Providence selects one "Ask an Expert" question to answer in our online newsletter and on our Web site each month. Questions are selected based on their general interest to a broad audience.
Please note: "Ask an Expert" is an educational forum only — we do not respond directly to your questions or provide medical advice through our Web site or by e-mail. If you have an urgent medical question, please contact your physician right away.
To choose a Providence physician or to connect with other Providence medical and support services, you may call the Providence Resource Line at 503-574-6595 or 800-562-8964.
If you are a Providence Health Plan member, you may call Providence RN for medical advice, using the phone number on the back of your membership card.
Our Healthwise® library also may be helpful in answering your questions. Search the Healthwise library.
