Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Flora is very thorough and professional.

Professional and kind
I had my colonoscopy and felt completely comfortable with Dr Flora, his team, and the procedure. The process was clearly explained ahead prior to starting and the results were reviewed afterwards. I had excellent care from the kind person at the front desk to the nurse walking me out when we were finished.

Not only a great and caring doctor. Face it, a colonoscopy isn't something one really looks forward to but the professionalism by Dr. Flora and his staff put me totally at ease. Dr. Flora explained everything that was going to transpire as well as telling me the results. I highly recommend him and the Oregon Clinic!

Dr. Flora is no doubt exemplary at what he does. I always feel better after speaking with him. I have a six-hour round trip drive to see him, and although I know the responsibility for my body is my own, I would have appreciated a zoom call or phone call to find out it was my last appointment with him. It would have saved me a lot of time; however, I will continue to keep in touch and send my information to him. I hope we can continue to have a good Doctor-patient relationship in the future. -Brad Bledsoe May 8 2021

Dr Flora cured my hepatitis C with a new drug that he got for me 5 years ago. It worked and the last time I saw him he said that I don't need to do any more ultrasound or bloodwork or any other tests because the tests always come back completely normal.
