No ratings to display.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.

About me

Elly is a native of Portland, Oregon. She graduated from Reed College in 2004, with her senior thesis focused on the manganese transport regulator, MntR, from Bacillus subtilis. She received her MD from the University of Illinois College of Medicine in 2005 and completed residency in Internal Medicine and fellowship in Pulmonary & Critical Care at OHSU. Elly was appointed to the Pulmonary and Critical Care Division’s T32 training grant during her fellowship, allowing her to pursue basic science research. She joined the Lewinsohn Lab in 2014 where she studied endosomal trafficking proteins and how they affect MR1-dependent presentation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Elly joined the faculty at OHSU in 2016 and in 2017, she won the Rising Star Award for the PI-TB Assembly (formerly MTPI) of the American Thoracic Society. She joined the Portland VA Health Care System in 2018 where she works as a Pulmonary & Critical Care physician. In 2020, Elly received an NIH R21 and then an NIH K08 to continue her research on MR1. Her clinical interests include non-CF bronchiectasis and nontuberculous mycobacterial infections.
