About Me:
Trained at the nation’s finest medical institutions, Dr. Westhoff is a thoughtful physician with advanced surgical skills. She graduated AOA from Hopkins, received the resident research award at OHSU, and completed her fellowship in gynecologic oncology at UCSF/Stanford's highly respected joint program. There, Dr. Westhoff gained expertise in the surgical and clinical care of patients with a variety of gynecologic cancers. She is focused on continuing her work to improve the standard of care through the use of minimally invasive surgical methods and Enhanced Recovery After Surgery pathways. Dr. Westhoff is highly regarded by previous patients for her warmth and compassion. Her humility is a reflection of the values she learned growing up in a small farm community and her time teaching middle school science. Her commitment to service for others includes traveling to Ethiopia to perform prolapse surgeries and developing an after school anatomy class for at-risk youth.

Dr Gina Westhoff is the best doctor ever and a wonderful person. I wish she could be my doctor for everything, not just her specialty. I mostly go for my regular checkups to see her, not that she needs to see me.

Dr Westhuff is very pro-active and thorough. She has done an amazing job in preparing for a surgery that is coming up [date removed]. I am very impressed with the care I am receiving.

Visit good - Billing system online is not clear. I can't see records of statements mailed to match up with payments made online. It should be simpler to follow.

I cant imagine having a more caring, professional, empathetic care team. From the front desk folks to the medical asistants and nurses/PAs to the amazing Dr. Westhoff, the confidence I have in them takes away a lot of the anxiety I feel about cancer survivorship.

Dr. Gina Westhoff has always been such a caring, thoughtful and think-outside-of-the box doctor that I needed for post cancer operation care. Thank you Dr. Westhoff!

I received return calls in regards to questions about my care on not feeling well or prescription drug questions. The nurses respond in a timely manner.

As I was making another appt I overheard a staff member say my first and last name and then she was talking about me to whoever was in the nurse's station. I said something to the receptionist about it but don't know if she said something to the lady..I wasn't impressed and want someone to talk to her about how unprofessional she was.

It was the regular 3 month visit to check if the cancer had come back. Seeing Dr. Westhoff was like seeing an old friend.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Extremely knowledgeable, made me feel very comfortable with the necessary medical procedures that are to follow, at the same time very personable, never made me feel rushed and made sure all my questions were answered to my satisfaction. She is very caring and reassuring, at the same time making sure you understand possible issues that could arise. I would recommend Dr Westhoff and her PA Heather (great team) to anyone without hesitation.

I did not see Dr. Westhoff, only her PA. I have nothing but respect for Dr. Westhoff. Her PA called me by my legal name, not my preferred name, which I know is in my chart. This was a gynecology appointment. It clearly states in my chart that I am past due for my PAP. No PAP was performed. I am 3 years in remission of cancer caused by HPV. This should have been done. The P A did not check for abnormal lymph nodes in my groin. She did not ask any questions about my LCH. She asked about my last mammogram and colonoscopy. That info is in my chart. I an current on both those. It was obvious the PA did not look at my chart prior to seeing me. I feel as if nothing was accomplished at my visit yesterday

I was referred to Dr. Westhoff for ovarian tumor. I liked her & her PA immediately. Put me at ease, great listeners and answered all my questions! Didn't feel rushed and her manner is wonderful. Very positive experience.

People there recognize me and are very friendly.

I often feel rushed during all of my appointments at Legacy. My doctors seem very competent, but do not seem to have the time or the skill for patient-focused care. I am interrupted sometimes or feel rushed to get out questions that are important to me.

Was an excellent visit.
Very thorough and explained everything clearly!
