About Margaret J. Black
Before she went to medical school, Dr. Margaret Black worked as a doula; this exciting work sparked a passion for caring for patients during life’s big moments. Board-certified in family medicine with a concentration in obstetrics, Dr. Black welcomes patients of all ages and genders. "I especially enjoy pregnancy care, women's health, and pediatrics, including adolescent medicine," Dr. Black says. As a Suboxone (buprenorphine) prescriber, she also extends her skill and compassion to patients working through addiction and substance abuse.
In her practice today, Dr. Black's empathy informs her philosophy of care. She explains, "I love hearing about my patients' lives and backgrounds, and exploring how that influences how they experience living in their bodies, and what that means for their health goals." Dr. Black hopes to empower patients through active listening; she also aims to ensure they feel safe and free of judgment.
Dr. Black earned a bachelor's degree in political science from Vassar College and completed her medical degree at Tulane University. She continued to the University of New Mexico for her residency training.
While growing up, Dr. Black’s family made many international moves, so she feels like a citizen of the world. "I'm happy to be putting down some solid roots in Portland," she says.

Dr. Black is the best doctor I have ever had

Doctor Black is absolutely the best physician one could have, she is sensitive, kind and brilliant. She has all necessary information at her fingertips. She is endlessly supportive and honest and positive. With, last but not least, a great sense of humor. If I could rate her at a 15 on the chart, I would. Providence, and all her patients, are very very lucky to have her. Me too!!! <3

I love my doctor so much and one of my biggest healthcare worries is that she'll leave or retire or my insurance will change. Every person I interact with at the office seems kind, friendly, and helpful, but not in a customer service robot kind of way. Dr. Black will sit down with you, look you in your eyes, and ask what else you want to talk about and it's so refreshing from a healthcare provider. Also they are somehow never running late!! They deserve a pizza party!
