Finding specialized, high-level surgical care often requires looking beyond your immediate neighborhood to ensure you are receiving the best treatment available. For residents of Lake Oswego seeking premier oral and maxillofacial care, Head & Neck Surgical Associates (HNSA) is the region’s leading destination. Located just a short drive north in the historic Northwest District of Portland, our practice is uniquely staffed by dual-degreed, board-certified physicians trained in both medicine and dentistry.

Whether you require routine wisdom tooth extraction, complex reconstructive jaw surgery, or dental implants, our team provides hospital-grade expertise in a private practice setting. We understand that patients in Lake Oswego value quality, precision, and comfort, which is why we have designed our clinic to offer a seamless patient experience from consultation to recovery.

Conveniently Located for Lake Oswego Residents

Head & Neck Surgical Associates is located at 1849 NW Kearney St # 300, Portland, OR 97209. While we are situated in the heart of Portland, our location is highly accessible for patients coming from Lake Oswego, West Linn, and the surrounding southern suburbs.

Directions and Transportation

Traveling from Lake Oswego to our office typically takes 15 to 25 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. We are located in the vibrant Northwest District (often referred to as Nob Hill or the Alphabet District), just off I-405.

  • Via I-5 North: Take I-5 North toward Portland. Merge onto I-405 North and take Exit 2B (Everett St). This route delivers you directly into the NW Portland grid, just blocks from our office.
  • Via Highway 43 (Macadam Ave): For a more scenic route that avoids the Terwilliger curves, take State Street (Hwy 43) north along the Willamette River. Continue onto SW Macadam Ave, merge onto I-405 North, and exit at Everett St.

Stress-Free Parking: One of the biggest challenges of visiting medical providers in the city is parking. HNSA has solved this problem. We provide a large, complimentary private parking lot for our patients. This includes designated priority bays for post-operative pickup, ensuring that when your surgery is complete, your transition to the car and back home to Lake Oswego is smooth and hassle-free.

Comprehensive Services for Lake Oswego Patients

At Head & Neck Surgical Associates, our scope of practice is broader than a standard dental office. Our surgeons possess the medical and dental training necessary to handle complex craniofacial issues, trauma, and cosmetic concerns.

Dental Implants and Bone Grafting

If you are missing teeth, dental implants offer the most natural and durable solution. Our surgeons use advanced 3D imaging to plan the precise placement of implants. For patients who have experienced bone loss, we specialize in bone grafting and soft tissue surgery to build a solid foundation for your restoration.

Wisdom Teeth Removal

Wisdom teeth extraction is a rite of passage for many young adults, but it can also be necessary later in life. We prioritize patient comfort and safety, offering various levels of sedation and general anesthesia administered by highly trained professionals. We work efficiently to minimize recovery time so you can get back to your daily life in Lake Oswego.

Corrective Jaw Surgery (Orthognathic Surgery)

Misalignment of the jaws can cause difficulty chewing, speech issues, and chronic pain. As a leader in corrective jaw surgery, our team uses virtual surgical planning (VSP) to correct overbites, underbites, and facial asymmetry. This procedure often goes hand-in-hand with orthodontic treatment to achieve perfect functional and aesthetic harmony.

Head and Neck Oncology

Through our partnerships with the Providence Oral, Head and Neck Cancer Clinic and the Legacy Good Samaritan Cancer Center, we offer world-class care for benign and malignant tumors. Our team includes specialists in head and neck oncology and microvascular reconstruction, dedicated to not just curing cancer but restoring quality of life.

Facial Trauma and Reconstruction

Accidents happen. Whether due to sports injuries, falls, or vehicle accidents, facial trauma requires specialized attention to minimize scarring and restore function. Our surgeons are on call at the region’s Level 1 Trauma Centers and run a dedicated Trauma Clinic to manage acute facial injuries for patients transferred from all over Oregon.
