I had what I can't quite confidently call the worlds strangest doctors appointment with Dr V. It…read morewas my second visit to this pain management practice. I saw the nurse practitioner the first visit, who I did like. She ordered some x-rays. and was very empathetic. I was under the impression that this was a follow up with the doctor, who would proceed further with the course of action I had talked about (at length) in my hour visit the week prior. Boy was I wrong! This doctor entered the room early, while the nurse was still taking my vitals. He introduced his intern/ med student, by insulting her school in an awkward joke. Then he asked what I was "in there for today." He very obviously handn't even looked at my chart. But before I was able to answer fully, he launched into a loud aggravated tirade about how, "Obama ruined his ability to do his job by requiring evidence based medical treatment." He ended the lecture by staring at me and demanding that I agree with him. I tried to redirect by saying I agreed that insurance companies make it very difficult to get procedures and tests approved. Then after a short couple sentences related to the x-rays, he asked me "so where do you think your neuropathy comes from." I said, "I think it's a result of my lupus." He belly laughs," Oh you're one of the lucky whites with an autoimmune disorder." aren't you lucky! Then he started on a history lesson about the black plague in Europe, which explained why "Whites get auto immune illnesses more than THE Blacks." and How it actually comes from our superiority and adaptability through natural selection and the plague. Again he stars at me like some maniacal college professor and asks, "how did the plague travel from the east to the west? (pause) Go on! take a guess! try!" I said, "trade routs." "YES! good job!" then another few minutes of The blacks the whites and the asians.... a little cursing. Then he says," and why did whites travel so much? because we're more curious than the blacks. and because of this we're more prone to addiction. especially heroin. (looking me dead in the eye) Don't ever try heroin. Me, "ok." At this point I wanted to ask, "BUT are you on it now? Maybe they need to Pee test you." (They are very big on pee testing everyone.) He asks his intern to go see if they can find the MRI of my back. They couldn't find it. So it's another round about Obama and how "in the good old days he could just give me a shot in my back based on where the pain is in relation to his nerve chart, but now we need EVIDENCE based medicine. so there's nothing he can do today. But they'll try again to get the MRI, or maybe order a new one." and maybe they'll focus on my knee pain because that's easier, but we'll need an x-ray for that. and.... that's it. That's what my $40 copay and the hour drive to olympia got me today. I left just gobsmacked - what just happened? I'm still in disbelief. And he talked sooo fast! It was absolutely insane.

I took my wife there today and Dr Vogelgesang walked into the room and the first words out of his…read moremouth were comments about the scar on my wife's chest - from a wound vac from her 3-way bypass surgery 5 years ago. The conversation went south from there. He was rude disrespectful and no other way to put it he was a complete A__ Hole! We were both in shock as to how rude this clown was. When he heard that my wife did not like opioids, he then asked what she expected him to do for her? We have never been to a pain management center and did not know what to expect. It appears this Quack is only interested in pushing narcotics. My wife and I were in shock from the lack of professionalism from Dr Vogelgesang. Had the appointment lasted any longer this A__Hole would have been picking himself off the ground.

If you are struggling with anything, you owe it to yourself to at least speak with her once.

Without all the details, I was stunned by the immediate defensive attitude of the office manager when I inquired as to why I was told my appointment was at 6:45 am (I arrived early as you do for a 1st visit), when in fact they won't open the doors until 6:45 am, so I waited in my car for 30 minutes. "Just wait in your car with the motor running." and "It's not even cold today." It was 36 degrees. I was also told I would have my annual physical (the whole reason I made the appointment) before I came in, but when I got there I was told I'd have to come back for that, that this was just a meet and greet. I can't comment on the doctors as I never saw them. I wasn't going to stay after being treated this way. Hard to describe in words how hostile they reacted to my asking questions about the offices communication. Guess they aren't used to being called out on their condescending behavior.

Dr. Robin Moore saved my life many years ago... by diagnosing something that went undetected, and…read moreun-diagnosed by many physicians before her. To summarize, in 1999 I was a 15 year old high school athlete. One day playing soccer, my vision disappeared for 5-10 minutes. This became a routine thing every 2-3 days, without any given trigger or correlation. I went to my family practice doctor, allergist, neurologist, ophthalmologist, and finally a neurosurgeon (too see if it was related to an eye issue I was born with). I was given many answers of what it "could" be.... Over a 2-3 year period, I tried 5-6 different medications, all with limited efficacy, and a plethora of side effects. Eventually I learned to deal with the issue, as the medications weren't worth the high cost, or side effects. Life was rough, but manageable (going blind every 2-3 days without warning). After a single visit with Dr. Robin Moore in 2004, she was able to help identify what was causing my visual issue. And more importantly, what was triggering the issue. I was able to change my habits, change my diet, and the issue has all but dissipated since. I have not seen Dr. Robin Moore since my single 2004 visit (I moved to LA after graduating UW), but I will soon visit her, to thank her. That one visit changed my life. I've told my story many times. I'm still very much in debt to her! And very much appreciate her help!

1 star poor customer service experience…read more I arrived at Wentworth Family Therapy without an appointment hoping to speak with someone about scheduling a visit since their website says they are accepting new patients. I expected at least a brief conversation or some guidance. When I arrived it was confusing because there are two buildings. Inside the waiting area was small with a few people coming and going. Behind the door labeled for staff I could hear people talking casually not working with clients while I sat waiting. The sign said to take a seat and wait for the receptionist which I did. No one acknowledged me for nearly half an hour. When someone finally came out her attitude felt cold and unempathetic. After waiting so long I was told they had a waiting list for VA veterans using TriWest but I could be seen sooner if I paid out of pocket. That left a bad taste in my mouth. To be clear my review is not about the therapists' professional abilities because I never made it that far. This is about my first impression and the lack of basic customer service. When a place advertises they are accepting new patients the least they can do is treat walk-ins with respect and kindness. I hope others have a better experience but mine left me disappointed and questioning the professionalism of the practice. Good therapists are hard to find and this experience did not inspire confidence.

I spent over a year trying to get Dr. Dybro to take seriously my complaints of menstrual irregularity with extreme pain during menstruation. I was in my 30s, young for perimenopause. I thought I might have endometriosis. She thought I had PCOS, which test results did not support. She stood by her diagnosis because she discriminated against my body type--I have always had visceral body fat, as do most people in my family. It's our genetics. She couldn't see past that and was counseling me to develop an eating disorder: things she actually told me: "Maybe you should stop eating fruit" when I told her I was already eating a low-glycemic diet, and "It's pretty normal for women your age to be in pain." Eventually I prevailed and got an ultrasound. It showed that I had endometrial cancer. I needed emergency surgery, but I luckily caught it before it had spread to other organs. I can't even imagine what would have happened if I hadn't kept fighting for appropriate care. I started going to this clinic because I heard they were queer friendly. That may be, but they need to seriously hold Dr. Dybro accountable for rampant fatphobia (I was a size 14 at the time of treatment, I can't even imagine how larger people were treated). No one else should live with excruciating pain that turns out to be cancer for over a year because she thinks they're just eating too much fruit and their pain is "normal."

I honestly couldn't wait as I was dealing with the loss of my son and needed help badly, I just needed someone who could help me. Here we are over six months into my therapy and so much has changed. When I originally came in I had a list of things that I felt I needed addressed, and then we finished the first target of therapy. Something happened that I wasn't expecting. So many layers of my onion brain were slowly being peeled back and unfolding. I could not have made it this far without the help of my therapist James Truesdell. He has a soft, patient tone that is so comforting and easy during your healing process. He made me feel safe every time and was always concerned about my overall well being. I would see him time and time again, highly recommend.

I get that no one wants to be left swinging in the breeze without payment but, this has bothered me every time it's come up. I've elected to pay cash with this business and they don't seem to have an immediate problem with that but, here it comes.... when they call to say your bill come to "insert amount here" and can we please have a card number to get it taken care of. I decline and say I'll bring cash over. then I get asked, "will that be today or at your next appointment?" and followed up with I'll add a note to your account. also, my insurance tends to take a few weeks to get the bill through the system and let the provider know what they can charge. this place has collected from me before that process has been completed. all of this just seems odd to me. if it weren't for the incredible interactions with my service provider I'd be going elsewhere because of the billing.
