The Patient Rating score is an average of all responses to physician related questions on our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score. Comments also are gathered from this Patient Satisfaction Survey.

I am originally from a small town in Vermont near Lake Champlain and the Green Mountains. I went to college in Maine where I studied biology and minored in anthropology. I took two years away from school to coordinate clinical research in Boston, Massachusetts before returning to University of Vermont for medical school. I moved to Portland, Oregon for residency in Internal Medicine at Oregon Health & Science University and I am delighted to stay in town with Kaiser Permanente.
About my practice
When I imagined myself as a physician, it was always in primary care. I enjoy the challenge of managing a broad range of medical conditions, opportunities for preventing disease, and the reality of life outside of the hospital. I look forward to long-lasting relationships based on teamwork and trust. I have a special interest in health care systems and quality improvement.
How I thrive
I believe that in order to take excellent care of other people, I must also take care of myself. I stay healthy by running, cycling, hiking, swimming, and skiing. I thrive by staying active, cooking and eating good food, making time for myself, and spending time with family and friends.
*Dr. Hayden seemed very nice. She went over all my medical problems and discussed them with me. This was my first time seeing her.

Dr. Hayden was superb in that she was, as usual, very friendly, polite and patient in responding to my several questions. She has a great smile which seems to be very sincere, and puts the patient at ease. Dr. H. introduced me to a KP diagnostic/ therapeutic option I was not aware of for my recurrent back pain which recently flared -- that is the Acute Back Pain Clinic, which I subsequently utilized with satisfaction. Dr. Hayden efficiently entered info from our conversation into the EMR while maintaining good eye/ conversational contact with me. SO, I was very satisfied/ happy with this PCP appt, and with Dr. Hayden.
