At West Linn Family Health Center, we have focused our practice on obstetrics (delivering babies), pediatrics (care of children), and those areas of medicine that are common to young and middle-aged families.  About half of what we do is a combination of OB/GYN and pediatrics and the other half has to do with the common things that occur in those families, such as sports medicine, minor surgery, and chronic illness (such as diabetes or hypertension). We also have a full compliment of other specialists and sub-specialists in all areas of medicine that we have a close working relationship with for those individuals that need to be referred for more specialized care.

In the situations where patients need to be referred to other physicians, we still remain the captain of the team, so to speak, focusing on the individual and the big picture rather than a specific disease process.  This helps ensure that you don’t get lost in the system.  In family practice, our specialty is you.
