Patient Reviews
Jan 27, 2020
I saw Dr. Piatt when he was practicing at OHSU in the 90’s. I always loved going to see him; especially to see what bow tie he was wearing. He was very dedicated, to the point he came in to perform an emergency shunt revision while on vacation. He always listened and took time with myself and my parents to talk about concerns. I wish as an adult I could still see him.
