The whole process, from our first consultation to the aftercare post surgery, has been exemplary. The whole time we have felt in good hands with Mr Pepper, he has constantly informed us of what was happening and why and was immensely kind and patient and engaging with our child.

Excellent experience with Dr. Pepper and the Portland team. My son (there for an adenotonsillectomy) said as we were leaving "except for the actual surgery, this whole day was really fun!" The hospital gave us good pain control, and entire stay was very smooth.
