General Practitioners

Primary Care
Prior to your first appointment, you will need to obtain a referral from your primary care physician. Following our receipt of the referral, we will schedule your first appointment and, if time allows, mail you paperwork that must be filled out prior to your seeing the doctor.
Emergency Care
If you have had any of the following symptoms within the last 14 days, you should not come to the clinic. Please call to reschedule or cancel your appointment with us and call your primary care provider for guidance. Do not go to your doctor’s office, an urgent care clinic or the emergency room without calling first. Salem Health has a dedicated number to call for testing: (503) 814-0099.
Urinary Incontinence
Urinary incontinence is defined as the inability to control the bladder. It can be mild, resulting in leakage when you laugh, exercise or cough, to severe, resulting in the sudden incontrollable urge to urinate and inability to control it until you reach a toilet. To determine more about your case of incontinence, it is likely that your doctor will perform a test. This may include a urinalysis, ultrasound, cystoscopy, or urodynamics study. Treatment for your incontinence will depend on the severity of the case.

Pelvic Pain
Labor and Delivery
Vaginal prolapse occurs when the pelvic organs (rectum, intestines, and vagina) are no longer held in place by the muscles and ligaments supporting them, resulting in their collapse into the vagina. As many as 34 million women are affected by this problem. Prolapse can be caused by weakening of the muscles due to childbirth, surgeries, and obesity. Often patients suffering from vaginal prolapse also show signs of bowel dysfunction or bladder over-activity.

Bladder Cancer
Though bladder cancer often affects those over 50, it can occur at any age. With regular checkups, bladder cancer is often diagnosed while it is at an early stage and still treatable. Symptoms of bladder cancer include, but are not limited to: pelvic pain, urinary frequency, and varying amounts of blood in the urine. Unlike many cancers, the rate of recurrence in bladder cancer is high. Thus, after being treated for the cancer, your doctor will likely require regular screenings of the bladder for the first four years following surgery.
Urology
Urology is a surgical specialty that deals with conditions of the urinary system in men and women and the male reproductive system.
Kidney Cancer
If a kidney cancer is suspected, physicians look for trace amounts of blood in the urine sample, or in more extreme cases, large amounts of blood.
Kidney Stones
Aside from treating kidney cancers, urologists primarily diagnose and treat problems associated with kidney stones. Kidney stones are small, rock-like pieces (usually of calcium or acid salts) that form in the kidney. Although kidney stones can be caused by many things, they are often caused when urine is highly concentrated, allowing the minerals to crystallize and clump together. Often, patients feel no discomfort with kidney stones until the move into the ureter. As a stone moves into the ureter, it can be painful and cause blood in the urine, nausea and vomiting. Often with smaller stones, the stone will move down the ureter and be “passed” from the body with urination. Doctors often advise patients to increase water intake when attempting to pass a stone (2-3 liters per day).
Testicular Cancer
Although testicular cancer is one of the rarer forms of cancer in men, it is the most common cancer in men ages 15-34. Testicular cancer is highly treatable, even if it has moved beyond the testicle, but it is important to perform regular self checks and see your doctor for an annual physical to ensure early detection.
Interstitial Cystitis
Urinary Tract Infection
Intersitital Cystitis (IC) is most often characterized by frequent urination, urgency, and pain in the pelvic or suprapubic area. Some people experience only pain or pressure and discomfort. The symptoms of IC are often similar to that of a urinary tract infection but the patient’s urine is usually free of bacteria. In order to diagnose IC, your doctor may do a cystoscopy, a simple in-office procedure. You may also be asked to keep a diary of your voiding.
Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers diagnosed in men over 50. The prostate is a small, semen-producing gland, about the size of a golf ball, located between the bladder and rectum. If diagnosed early and before it has spread beyond the prostate gland, prostate cancer can be successfully treated. Unfortunately, some prostate cancers are aggressive and can spread quickly, rapidly becoming much harder to treat. Because of this risk, it is important than men undergo regular screenings (the rectal exam and blood test know as a PSA test) to check the health of the prostate.
Cancer Care

Ultrasound
Kidney cancers, most commonly caused by a renal cell carcinoma, rarely show symptoms in the early stages. Often, diagnosis occurs while a physician is testing for other conditions by abdominal ultrasound or a CT scan. Although less common, transitional cell carcinomas (also affecting the ureters or bladder) begin as kidney cancers.
Computed Tomography
During this procedure your doctor will remove the affected testicle through an incision in the groin. Your doctor may also decide that the lymph nodes and tissue in the surrounding area must be removed as well. Often this is the only surgery necessary in cases of testicular cancer and your doctor will then closely monitor your progress during frequent follow-up visits, CT scans, and blood tests over the following 2-3 years.
Chemotherapy
In some cases, doctors will require the patient to undergo further treatment in the form of Radiation Therapy of Chemotherapy. For more information about these treatments, please see the National Cancer Institute website.
Radiation Therapy

Vasectomy
Vasectomy is a simple, in-office procedure that provides men with a safe, highly effective, permanent form of birth control. During the procedure, your physician will simply cut and seal the tubes that carry sperm to the semen. Most men experience few to no side effects after surgery. It is important that before the surgery is performed, the patient understands that he will no longer be able to father children. There are vasectomy reversal surgery options; however, these are not guaranteed to restore fertility.
Hysterectomy

Physical Therapists

Physical Therapy
Physicians treat this condition a number of ways depending on severity. Sometimes patients can perform physical therapy to help the problem, but often physicians must place a device in the vagina to support the weakened muscles.
