Dr. Austin and his staff were wonderful throughout the entire process. Dr. Austin was very patient and candid with us, which I appreciated greatly. I always felt like I had good support from everyone, which was refreshing. I'm so glad I went to see him. I have a 4 year old now because of this doctor and his team.

Dr. Austin and his team were responsive, caring, respectful, and knowledgeable. I felt seen, heard, supported, informed, and taken care of during my open myomectomy surgery, and in between visits. I am so grateful to have received such high quality care. Highly recommend their services.

In my first surgery in 2016, Doctor Austin gave me an air embolism! He didn’t keep the fibroid he was removing fully submerged which sent air straight to my heart. Then in June of 2019 he was to remove another fibroid, discovered in surgery it had grown inside the uterine wall. Instead of stopping at that point Doctor Austin decided WITHOUT my person to perform uterine ablation! This was NEVER discussed prior to surgery as a plan B! A good doctor would NEVER do ANYTHING to your body without your permission! Doctor Austin convinced me he had done it in my best interest. Then he recommended a laparoscopic vaginally assisted hysterectomy. I put my trust into him regrettable again and did the operation in October of 2019. During this surgery he put a very large hole in my intestine! The hole was so LARGE that a specialist was required to do the repair! I have to live everyday of my life now with over 50 staples in my intestine and daily pain because of Doctor Austin’s poor surgical skills!

Doctor Austin Wish I had NEVER gone to Doctor Austin for my care! The first surgery he did on me was in December of 2016 and he gave me an air embolism during surgery. He was to remove the fibroid in my uterus and when performing the surgery he didn’t keep the fibroid fully submerged in water and as he cut into the fibroid air went straight to my heart! He told me that sometimes this can happen, so I believed him, he’s the doctor. Then in June of 2019 he was to surgically remove another fibroid that had grown in my uterus again. Unfortunately, the fibroid this time had grown inside the uterine wall as Doctor Austin discovered during my surgery and it couldn’t be removed according to him. Instead of stopping at that point in the surgery Doctor Austin decided WITHOUT my person to perform uterine ablation! This was NEVER discussed prior to surgery as a plan B, NEVER! A good doctor would NEVER do ANYTHING to your body without your permission, especially since there was no emergency! I was very upset to hear of what was done to me after surgery! But Doctor Austin convinced me he had done it in my best interest, so I believe him because he is the doctor. The third and final surgery I would ever allow this doctor to perform on me was on October of 2019 and I wish I NEVER had! He recommended a laparoscopic vaginally assisted hysterectomy. He said it would be much safer to do the surgery laparoscopically with having better visuals. So even though I had ALWAYS wanted to do the hysterectomy ALL vaginally, I again put trust into my doctor very regrettably! During this surgery he put a very large hole in my intestine plus even nicked my intestine in another area! The hole in my intestine was so LARGE that a specialist had to be called in to do the repair! I have to live everyday of my life with over 50 staples in my intestine because of this doctors poor surgical skills. I have discomfort daily and pain frequently because of what Doctor Austin did during my surgery to me! I’m sharing my horrible experiences with you of this doctor so you have the choice not to end up like I have, in pain and suffering daily! Talk to many doctors and get not just a second opinion but as many opinions as you need too to feel comfortable with your decision and especially with your doctor! I could have just stayed on birth control pills (my suggestion to go on in the first place which had stopped my period and discomfort) and avoided this surgery all together but this doctor didn’t make me aware that this was even an option! When I even asked him prior to my hysterectomy what are the things that can go wrong in surgery during a hysterectomy his answer was that I shouldn’t worry about that because he was doing my surgery. At that time, I interpreted this as a confident doctor, now I know that is an arrogant doctor that one should always avoid!

It's because of Dr Austin that my husband and I have our baby boy Caleb. Amazing Dr :) Thank you so much, you are very much appreciated.

Dr. Austin is awesome! He is an excellent doctor. He actually listens and respects your concerns. He is VERY knowledgeable and skilled. My favorite doctor ever!

Dr Austin spent great quality time explaining to myself and my husband about hormone replacement therapy, the pros and cons. He was full of knowledge and a great listener. I would highly recommend Dr. Austin. I look forward to my follow up appointment(s) with him.

Dr. Austin has been very kind to us in conducting regular tests himself and giving appropriate decision right away. Specially, happy with his decision of embryo transfer regardless of numbers. All we need is one baby. It's always better to try if there are more than two embryos and they are handled in lab carefully. It was devastating for us when our doctor in another state stopped the process suddenly and left us with the feeling of loosers and hopelessness. Hope all goes well until week 10.

Dr. Austin told me I would not be able to have biological children and donor eggs were my only option. We got pregnant naturally after working with (1) an integrative medicine doctor & a naturopath who helped me discover my extreme food allergies (once I removed the allergic food and added supplements my AMH and AFC counts came up) & (2) a reproductive endocrinologist at OHSU who prescribed medication to bring down my slightly elevated prolactin (which had been shortening my luteal phase.)

Dr. Austin is the best physician I have seen for ANY speciality. Period. From first meeting my husband and I had with him, to my laparoscopy, to treatment, he has always made us feel comfortable. His whole team is top notch. Thank you Dr. Austin for making this tough time a little easier!

Couldn’t be any better in my opinion. Excellent bedside manner as well as being highly knowledgeable. He takes extended periods of time to listen and consult with you about all the options. He really seems to care and is passionate about what he does. I don’t have a single negative thing to say about him.

His complete dedication to my gynecological and infertility care is astounding. His deeply intuitive medical expertise as well as state of the art office facility are the cornerstone to my healing. My daughter turns 18 this year and after careful monitoring by Dr. Austin I had a full term pregnant. Never give up hope !

This doctor is just interested in making money, he will gladly take your money and will advise all kind of procedures which will all fail and then his excuse would be that he has no idea why they failed. His office manager is cold and her excuse is too bad patient did not know better. Look for someone who will take due care and is up to speed to latest treatment plans because this doctor is not. He is the only one in the area, that is why he has patients and he does his best to exploit this sit

Stay away from this doctor, he will gladly take your money and will advise all kind of procedures which will all fail and then his excuse would be "I do not know why it did not work". His office manager is cold and when you resolve issues with her, she will say "too bad, you did not do your homework". Look for someone who will take due care and is up to speed to latest treatment plans because this doctor is not. He frequently mis diagnosis the real cause because he is greedy.

Nice people at the place. And Dr. Austin is one of the best doctors I have ever met.

Dr. Austin has the best attitude we enjoyed working with him. When I got pregnant he did 2 very early ultrasounds and explained things so much better than my regular OB. He is extremely thorough, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to.

Phenomenal Care! I have felt so cared for and so important, My husband and I had been trying for years to get pregnant and Dr Austin gave us the hope we had lost so long ago. We succeeded after 1 year at the clinic and he celebrated right along with us. There were times when I would be so devastated or panicked that I would call that office and a nurse would consult with Dr Austin and get back to me. There were many times when he called me personally. He is very good at delivering news and will stay on the line waiting for your reaction. I have never met a doctor who cared as much has he does and I am very sad that we have graduated from the Fertility Center. No other Doctor or Nursing staff can compare! Phenomenal Care!
