COPA - Key Persons
Dr. Hedges is so patient, friendly, treats my children like actual individuals and respects their individuality, she takes interest in what they are doing, engages them in the appointment and really makes sure all of our questions are answered.
She's an Amazing DR.
Dr. Hedges always makes me and my kids feel very comfortable. She spends time talking with the kids and interacting with them. She is an amazing Dr. that we have loved having in our lives since our kids were born. 12+ years!
She Explains Things Clearly
Dr Hedges cares for my child as if she were her own. She explains things clearly and always asks if we have any questions. She speaks directly to my child about her health and makes her feel that she is as involved in decisions as I am.
We love Dr. Perryman! She always listens to any concerns that we have and explains everything so we can understand. Not only does she show us respect, but treats our 2 year old with all of the concern she would her own child.
Dr. Gutman is awesome! She is friendly and direct and makes my child feel comfortable. She is thorough so I feel comfortable as a mom. thank you!
Dr. Lachman is amazing with my kids' needs. She always gets back to me in a timely fashion and helps in every way possible. I feel like she has gone above and beyond for my children and I know I can trust her and she will answer any questions we have.
My experience with Dr. Lachman is excellent every single time we meet. She's knowledgeable, down to earth, steadfast in her approach, and superb with all three of my kids. She doesn't hesitate to give me real life mama advice from her own personal experiences. Which is always greatly appreciated. I love knowing that we have someone dedicated, logical, and kind hearted on our side.
I believe it is truly hard to have a bad day while working as a pediatrician at Central Oregon Pediatric Associates (COPA).
Dr. Garza is the BEST. We absolutely Love her!! She is my go-to doctor because she is so kind and knowledgable.
I am thrilled to return to my home state of Oregon to pursue my passion as a Pediatric Allergist and Clinical Immunologist in Central Oregon and beyond. I specialize in caring for both children and adults with allergic and immunologic conditions including disorders of the airway. I enjoy caring for patients with common diseases such as food allergies, asthma, eczema, drug allergy, hives and seasonal allergies.
It's of utmost importance to me as a pediatrician to celebrate with families when their child thrives and we journey together through challenging times. I am grateful for the training and mentorship I received at Duke University as a trainee and faculty member where I received specialized training in disorders of the immune system and management of recurrent infections. This experience included the delicate transition of pediatric patients into adulthood through long-term relationships. I feel fortunate that families entrust their child to my care and I love being a part of their team.
