Noted in chart I could tandem walk when I could NOT DO IT! No problem doc, falsifying records? No big deal! Wow! All in 15-minutes, I might add. I pulled on the God ropes as my retired RN Mom would say, by pushing back on his assessment and demanding an updated thoracic MRI. Go figure: Intraosseus tumors now added to scoliosis, ventral canal indentations and several bulging discs. But hey, what good could a holistic view of the spine be in diagnosing/identifying treatment plan that is not a handful of pills thrown at me? Avoid this place!

Be prepared with any questions written down so you can make the most out of your appointment. He has been on time for all our appointments. Eventually my son did have a tonsillectomy this month. So far my son is healing very well. Dr. Rone was compassionate and explained exactly what would happen the day of surgery as well as the recovery period. He spoke to my son, not just me and my husband, making him feel valued. His staff were always helpful and friendly helping us with any questions we had about medical care or finances. I am thankful that we found a great doctor. As a side note our regular pediatrician spoke highly of him as well.

I would highly recommend Dr. Krug to anyone looking for a good surgeon. All the nurses and front office ladies are personable and kind as well.

Dr Patel does fantastic work he is great at communicating, has a wonderful bedside manner and an amazing team of support staff. I wake up daily amazed that I can now read the clock across the room without glasses or contacts! I was so impressed with the operation aspect of the business, the entire staff is friendly, communicative, professional and values your time, investment and confidentiality.

I saw Dr Niraj Patel at Pacific Northwest Eye Associates for correction of cataracts. At that…read morefirst consultation, after the exam and the doctor's assessment, I started to ask a question when Dr Patel interrupted me saying: "I've only done about 20,000 of these. But go ahead, ask your question." As if I was offending him by having concerns. As if by asking questions I was somehow challenging his expertise, rather than acknowledging it. As if this wasn't exactly the right time and place to ask questions. A bit shocked by his dismissive comment, i initially thought I should simply leave and find a different doctor. Then I thought about the weeks I had to wait just to get this appointment, and starting that process all over again, and I swallowed my pride and simply responded, "No, never-mind." But I also knew then that I would eventually write a review in which I told prospective patients this story, in case anyone preferred not to be disregarded in this way. To be fair, I am pleased with the results of my surgery. I had researched Dr Patel and never doubted his skills. But I was offended by his manner at that initial consult and believe that patients deserve to be treated better.

I don't usually write reviews for medical places unless something really stands out, but Rainier…read moreOrthopedic Institute genuinely impressed me. They saw my brother for a broken femur, which is obviously not a small thing, and from the moment we were there, the care felt different. The provider who saw him took her time, didn't rush through anything, and actually answered all of our questions in a way that made sense. You could tell she cared, not just about the injury, but about him as a person going through it. Same goes for her medical assistant. Super kind, attentive, and just easy to talk to. It didn't feel cold or clinical the way some places do. It felt like they actually wanted to make sure we understood everything and felt supported. Honestly, after seeing how they handled his care, I've been seriously considering switching my own care over to them. That says a lot coming from someone who's pretty particular about where I go. If you're dealing with anything orthopedic-related and want a team that actually listens and treats you like a human, I would absolutely recommend them.

Dr. Hammill is a specialist too, I see in your MyChart you have other referrals, so you have to have a referral!" No one can "self-refer" anymore. Argh. Dr. Hamill might be brilliant, but I won't know.
