Good luck, Joe. One of Ochoa's habits is to take notes verbally, using a small tape-recorder that he flicks on and off. Eventually, he started having me speak into it as I described my history. I mention it because it surprised me and almost threw me off, but it's the way he works.

Yes, my first (and only) visit was at least two hours. (As I mentioned, he's focused on diagnosis and there hasn't been a reason for me to return.) He does a detailed case history and physical exam. He was doing some writing and thinking towards the end before we discussed some conclusions. I received a seven page written report from him a week or so later, as well.

Joe, Please update this thread after you've seen this doctor. I'm very interested in your impression of him and his clinic. I'm in the portland area so I may have to see him too.

Hi. Theta here. Just wondered how it went for you with Dr. Ochoa last year? I'm interested as I am newly displanted to the NW Oregon coast and suffering with PN. This thread though old has been helpful for me. Hope that you are doing well. Thanks, Theta
