Dr.Carr is what all doctors should be; thorough, professional, compassionate. My first visit with her was about an hour or more long, she took the time to ask me many questions. I felt very comfortable with her and felt she was a doctor I could really trust. I studied nursing for 2yrs and worked in the medical field for 14yrs, so I know a thing or two of what a good doctor should be like. She wasn't your typical doctor who spends 5 mins with you and then moves on to the next. My extremely late review due to my long time struggles with Depression and moving back to California. I was cleaning out my inbox and found this email asking for feedback. Dr.Carr deserved the time for me to write this review, even though it was so long ago. I honestly wish I could move back to Oregon so she can be my doctor. I have yet to still find a good doctor I could feel comfortable with and trust in California.

More about Dr. Kirsten Carr, MD

I have wanted to be a doctor since I was 5 years old. My days of play were occupied with red wagons tied to bikes. My first patients arrived to me via these makeshift ambulances. I dreamed of ideal practices of medicine where a small town doctor would care for an entire town. I watched as these men took on the weight of caring for an entire community without illness and sometimes without pay. My parents and family modeled for me the hard work and caring attitude I would need to be successful in my endeavors. I have traveled all over the country and even parts of the world. I have never found a place that feels as much like home as Portland. For this small town Eastern Oregon girl, that was a hard realization, but I still longed to bring that sense of community to my patients. I worked in a few clinics in outer lying parts of Portland. Although the communities were smaller, the fit just wasn’t right. The places were smaller but not more intimate. My husband and I decided to move back to Multnomah Village where we had lived during my time at Oregon Health and Sciences University for medical school. Although Portland has many wonderful neighborhoods, this is the one that spoke to us. Small shops, great food, familiar faces, great people, parks and schools within walking distance all made this neighborhood our home. We now have the practice we want, and look forward to helping you with your health!

Really pleasant and thorough. Even referred me directly to a chiropractor on site an I was seen by him right away as well.
Office Manager is amazing. Dr. Carr is even more amazing, she's a great listener and solved all my problems.

She was very helpful and friendly!
Verified patient
I was very pleased with my experience. Dr. Carr genuinely listened to my concerns, and dug in with second level questioning to provide a really excellent result. Dr. Carr seems to genuinely care for her patients. You will definitely feel like you’re being heard at Dr. Carr’s office rather than simply being processed.
Verified patient
Dr. Carr is the best doctor I have had the opportunity to work with. She's optimistic and proactive, and is aware of patients' monetary restrictions as far as prescriptions are concerned. Not to mention, she's a wonderful person with a great attitude, to boot!
Verified patient
I haven't been to the doctor in a while and she made me feel very comfortable. I look forward to using her as my primary physician in the future.
frendly and professional
Verified patient
Nice DR. Helped me with my meds. got me on track.
She is very personable and attentive and I would say that we need more doctors who are easy to talk to like her. I never felt rushed or like I was just a number.
Verified patient
She has great bedside manner and will examine you in her office, an exam room or even the kids play room depending on where is the most comfortable. Along with Western medicine, she is comfortable recommending lifestyle changes / natural path solutions to a given situation. I have made her my kids primary doctor as well.
