Receptionist could be more welcoming and more respectful answering questions.

Dr McKay is a thorough and wonderful care giver

  Jan 12, 2024
I would recommend Dr Mckay to any of my friends or family. She is the best doctor I have ever had in my life. I would not recommend any legacy clinics to any of my friends or family.

I am disappointed Dr. Mc Kay is leaving and I couldn't get a new doctor at Tualatin clinic. It was easy to get one at Lake Oswego.We have been going to the West Linn clinic for 10 years and disappointed that we must change

  Dec 21, 2023
With crowded patient appointments and little physicians available I felt fortunate to see Dr. M.

  Dec 19, 2023
I think you guys have made a terrible mistake closing this clinic. And worse you are letting Dr. Samantha Mckay leave. Bad mistake!!

  Dec 12, 2023
Everyone I interacted with were nothing but respectful, kind and polite and knowledgeable.

  Dec 8, 2023
She listens & gives you time when you need it.

  Dec 4, 2023
I need in person appointments but there seems to be a long time of waiting to get one. I am offered virtual appointments but find them very uncomfortable for me as I need to watch the mouth and physical person I am with to feel 'heard'

  Nov 20, 2023
DOCTOR AND NURSE, Always - nice and helpful and listens to me. - and cares . -- as for receptionists - always just down to business - not very friendly - - plus they change way too often - nice to come In and talk to the same person.

Dr McKay Is a very fine caring doctor

  Nov 9, 2023
I love Dr. McKay and her staff is always amazing. I feel like they go above and beyond anything I could possibly ask for..

  Nov 7, 2023
I felt that Dr. McKay was very respectful. She was very pleasant and easy to talk with. She explained various tests that were available. She spent time discussing issues with me and never seemed to act as if she was in a hurry to get the examination over. It was a very good experience.

Dr McKay has always been very easy to talk to.

  Oct 24, 2023
Always good with Dr McKay

Dr. McKay is very thorough and kind. She never seems rushed and is very knowledgeable.

  Oct 3, 2023
Dr. McKay and Erin are knowledgeable, courteous, helpful and always take time to listen to their patients. The wait time has always been less than 15 minutes.

  Sep 29, 2023

  Sep 7, 2023
My doctor is the best that anyone could ask for. The staff are wonderful. Every time.

Everyone there is excellent!

Dr Mckay and her staff are very professional and friendly . Im never stressed about seeing her. She's been my Dr for years and she's compassionate, experienced and she genuinely cares. She treat a problem with pain meds without knowing the cause.she treats the problem not the symptom. I like that about her but sometimes I wish she was a little more leinant, but then she wouldn't be as amazing!

  Aug 22, 2023
Dr. Mckay is very interested in her patients and always takes the time to suggest other things that might be of help to me. She is thorough in explaining options as well as my health.

  Aug 22, 2023
My initial appointment was canceled due to provider emergency. I rescheduled. Waited 1hour to see the Dr. The appointment seemed rushed. I felt the Dr. Had to make up for the hour delay so it seemed disconnected.

  Aug 21, 2023
With each new visit to Dr. McKay, I become more impressed with her knowledge and compassion. And her MA is equally impressive.

  Aug 17, 2023
My big complaint is no Phlebotomist in the Oregon City West Linn area. It is unacceptable to drive to Meridian Park. I may switch to Providence providers if this doesn't change.

  Aug 17, 2023
EVERYONE in this office is extremely friendly, courteous and knowledgeable . I feel fortunate to have Dr. McKay as my PCP. She is very personable, pleasant, easy to talk to and very knowledgeable!

  Aug 8, 2023
Provider did not listen to patient. Patient provided info on forms as well as verbally, yet Provider took it upon herself to lecture the patient. I feel like Provider needs to learn moe about communicating with young adults - with respect and no judgment.

  Aug 7, 2023
Time seems to be the critical aspect of appointments...whether or not you are finished talking with the Dr. I did not receive any treatment or problem advice but am supposed to come back every two months to deal with other issues. I feel that I need some help sooner.

  Aug 7, 2023
Best provider I have ever seen. Dr McKay is very well educated and has a wonderful bedside manner. She basically saved my husband's life

  Aug 4, 2023
YOUR PRICES ARE WAY WAY TOO HIGH.

  Aug 3, 2023
I love how Dr. McKay takes the time to listen to me about the medical challenges I am facing as well as provides me with guidance when there are issues that may involve specialists. I feel like I walk out of her office with a plan of action.

  Jul 18, 2023
Dr. McKay is the absolute best!! She helps me so much. I can't thank her enough for her honesty, kindness, and time! She is wonderful!!

  Jun 30, 2023
Dr. Mckay is the most, caring, and compassionate physician I have ever had. She has helped me so much over they years that I have been seeing her. Dr. Mckay had helped me in so many ways. Mentally and physically. I am thankful to call her my primary care.

  Jun 15, 2023
Dr McKay listens, and hears, which I appreciate, it's not always that way with doctors, for instance, there are several doctors in the Legacy System I would never see again.

  Jun 13, 2023
There seemed some confusion about why I wanted a sit down with Dr. McKay. I learned the definition of what had been mentioned in a bone density test: degenerative disc disease. My doctor didn't know of my concern. This was a new diagnosis. I now have answers and a plan to manage this condition.

  Jun 8, 2023
Wait time for a procedure. I only have one hour as I have a driver on limited time.

  Jun 5, 2023
These are simply the best health providers anyone could ask for.

  Jun 1, 2023
Overall extremely positive I was surprised when I checked in the person who helped me was not as friendly as most of the others always are.

  May 22, 2023
Everything was fine except it is difficult to get an appointment timely. Rescheduling an existing appointment took another 6 weeks to the next available.

  May 16, 2023
My doctor has always been very kind, attentive and explains everything very well. I've been with her for over 10 years and she never rushes but always takes her time. I appreciate her alot.I feel heard.

  May 9, 2023
Good experience.

  May 8, 2023
Dr. McKay and staff provide the best experience possible given the circumstances of the visit.

  May 5, 2023
Dr. McKay is best doctor I have had since I was [age removed]. Erin her MA is also stellar! You need many more like them. Need many more doctors like her and clinics like this. I have sent many of my friends here. Worked in health insurance for 37 years & Legacy rocks!

  May 2, 2023
Erin and Dr. McKay were very efficient, courteous and thorough.
