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.

Energy and light!
Met Dr. Collada in hospital hallway. He was hurrying up and down. Introducing himself. His energy and light made me feel like u gad to have him as my brain surgeon. He's why I'm still here. He did my emergency surgery 5 years ago!?

Update: 28 months after brain tumor surgery I was able to return to work because of this neurosurgeon. Yes I had months and months of physical and occupational therapy, but I’m back at work. I couldn’t have done this without Dr Collada! i don’t know if you’ll ever read this, but know that you are loved and respected by my family and I…

I miss Jackie and her daughter
I miss the old office! Things were ran so smoothly & the girls were always friendly and very caring. Two years could go by and they still remember who I was. The new office just isn’t that family friendly office. I’m just another person they won’t remember, not to mention One of the girls upfront was really rude to me when I asked to talk to Jackie. Excuse me, I did not know she didn’t work there anymore, it’s too bad she doesn’t! Looks like I’ll be looking for a new neurosurgeon in Portland.

Thee best neurosurgeon in Oregon
He’s great! Lindsey is awesome! I miss her mom Jackie, she had compassion and loved her job! These new people at the front desk don’t care, don’t like their jobs and it shows! If it wasn’t for Dr. Collada & Lindsay I would have gone to Portland.

A great neurosurgeon
My husband had Dr. Collada for a much needed nerve stimulator the other day, and he was fantastic. Did a great job and all is doing well and providing relief. Many kudos to all the crew that assisted, particularly Dr. Manuylov who did anesthesiology. If you need any kind of neurosurgery, Dr. Collada is the one you want to see.

Dr Colada did surgery on my upper spine/neck area about 20 years ago, I was losing the use of my arm because of spinal stenosis. After the surgery I recovered quickly and was able to return to normal activities in a few weeks. 20 years later I have not had a problem. He changed my life and I’m forever grateful.

Jackie worked a miracle and got me in to see doc colatta quickly. Lindsey and the test of the staff were amazing, and Dr colatta, .. well frankly he is the best doctor I've ever had. These ppl truly loved me and cared for me. I woke up from surgery with complete relief from my back pain. I absolutely love these ppl and cannot repay what they have given me: a new life. God bless Maurice, Jackie, Lindsey, and the rest.

The time frame of scheduling wasn't the fastest. However after my referral was reviewed I was contacted by his referral coordinator Jackie who made my experience that much better. Dr. Collada took his time with me and explained my options in a way I could understand and appreciate. His medical nurse Lynnsea was funny yet professional and put me at ease and explained my surgery process well. I am looking forward to getting my life back and being free of pain.

Dr. Collada is an amazing doctor. I felt extremely comfortable with him and his lovely office staff. Although his schedule is extremely hard to get on to because of his high demand and popularity, it was well worth the wait. His staff, Jackie and Lindsay are extremely nice and very helpful with any questions that I had. Would recommend anyone to Dr. Collada.

Dr. Collada seems like he's capable of thinking outside of the box. He's the first doctor I've seen in the last 6 years that suggested real options for addressing my chronic spine pain. I left feeling like I had some hope now. He also had a sense of humor that was refreshing for a doctor that seemed to really know his specialty. I'd recommend him in a heartbeat, even though he's a neurosurgeon and not a cardiac surgeon ; )
