Dr. Gould is kind, caring, and took time to explain my condition and my options for treatment. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing gynecology care.

I had a fantastic experience with Dr Gould. She was knowledgeable, empathetic, patient, and experienced. She asked great questions and listened well. My experience at the clinic was very positive. Parking was easy, the facility was safe and clean, and the staff were all courteous and kind. The only issue was that I had to wait four months to get an appointment despite having a STAT referral for an urgent issue. I understand this is because Dr. Gould is a specialist and in high demand.

Dr Gould is very knowledgeable and listens carefully to any health concerns. The MA was friendly and helpful with obtaining an urgent appointment for a follow up mammogram.

I already have recommended Dr. Gould to friends. She is terrific! I like that she has an office in Tualatin.

  Mar 11, 2024
I waited about 5 minutes to get a room and about 10 minutes for the doctor. The doctor was incredibly kind and understanding and throughly explained everything she was talking about. I felt respected and trusted this doctors opinion and feel safe having her as my surgeon. I would recommend her to anybody struggling with endometriosis.

  Feb 13, 2024
Dr Gould is lovely ! Professional and wonderful. I needed to see her as a follow up and her clinic hours are limited that are closer to my home vs driving to down town portland. That's my choice but waited longer time to see her due to location.

  Feb 7, 2024
Dr. Gould listened to everything I said and used that information to create a plan and offer me help. She was very detailed and allowed me to ask questions. She was respectful of my past sexual trauma and made me feel very safe during the physical exam.

Everyone treated me with respect and kindness, carefully listened to my concerns and were professional from the moment of encounter. They are to be commended and acknowledged for the superb work they are all doing. It is apparent that this team genuinely cares about their profession and patients. If only all healthcare providers were like this team! Please pass on my gratitude for their extraordinary work!

The best! Loved Dr Gould and her treatment and bedside manner!

  Dec 5, 2023
My previous OBGYN was not the best when it came to concerns about my family history and my health connected to that. So I was very nervous about seeing a new doctor but she was absolutely amazing. I felt truly connected with her and she gave me so much information which was a first for me. She is is the best OBGYN ever and I appreciate her so much!

Dr Gould is the best

  Nov 27, 2023
Dr. Gould and her MA Fern are amazing! Always listen to my questions and provide kind, professional service.

  Nov 27, 2023
The question on follow up with lab results is not a fair reflection of the service, because this was the first time I saw Dr Gould and the blood test was only ordered and done yesterday, so I had to answer never.

She is the very best obgyn I have ever seen

  Oct 12, 2023
Love Dr. Gould. Worked with her in the OR for many years and her skills, compassion to her patients and staff goes above and beyond. Good educator to staff. Everyone at both of her clinics are well prepared, professional and kind. Best gyn I've ever been too. Dr. Gould helped me though an incredibly upsetting time with my previous gynecologist. I felt so lucky to see her and have her take her time to talk with me even though I wasn't her patient at the time. I was seeing a NP and she spoke with Dr. Gould and the rest is history. She helped save me from a mental health breakdown 10+ stars for every one there.

Dr Gould is so caring, Empathic and knowledgeable

  Sep 25, 2023
Probably one of the best Dr. Visits I've ever had!

  Sep 14, 2023
Provider was very nice. I would have liked more in depth explainations about surgery and disease. I felt that the answers I was given were very short / least information possible.

I really love Dr. Gould. She is so knowledgeable, helpful and personable during my visits. She cares about her patients. I highly recommend her and Legacy.

Dr. Gould is an incredible provider. I have raved about her for years after my very first visit with her was filled with her listening intently to my concerns and teaching me how to advocate for myself in women's health. She continues to always care for my opinion on my care and includes me in my plan of care. She is such an asset to the medical field and women's health in particular.

Dr. Gould is awesome. I wish all specialists were more willing to listen about all your health problems and not just their specialized area.
