Absolutely, hands down, the best surgeon and team! I had emergency surgery on 3/22/24. I was…read moreassigned Dr Clive via the ER department. Having had a previous catastrophic surgery 20 yrs ago by another surgeon, I was frightened. I've been a nurse for 34+ years. The moment he walked in, explained the procedure and I advised him I could not have laparoscopic surgery due to extensive adhesions, he heard me and opted to do the laparotomy surgery. I saw his PA who assisted in surgery & his colleagues, had follow up visits in his office. I cannot say enough at how incredible EVERYONE was. Professional, informative, listened to my concerns and eased my anxiety and my recovery was great. I hope to never need him again but if I, or anyone I know needs surgery, I will choose him. I've already recommended him to my husband's co-worker. Thank you, Dr Clive and team! Truly grateful for you and your team!

Visit #1: I had accompanied my Mom to her mammogram at an adjacent building. Parking was well marked, main reception check-in straight forward, and imaging clinic was fast. Her physician's office received the results promptly. Visit #2: My Mom was transported by ambulance to the ER. Me & The Homie got on the first available ferry from Edmonds & drove fast from Kingston to Silverdale. Again, clear signage for appropriate parking. Checking in required proof of identity with security to obtain an official name to gain access to the ER rooms. Staff from Security, Patient Services, CT scan tech, lab staff, ER physician & nurse all had clear communication. Visit #3: My Mom was admitted and transferred from the ER to another floor, 3South. Good signage and room info regarding assigned staff. Attending physician was clear with findings and desired outcome. Again, staff who dealt with labs, vitals, meals, and keeping patients clean & well looked after were excellent. Visit #4: Discharge day which also included visits from other specialists. Very thorough to be all in agreement and documentation provided before allowing my Mom to go home. My Mom is fortunate to have comprehensive insurance coverage which allowed her to receive great care and treatment from St Michael's, a member of the Virginia Mason Franciscan Health medical network. Shout outs to the ER nurse, Nurse Chris and Nurse Jackson for amazing care. Exceptional kind and compassionate care from Charlene, CNA. Thank you Charlene!

St Mikes has gotten a bad rap. I've always felt the staff and facilities are top notch and they…read morekeep growing . Though sad that our older, much smaller local Harrison Hospital is no more, I understand there were economic reasons. . What we do have is a very modern, very gorgeous, and always growing medical facility! And I've recently learned there is a strong and binding mandate for non-religious affiliation despite the name. I love that my oncologist moved from a smaller, much older independent location in Poulsbo to a fully functional Oncology Center. Dr Sirisha Jain saved my husbands life diagnosing a one in a million auto-immune blood disease (and treated me the following year) and now she has the facilities and colleagues to work miracles on so many others! The realities of the understaffed, undersized ER and other departments Covid/post-covid have been and are being addressed with stable staffing replacing traveling nurses, the opening of urgent/emergency satellite locations and alternatives, and the development of residency and other training programs which are growing highly capable, local talent choosing to stay in our community . It was bad, and so was COVID; hopefully they'll be better prepared for the next major stress testing both by heart patients and our community as a whole! I had a 95 year old friend fall and shatter his hip. Surgery was attempted but there was not much that could have been done and he passed 2 weeks later. During those weeks, the care he received was world class! After a short stint on the orthopedic floor, he was transferred to the top for hospice. From the care and attention he and we received to the spacious, ultra modern suite with views of the water and mountains beyond, I couldn't have asked for a better way to spend the last days of his life together. The medical wings with doctor offices, oncology, labs, imaging, plus the heliport if life-saving measures beyond what's available is needed, I feel very secure that the needs of the young as well as our aging population will be met from now and into the future. When I awoke confused after surgery performed in the last year at the old Bremerton location, I looked around, tried to get dressed to leave, and was questioned by a nurse who asked me where I thought I was. I said " Mexico?", think I must have been in a different country try with crumbling medical facilities! I've since learned that you can find high class care in many parts of Mexico, but point is you'd never be confused in our beautiful new building. Is it perfect? NO! But IMO, it's a shiny gem in our community.

After 15 minutes standing waiting to be finally called back. I mentioned out loud that if as a consultant I was 15 minutes late to a client I would be fired. Thier response was "That's Life".

To the men considering a vasectomy here, I want to share my personal experience so you can make an…read moreinformed decision. 1. I was awake for the entire procedure, which is standard for a vasectomy. In my case, the local anesthetic did not seem to provide equal coverage on both sides. I experienced significant discomfort at one point during the procedure. I would encourage anyone considering this to have a detailed conversation with their surgeon beforehand about pain management expectations. 2. An observer was present in the operating room during my procedure. I was not informed of this before arriving for surgery, and consent was requested after I was already on the operating table and prepared for the procedure. In my personal opinion, I felt this could have been handled better, and I would have preferred the opportunity to make that decision in advance. I am not discouraging anyone from seeking care here, but I hope sharing my experience helps others know what questions to ask beforehand.

Kitsap Physical Therapy in East Bremerton helped me with a work related injury involving my left…read moreelbow. I had torn ligaments in it that required surgery for which I had replaced with donor tissue in July 2025. I was impressed with their professionalism and friendly demeanor that made the process to relearn the use of my elbow calm and comfortable. I recently completed my time in their clinic this October with their seal of approval lol. I am now on my way to the next phase of my recovery on getting used to lifting weighted things on my own with current work limitations in place (until possibly December 2025 or later depending on my doctors approval). I can pretty much bend elbow normally as of Oct. 2025 so that's a goal met, and I can pick light weight things up without any major discomfort, but like with anything, it will take time and patience to continue strengthening my elbow before moving on to heavier, more physically demanding things I was able to do before. I want to thank everyone there who helped me out. You all helped provide that extra positive energy in the healing process. I will miss working with you all. I highly recommend to anyone who needs Physical therapy in their life to seek this place out.

The faces you get before you even walk through the front door were enough to make me want to turn around and find somewhere else. It's no longer a lack of caring for those you offer services to but the blatant disgust in their face as if they couldn't stand your presence that they need to fix. They scream "I'm entitled and Idgaf" before you talk to them, but then after you're left with a feeling of "there's no way I'm going to be taken care of here". I understand hiring is hard these days, but please for the love of god put someone at your front desk that doesn't ruin your day just by how they look at you. I'd close my office before I had someone like that a paycheck. Find care somewhere else if you want all around good care. There are plenty of offices near by that will provide similar quality care with NONE of the problems they'll give you.

A little smile goes a long way or pretend to be friendly. They seemed to be preoccupied with some data entry or other office related work. That's fine, but if you don't have the right front desk attitude, go to the back room and have other people more suited for the front. You have patients (seniors and youth) going in for real surgeries and these front desk women hate their lives so much they can't try to build a little rapport to help their clientele that's paying their salaries. A little effort goes a long way to build a safe environment for those that look for dental services. I Can't wait to finish our time there and never return.
