His thorough exam and meticulous gathering of information impressed me right off, and when he was able to offer a difinitive diagnosis and help me deal with what was happening I was extremely grateful. I look forward to my visits in his office quarterly as he truly does care about each of his patients. I could not say enough nice things about him.

Dr Mary Jo Cofereos is so sweet and easy going. She not only puts your health care at the top of…read moreher priority but is conscious of what your insurance will cover. I've had several appointments with her now and she asked how much my copay was before asking to schedule another follow up. Northwest laboratories is inside the MultiCare Spanaway Family Practice location so it was very convenient to have my blood work done in the same facility as my family doctor. And the staff was very friendly and personable. Plus they took several steps to make me comfortable and at easy since I am not the best patient when it comes to needles. The front desk staff Martha and Mandy are also amazing medical receptionist. They are knowledgeable and friendly and treat every patient with respect and integrity! For anyone looking for a new doctor in the Spanaway area I heard there are a few doctors in the clinic accepting new patients at this time!

I went for my first visit today and I was so nervous but it went well…read more The clinic itself is clean, quiet with no weird smells. Believe it or not, my prior clinic back in Tennessee frequently smelled like fast food and the nurses there were very loud with their conversations and jokes. Not the case here. Sign in and paper work was quick and easy and the lady at the front desk was nice. Wait time in the waiting room was only about 10 minutes. A nurse called me, took my wait, asked my history and answered all my questions. She was also friendly as well. When the nurse left the room the doctor arrived in about 5 minutes to examen me...very short wait! Sorry if it's too much info but I requested a Pap Smear along with my physical and she was very gentle...Im sure you ladies can appreciate that info. Not even a little pain or discomfort. She also told me I had a tilted cervix which...in my many years of seeing doctors in the past, no one has ever told me that so I'm pleased w/ all the information she gives. The employees all seem to really care about the patients. The doctor I saw was Dr Wang...yes...Dr Wang gave me an amazing Pap Smear...go figure...haha. Ok...seriously though it was a good visit and hopefully the rest of my care is this good for the rest of my time here. They accept Tricare.

I really appreciate the less than 5 min wait time too.

He was clear in his explanations, professional, friendly, and we even shared a bit of humor.

This review is specifically only for the Multicare Northwest Laboratories inside this location of…read moreMulticare Clinic in Lakewood. The good thing about Northwest Laboratories is that they're part of MultiCare and the results is uploaded on MyChart. Another good thing is that you dont need appointment to get your labs done. Here is the downside, and this is not just for this location but most of Northwest Laboratories. Be prepared to wait like you're at the DMV. Everyone comes here for lab, on top of the patients that come out of this clinic after their appointment (this one houses Mary Bridge Children's hospital clinic and Multicare Family Practice in same building). So just pack your patience. First things first: like all other Northwest Laboratories, you gotta fill out one of those Blue slips upon arrival, no questions asked. The faster you fill that out, the quicker you will be seen. Its actually crowded in early morning because people want to get their blood drawn and break their fasting asap, but afternoons are just as crowded. The staff are kind and the lab staff are very knowledgeable and professional. Some labs can take a while to get your results but this one is very quick in my experience, coming from a person who has lab tests every 2 months for past 20 years. This location is smaller than the Pearl street (Tacoma) location but they are located in less busier commercial mall so I like it here for that, and quicker results. Lab staff probably are some of best I've experienced with! Lastly if you're Overlake Medical Center (Bellevue) patient, its also a plus because Overlake is now owned by Multicare and everything on MyChart is easy peasy.

This is a walk-in lab and they do all kinds of testing. I come here to get my thyroid levels checked every few months. They're always quick and helpful, kind and personable at the front desk. They get you checked in and then you wait... they'll call your name and once you go back into the lab area they are quick about their business but do a good job. I get my blood drawn a LOT and it's always nice when you're phlebotomist actually knows what they're doing. If you come early (7:30-8), the wait can be longer because everyone who is waiting on fasting blood work tends to check in first thing. Other busy times are lunchtime, and around 4 right before they close. I've see the wait shortest in the late morning or early afternoon. Can't say I have a ton of choices because this is where my doctor sends my lab request but I'm glad it's here. :)
