ACL Surgery (ACL Reconstruction) in Oregon: What to Know
In Oregon, Portland is a hub for ACL reconstruction, with OHSU Hospital And Clinics performing a high volume of these surgeries. However, smaller cities like Klamath Falls (Sky Lakes Medical Center) and Salem (Salem Hospital) also offer this procedure. Many patients travel from outside of Bend and Central Oregon for ACL surgery. OHSU is the first in Oregon to offer a newer ACL repair technique known as BEAR, which uses an implant to encourage the torn ligament to grow back together.
If you're looking to save, consider that prices can vary between facilities. While the state average is slightly higher than the national average, exploring options outside of major metropolitan areas might yield more affordable choices. Verify current pricing directly with providers.
