About Me:

I have been practicing midwifery since 2010 and in that time have been privileged to attend over 700 births. I believe a woman should be comfortable with her provider and that she and her provider should have a trusting relationship with open communication. I started out at PCC, transferred to and graduated from U of O and went to Columbia University for nursing & midwifery. After graduation from Columbia, I practiced in the Philadelphia area for five years where I gained invaluable experience and since starting with the Legacy Health System in 2015, I've gained even more experience and insight into how best to care for women and their families. In my free time, I enjoy many outdoor activities, including running, hiking, camping, skiing, paddling and mountain biking - many of these activities include my husband and our two German Shepherds. I love being an Oregonian, the Pacific Northwest is an amazing place to be outdoors.

Education:
Master of Science in Nursing: Columbia University
Bachelors of Science in Nursing: Columbia University
Bachelor of Science: University of Oregon

Heather Corrion was very informative, and professional. Up to date with new relevant studies and information. She was a great listener, explained the process, we brainstormed ideas , medications and adaptations of future treatments. She was personable and well spoken . I appreciated her being open to my thoughts and listening to me and my needs. I couldn't be more happier to call her my new women's health primary provider.

This provider was the best that I've had the pleasure of working with. I will probably be seeing about switching my provider to have Heather become my regular doctor here!

The provider is very kind, down to earth, and makes you feel comfortable being open and honest. You are made to feel that you're really being listened to.

My visit was to establish a new provider, after retirement if my former one. I was pleasantly surprised with Heather Carrion. She is knowledgeable, informative and listens well. I've been going to that clinic for many years because of the great staff (Carrie, assistant), and the providers who I appreciate so much. (Formerly Kelly Carter and now Heather Carrion) I was so pleased when I left the office!

The only piece of constructive criticism I really want to give is that, maybe if you're not 100 percent certain someone has HSV over a tear/friction burn don't say that you're pretty sure they have HSV I spent all weekend crying, thinking my life had completely changed, mulling over who possibly could have given it to me. Preparing having those conversations in my head with recent sex partners. All to find out it was in fact a friction burn and NOT HSV.

Receptionist was very busy with phone calls when I arrived to check in and to sign out. Dr was do great. Very relatable. No shaming and understood my concerns and needs.

  May 27, 2024
Heather C was so amazing. She really listened to me and gave me answers to questions that my pcp hadn't given me yet. I really felt if there was a way for her to help, she would willing make the effort to do so. Please do everything you can to keep her!

  May 23, 2024

My overall experience with her was awesome! She was very personable and knew exactly what to say and do to make me feel more comfortable. I felt that she was informative and sensitive when answering any questions I had as well. I would most certainly recommend her to family and friends.

First time seeing Heather. I scheduled an appointment to have a pap smear and IUD removal. She was noticeably upset and dry when I asked for a recommended method of contraception that was not hormonal. She sis not perform the pap smear and removed the IUD. She was not kind or respectful of my preference by showing any empathy. Not aware of cultural differences and not open to dialog at all. I arrived late to the appointment and I don't think that was the reason. My daughters in the room were appalled about the lack of good service or care. The rest of the staff was awesome as always. She could have stated her point but also provide next steps or info about non hormonal methods. She said the insurance does not cover those and thst I can find info and purchase online.

  Mar 27, 2024
She is great. 1st time in an extremely long time I have left a doctors visit not feeling bad about myself

  Mar 20, 2024
I found the provider to be extremely thoughtful, educated, and present.

  Mar 20, 2024
I came for my yearly annual exam I have done for the past 20 yrs. Delivered my child clinic and Legacy. I had to get a new doctor because mine left due to the FBC nonsense. The new midwife said she is unable to do my basic yearly blood work because it was not in her scope of practice like the MD. What? She also basically refused to do my annual exam because recommendations are every 3-5 years even though that is what my appointment was for. My insurance pays and I requested it then why won't an OB office do it? I left with nothing done. Why was this not mentioned when I made the appointment?

  Mar 19, 2024
Heather is the literal best provider I've ever had. I honestly look forward to my appointments and that's saying a lot considering the nature of my visits with her. Very happy. Please get a contract with blue cross blue shield. I would not be able to find someone else like Heather.

  Mar 15, 2024

She was so nice. I liked how she was courteous to my concerns and she walked me through everything before doing anything. She also was so kind and let me stop any procedure at anytime for no reason. She really put me first and I loved that.

  Feb 25, 2024
Heather Carrion was great. She always takes the time to listen and answer any questions. She has excellent bedside manner, and makes me feel at ease. The whole staff at the office was also very kind and respectful. Please work out the issue with Regence Blue Cross so I can continue to come here

Everything was good and mindful

I guess I was a little surprised to find out that the girl that did my annual was only a midwife. I've always had a doctor but she was very good and seemed very knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable with her and I would see her again.
