About me

Dr. Brenna Yard specializes in treating infants and children who need to stay in the hospital because of illness or injury. She also cares for full-term and preterm babies in the nursery or the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Dr. Yard understands that having a sick or hurting child is incredibly stressful for parents and caretakers. She works to ensure that she is caring for the entire family as well as her patient. She is especially passionate about car seats and bicycle safety.

Dr. Yard grew up in the area, and recently moved back with her husband and three kids to be closer to extended family. She enjoys exploring the area with her family and finding new delights and old favorites.

Insurance

Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher. Visit the billing and insurance section of our site for more information.
