She has removed unnecessary meds and prescribed one that made a big difference in my cholesterol. She will run comprehensive blood panels annually that are very helpful in navigating changes that need to be made for better health. Her office staff is very efficient as well. I highly recommend Active Family and Jennifer Fletcher!

Flat out told me that she "didn't have time" when I asked about a health question that I had scheduled to discuss when I made the appointment.

My first and only appointment with Ms Hall was for an annual exam. She did absolutely nothing…read moreduring the exam. Did not listen to my breathing/lungs or heart. I had to ask for the basic blood test. She did not order a mammogram, colon or bone density test. I complained of my ear plugging and she did not even look at it. I had injured my arm and found out later that she made no notes of it and wanted me to come back in merely to order an x-ray for it. It would be impossible to see what was wrong with a probable Deltoid muscle tear without an x-ray or MRI so why she refused to order one, I do not know. I guess just to get money for another useless visit. I told Whitney that I was depressed after losing my grown daughter w/young children to cancer. She immediately turned the conversation to all about her own problems without addressing any possibilities that might help me to better cope. After telling the staff manager, Margaret, that I had been told via text I would be switched to an actual doctor after reporting the poor service from Whitney, she said that they do not text and it must've been a robo response. I then sent proof with copies of the actual text messaging that I had an ongoing conversation with someone that was going to assign me to an actual doctor, which never happened. Margaret never acknowledged, apologized or helped in any way. Northwest Family Medicine is a terrible place and I would advise any and all to stay clear! Even the offices did not feel that crispy clean like one would expect from a good medical facility.

Really, ZERO stars is more appropriate. I am a retired advanced-practice nurse, recently moved to…read morethe Spokane area. I called to establish care at Spokane Internal Medicine. It took them 5 days to call me back, and the first question was what insurance I have (I have full coverage so I advanced to question 2). The second was whether I have ever been in a pain management program (code words- "are you a drug seeker?"). I do not take any pain meds, so on to #3. This one floored me: "Do you have fibromyalgia?" to which I said, yes, I had been diagnosed with it many years ago. The scheduler instantly read from her script: "Unfortunately you are not in our scope of practice and we can't see you." Wait, what? I told her I wasn't seeking care for fibromyalgia, and would see a rheumatologist if ever I needed medical management for FMS, I was seeking a primary care provider, but her discriminatory script had no other response than to say I was not in their scope of practice and they wouldn't see me. That's like saying my cardiac condition isn't in their scope of practice and they won't see me. It makes no sense- if a doctor feels a conditon is outside their scope of practice, they refer a patient to a specialist for that condition. It's standard practice, so something is fishy here. Apparently, SIM has decided a patient with fibromyalgia syndrome (or chronic pain- the question I passed) fits some hidden profile and they are using these questions to discriminate. I wonder what the next questions would have been. In addition, the SIM doctors are sadly outdated in making their value judgements about patients with fibromyalgia or chronic pain conditions, which speaks volumes about how antiquated SIM medical care is. These providers would do well to consult the Arthritis Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, or the Centers for Disease Control, maybe even go to a conference to update their knowledge base. There is a wealth of information and research about fibromyalgia syndrome and the neuropathology of chronic pain disorders. Perhaps if they knew more, they would feel comfortable accepting patients with these conditions into their practice. I'm afraid, though, that the real issues aren't the disorders, but the use of the diagnoses to discriminate. Shameful. Avoid this place if you want a doctor who cares.

She was quick and deliberate with a plan of action for treatment. It was clear that she has the knowledge and experience to know what to do.

She asked several times if I had any questions or concerns. Altogether a great visit. Looking forward to my next appointment with her.
