Patient-centered care

Listening closely. Examining thoroughly. Treating thoughtfully. At Adventist Health Tillamook, we never treat you as just another patient, but rather an individual with unique circumstances and needs, whether it’s getting back to the sport you love or relieving the constant pain in your joints. When we treat you, we involve you. This means educating you on your condition and what to expect from your treatment. It also means presenting you with options and ensuring that you’re always at the center of decision-making regarding your care.

Testimonials

Dr. LaFleur treated the whole me. I’m rediscovering my ability to do the most mundane things again — the freedom to do them for myself. Recently, I even threw balls for batting practice at the local high school! I feel like I’ve got a new lease on life.

Eric Johnstone, Patient

Having my knees replaced has been excellent. I’m walking every day, swimming three times a week, and doing the things I enjoy again. My quality of life is 100% improved, and I don’t need pain pills anymore!
