I really like Dr. Andersen. We talk about my general health, my lifestyle, things I can do to maintain my good health. I go home with notes, a list of additional tests I need or providers to see. All In all, I don't know when I've had a physician who seems to care about me or that I enjoy any more than Dr. Andersen.

Dr. Colene Andersen has been my Primary Care Provider for several years and I ALWAYS get the BEST care each and every time. Dr. Andersen is a very popular doctor and several of my friends/neighbors have been trying to have her as their Primary Care Provider as well, but she is extremely BOOKED and is unable to accept any more patients. I am VERY fortunate to be her patient. She's the best!!!

Kisha took my sister's vitals and recorded the data within 10 minutes of our arrival. Very nice. Leslie, Dr. Andersen's nurse/case manager dropped in to introduce herself. A very nice and supportive assistant. Dr. Andersen arrived within 10 to 15 minutes and stayed, answering all our questions, for the next 45 to 50 minutes. What a blessing she is, knowledgeable and empathetic. You have a great crew.

Dr Colene Anderson is the best. Her bedside manners, her attention to details and follow up on issues are superior to many other physicians. I feel lucky to have her a my primary physician.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Andersen is friendly, compassionate, thorough, efficient. Most recent visit was because I've been overwhelmed with medical issues and needed grounding and second opinions for big decisions pending. She also reviewed pending lab orders and sent a request for additional blood tests. With an HMO, specialists take over and connecting with my PCP has to be intentional. If I didn't like her, it would be a bother because specialists call me directly for follow up and annual exam appointments and then I have to call you or bother PCP to be sure the referral is still good. :-(
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr Andersen is an exceptional person and PCP.She listens very well and looks straight into your eyes very caringly!

Wonderful great provider Colene Andersen MD

Dr. Anderson gave me all the time I needed to ask and get answers to my questions. I didn't feel rushed out of the room. She gave me her full attention and answered my questions clearly and completely. She fully explained the lab work she was ordering and gave me a referral to the clinic's therapist for my depression. She discussed my depression and the meds I am currently taking for it.

Colene spent a good deal of time with me. Unfortunately I have some physical issues that we cannot seem to find the cause behind. I have been MRI's, CT'd, seen an audiologist, opthalmologist, and multiple bld draws, without finding the root cause. There are on going appts with various specialists (difficult to get an appt with some specialists without a months long wait). But Colene is very patient with me and keeps in contact with me..
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Andersen is highly professional and competent. She is truthful in discussing my health conditions and what I must do to maintain good health. What I truly treasure about her is her kind and compassionate nature. I know that she cares about both my mental and physical well-being. She's forthright about what I need to improve or work on, but she's not condescending as what I've experienced with some past physicians. I'm very grateful to have her as my primary physician.

I am sorry the lab at Bridgeport is closed. I do not understand why two labs in Tualatin so close together are operating. The one in Bridgeport services many elderly people and the need is so very great to have it open. Many elderly people find the transportation to either of the Tualatin labs difficult. Please fix the problem.

Dr Andersen epitomizes the primary care physician. She is an incredible clinician, treats me holistically and is kind, compassionate and always a pleasure to see. She is truly a wonderful person and representative of Legacy Health.
Dr. Anderson, Chonna, the receptionist and the lab people were all professional, warm and caring. They each listened well and took very good care of me. I set the bar high when it comes to my medical care and the the people who provide it. Dr. Anderson and her team provide excellent care. I almost never give ratings as high as I did on this questionnaire. They are all well earned.
