Travis for a health issue is like going back in time when the 'old school' ethics of medicine were practice

I find myself raving about Dr. Cahn and his staff on a daily basis…read more Last week I had an appointment for annual fasting blood work only, feeling pretty crappy. Dr. Cahn saw me sitting in the waiting room and insisted I sit with him. In fact, I found myself spewing all that was going - for over 45 mins. I left that day with some referrals, potential answers, a link to an article and a feeling that I may just figure out what is going on. Dr Cahn's priority is his patients. He's got the kind of heart that you can only hope for in a family doc. And his PA and NP - the same. Both are incredible. His staff, family, even Lucy (the amazingly gentle and therapeutic office golden doodle) make an appt with him a welcomed visit to get better. I couldn't say enough about the best doctor I've ever had.

I switched to Dr. Cahn after my family physician of 25 years couldn't keep his moral judgments off…read moreof my personal decisions. Dr. Cahn has been exactly what the other reviewers say: non-judgmental, kind, welcoming... And I add to that: He is easy to talk with; he listens and is interested to hear about and consider what I, as a patient, feel would work for me and my body. His PA is just as wonderful about listening and talking about options as well. This office provides completely respectful and professional care. Dr. Cahn's office staff is also friendly, helpful and genuine. I am overjoyed that such a wonderful family doctor works six blocks away from me. PS: The article about him in Seattle Met is pretty awesome. http://www.seattlemet.com/health-and-fitness/articles/health-primary-care-0809/ Five outta five. (And, I'd give ten.)

It's been YEARS since my last physical. I tend to procrastinate when it comes to being told the…read moregood/bad news about my health. After searching through the first page of my "in network" providers, I quickly got tired at the prospect of sifting through 50 more pages. So, I did what any reasonable person would do when it comes to finding a doc...I closed my eyes, threw a dart and picked a name. On a serious note, Dr. Friedmann was voted best doc in 2002, so I figured like wine, you can only get better with age. I went in, he did his thing, and I walked out. Overall, a pretty painless experience (aside from the blood draw). He's a nice, warm, fuzzy guy. Two thumbs up.

I recently saw Dr. Friedmann at the Polyclinic in Ballard. I had been having severe intermittent…read moreleg pain that I couldn't relieve with any amount of Aleve, ice, heat, rest, etc. It was the strangest thing and I was hesitant to see a doctor because I could barely even describe the discomfort I was having and wasn't sure what help I would be able to get. Lucky me, I ended up getting an appointment with Dr. Friedmann. He took so much time and care to try to understand the issue I was having despite my inability to articulate it. He made sure to understand my overall health, activity levels, recent travels and all of the other outside factors that might be causing my pain. I have recently felt so rushed by all of the doctors I've seen but Dr. Friedmann made me feel like I was his only patient. While we never got to the root cause of my pain, he made sure to rule out any possibly dangerous causes and provided me with a prescription and treatment plans to try. Then the most amazing thing happened...I got an unsolicited phone call from him 2 days after my appointment to see how I was doing!!! I'm feeling much better now thanks to Dr. Friedmann. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in search of a smart, thoughtful and genuinely caring doctor.

Truly the best doctor I've been to! I literally left the clinic and immediately texted my family to…read moretell them about how happy I was to have finally found a doctor I like. The clinic is small, cozy, and full of plants and cool vintage decor. The exam rooms themselves have a cozy old school vibe as well. The woman at the front desk (whose name I unfortunately didn't catch) was so friendly and gave me a cold bottle of water while I waited; she also talked me thru insurance information so that I'd fully understand my copay and everything. Dr. Bliss had a very calming and kind demeanor, he seems like a person who genuinely enjoys caring for people. Going to the doctor can be a stressful experience, but Dr. Bliss and his partner made it a relaxing one. I'd genuinely look forward to going back! To top it all off, they let me take a couple plants home for free from the waiting room. The best!

I can't say enough good things about Bliss Medical! I had driven past the clinic many times prior…read moreto switching primary care and was always intrigued by the pretty outdoor murals and the jungle of plants in the windows. As soon as I walked into the waiting area, I knew I was in for a positive experience. There has been so much attention to detail put into making the space beyond beautiful and welcoming. The waiting area is such a feast for the eyes that it almost makes me sad that there is never a wait to see the doctor! I could happily spend my whole day in there - especially since Laura is so darn friendly and such a warm and lovely conversationalist! Dr. Bliss is equally amicable. He truly takes time to get to know you, listen to all your concerns, and ensure you feel heard. I'm the kind of person who is skittish around doctors due to having been shamed by them in the past for different issues like weight or lifestyle choices. Dr. Bliss approaches patients in a way that is very affirming and positive and I felt totally at ease expressing all my concerns to him. He gave me all the information I needed without any judgement. I had such a great experience here that I immediately established care for my 14yo here too. My kiddo has a lot of anxiety about going to the doctor but he pretty much echoed all the sentiments I've already stated in this review. After his appointment, he talked a lot about how nice Dr. Bliss was and I noticed he wrote "You guys are awesome!" on his exit slip. That's pretty high praise from a kid who allegedly hates going to the doctor! It's so rare to find compassionate country doctor vibes from a clinic inside the city. I will definitely be recommending Dr. Bliss to all my friends!

Dr. Grote is a true gem! My whole family saw him when we lived in Seattle, and now that we live in…read moreVancouver, we're seriously missing him. He's warm, patient, thorough, and always made us feel like he had plenty of time to discuss our various issues. He treated us respectfully, even when our views didn't completely align, and I never felt like he would push a course of treatment on us that we didn't want. The specialists he referred us to were great as well, from chiropractor to oncologist. Dr. Grote takes a holistic approach toward health and doesn't seem over-eager to prescribe medications, as some doctors do. For example, when my daughter had a mild ear infection that wasn't bothering her, he recommended that we wait and see and didn't suggest antibiotics right off. The ear infection was soon gone without having caused my daughter any distress. He is also familiar with herbs and prescribed some to us that were quite helpful. And to top it off, my preschooler was comfortable with him, which at the time, was really saying something! Now if only I could find a doctor like him in Vancouver . . .

Dr. Grote is a really sweet, caring man, and he did some good things for my husband and I for which…read moreI commend him, but he also failed us in some ways we found unacceptable. We saw him for two years for a number of issues, and finally we both had complaints serious enough that we left. Among them a painful misdiagnosis (and an easy one -- another doctor diagnosed it correctly from a verbal description); an Rx for an expensive drug when a cheap generic was available; and when I complained that the office staff wasn't treating me well, he scolded me rather than ask what they could do better, at a time when he knew I was in deep grief from the loss of a loved one. The true test of a doctor and his office staff is not how he treats you when everything is good, when you are feeling great, and when you can easily stand to be put on hold for five or more minutes at a time, but when things are hard, when you're in pain, and when you're suffering a loss. Dr. Grote, if you read this, know that I liked you personally, and it wasn't just the one thing, but a collection of problems, including the misdiagnosis which caused one of us months of pain. I wish you the best and I hope you seriously consider your staff issues. And, of course, if you had wanted to know the details of why we left, you could have asked. You didn't. Good luck.

Be advised: you're going to get unexpected charges. I was…read moreexplicitly advised by their customer service liaison, Kim, that if I want to avoid surprise billing in the future, I should route prescription refills through the pharmacy and essentially avoid interacting with my provider. This was especially troubling given that I was not prescribed refills sufficient to last the year. This advice came only after I received an unexpected bill following a preventive/wellness visit. During the appointment, I briefly mentioned ongoing conditions as part of my medical history and asked routine questions about prescriptions I already take. At no point was I told that reviewing my medical history would convert my preventive visit into a separately billable office visit. I was ultimately charged for both a preventive new-patient visit and an additional established-patient visit for the same appointment. When I contacted billing, I was repeatedly told the coding was "accurate," and that it did not matter that I was never informed or given the opportunity to consent to a separate visit. I was also told that preventive visits are essentially "cookie-cutter," and that discussing things like labs or existing conditions is not covered. I was never informed during the visit that mentioning my health needs would result in extra charges, nor was I given the option to schedule a separate appointment. This practice shows little regard for informed consent or care beyond a checkbox wellness exam. Patients should not have to guess what will trigger unexpected costs--or be told to limit communication with their provider to avoid being billed. Transparency matters in healthcare, and I hope this practice significantly improves how it communicates billing expectations so patients can make informed decisions.

Just not a good experience. Medical equipment and techniques are dated and incorrect (blood…read morepressure measured with stethoscope and manual interpretation ... in 2025). My vital health measurements were incorrectly transcribed, leading to wrong health data being added to my file. Doctor wanted to use an iPad with an AI note-taking "app" which is an insult to patient confidentiality and his own profession. An overall lack of interest, empathy and excitement about health and the patient in front of them is simply disappointing.

Me: I slowly spell my name, repeating 3 times. (She butchers it even after I spell it in detail). Receptionist: So this is for a physical for work? Me: No. This is an appointment to establish patient care. Receptionist: So you said you are in a wheelchair? Seriously? This initial phone call was so disturbing and reckless on the receptionist's part, I chose not to see this doctor. There is something seriously wrong with someone who cannot listen early on and hear simple information for an intake. Who the heck communicates like this?

Where the doctor explains his diagnosis and asks if you have any questions? The only difference between those silver screen doctors and Dr. G is that I don't think he will do house calls but I wouldn't be surprised if he did. His practice doesn't have the bling of a downtown office. What he does have is that old time care. He takes the time to visit with you and ask the questions that need to be asked in order to diagnose what is wrong. Both he and the P.A., Vicky, spend more time with you than you think they ever would. Does your doctor keep you waiting and then rush you out the door? Give Dr. Gustafson or Vicky a try. You will feel like you came out of a Norman Rockwell painting.
