Anyone know any good Drs in Portland area?

Welcome from me too!I believe suzieqtwa lives in portland you could pm her and see and so does Dianyla, they are both members here. Good luck. I have a client up there if I talk to her I will ask for you too.

Are you looking for allopathic (traditional western MD) or naturopathic/alternative? Also, are you looking mainly for a primary care physician who is understand, or a specific sports medicine/orthopaedist? What part of the metro area?

Many of the traditional docs I've met here are quite active; cycling, running, and triathlons seem to be a very common hobby for MDs here in Portland. My own doctor is not a cyclist herself, but she referred me to a local PT clinic in my neighborhood and I had at least one sport in common with virtually all of the therapists that worked there.

Two standout recommendations that I can make are:

A good holistic clinic for sports medicine is the Back in Motion practice. They are mainly chiropractic/naturopathic.

For women's health, Portland is home to the clinic founded and run by Dr. Tori Hudson herself, A Woman's Time.

Thank you for the responses.

Given the nature of our sport I will eventually have to seek out a PT ... and a masseuse (ART) ... and a chiropractor!

For now I was looking for a traditional doctor but the Womens Health site looks very interesting as well.

Thanks again~

Hey Dirty girl
I've lived here for about 15 years ,and I have lots of names of Doctors. The traditional doctor I'm seeing now is in her 30s ,and is a competitive cycler. I found the Portland Clinic is a great place because they have every kind of doctor you would want to see in the same building. They have 3 in the Portland area. I also have a name of a chiropractor who is also a tri athlete . He is around the downtown area. I live in Beaverton (do you know where that is)? pm me if you need names ,and numbers.

Clearwater Chiropractic in downtown Portland has a "sports medicine" focus. A great many of their patients are runners, triathletes, etc. My housemate is a massage therapist and chiropractic assistant there, and she is a cyclist and runner herself.
