I decided to become a doctor after living in Africa ten years ago where I grew to appreciate the value of a career that meets fundamental human needs. Originally from Kelso, Washington, I'm happy to be back in the Northwest practicing medicine. My undergraduate degree is from Willamette University, and I attended Loma Linda University for medical school.
About my practice
I love taking care of all patients, but have a particular passion for meeting the medical needs of children. I also enjoy the special privilege of caring for entire families that being a Family Medicine Physician offers. I recognize the importance of the influence of healthy lifestyle, and emotional and spiritual care on the health of my patients.
How I thrive
I love to go hiking in the Columbia Gorge year round, grow vegetables in the summer, and travel to visit family and friends whenever possible. Connecting with friends, attending church, listening to podcasts, and learning new things are life giving for me. I have a passion for taking care of our environment and helping out overseas.
takes time with me. she explains things and listen to my questions. she never tries to force me to accept her opinions and respects mine

When asked what I could take for my arthritis for pain was told I needed to make another appointment for this discussion to talk about options I was not happy as I was there she could have spent a few minutes with me as to what I could do to help it instead of me spending more time and money on a different appointment which is hard for me as my husband and I are down a car and I have to rely on others to take me which is not always convenient for them. I know I was there to talk about my diabetes but I felt that talking about a different topic was too much to ask for her to do . I was disappointing in not getting answers for my pain I am going t think twice about going to see her again

I had a problem with privacy with a different doctor, but we have now worked that out, but with Doctor Henderson that has never been a problem. // I couldn't have a more wonderful doctor than Doctor Henderson. I have had some great Doctors and they always leave. Please keep this one. // Like I already said she is wonderful, kind, and very good at what she does. I am grateful to have gotten this woman.

I actually have recommended this provider to someone else. I am so pleased with her that I filled out a yellow gratitude card and gave it to Membership Services. She is efficient, thorough, very pleasant to interact with, doesn't spend excessive time with me, but is very responsive to any comments or questions I have. I was called in 10 minutes early for my appointment, and I think that may be related to her skillful use of time with patients. // I could not be more pleased with Dr. Amber Henderson. She has been so thorough in addressing my concerns......contacting other specialists and calling me back, ordering lab tests to further diagnose problems. She seems genuinely interested in making me as healthy as possible!
