Accepting new patients

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

I’m Josha Woodward, a fellowship-trained neurological surgeon specializing in minimally invasive and endoscopic spine surgery. I also have experience in the resection of cranial and peripheral nerve disorders.

I treat conditions such as cervical, thoracic, and lumbar degenerative spine disease, spinal tumors, brain tumors, and peripheral nerve disorders. My treatments include minimally invasive spine surgery, endoscopic spine surgery, and brain tumor resection.

I approach patients and their healthcare as if they were my own family members, aiming to provide each person with the individualized care they deserve in their time of need. I find deep satisfaction in helping people regain their lives, restoring their ability to enjoy the world around them.

Outside of work, I’m an avid fisherman and love taking advantage of the wealth of outdoor activities that Oregon offers.

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.
