was released to work with NO RESTRICTIONS. So I guess I will be wrapping an ace bandage around my forearm until I can find someone who can
I guess the real problem is that no one want to treat you if you are injured on the job. Thanks to the president who made this so hard for me.
P. S. most people who work at my the of job eventually develop repetitive stress injury.

I checked in with an apparent foot fracture in to this clinic. After I have taken a x-​ray there and Dr. Douglass, who specialize in sport medicine, took a look at it. He was very impatient and dismissive regarding my condition and sent me off for a CT scan. He was also very equivocal whether I had a fracture or not. Since I was insured through worker comp, he needs my adjuster’s CT scan approval. But HE NEVER GOT BACK TO me regarding the approval. I called his assistant numerous times but was never answered or replied. Finally after more than 3 weeks, they called me and told me that I have Lisfranc injury. By that time I have already checked with a much more knowledgeable and responsive provider who had correctly diagnosed that I did not have any fractures with one simple x-​ray scan.
As the previous reviewer stated, the level of expertise, trust and patience is abysmal for this provider. Don’t waste your time here.

Dr. Douglas was super nice, but I was supposed to see Dr. Bowman. Dr. Douglas is a Sports Medicine Doctor and Dr. Bowman is the orthopedic surgeon. My hip was jacked up and Dr. Douglas said I would eventually need a hip replacement, but not at this point. I told my p/​t what he said and she referred me to OHSU. The new surgeon at OHSU said if they would have taken a front x ray it would have shown it was bone on bone and the only solution would be a hip replacement. I feel due to my age, 42, I was overlooked and did not get the care I should have there. Also, when I called to cancel my follow up appointment Mayra did not ask if I needed to reschedule or why I was canceling. If you truly have hip issues don’t waste your time here.
It appears the other reviewers felt the same way.
