Well if you are looking for a misogynistic throwback to 1952 Dr. Jensen is your guy. His office…read moresmells heavily of cigarette smoke and was generally unkempt dust bunnies and spiderwebs in the corners. He and his staff kept me waiting for nearly 2 hours , the last 15 minutes of which he paced around the office loudly looking for a stethoscope that he never used during my visit. He was hard of hearing, lacked crucial listening skills and frequently talked over my answers to his questions which had very little to do with why I was there . Within minutes he determined that I had been misdiagnosed by a specialist without reading any reports or lab work , told me I was "smart for a woman" and I had no real basis for stress since it is my husband who has to worry about paying the bills.

My 5 stars is specifically for Dr. Bowers…read more Dr. Cindy Bowers at Shoreline Optum is truly exceptional. Every time I've seen her, she has treated me with kindness, empathy, and genuine respect. She takes the time to listen carefully, never rushes through appointments, and always makes me feel heard and understood. What stands out most is her bedside manner. She is thoughtful, thorough, and incredibly compassionate. She asks great questions, explains things clearly, and never comes across as condescending--a quality that can be surprisingly hard to find in healthcare. I always leave feeling that my concerns were taken seriously and that she genuinely cares about her patients. I've had both good and not-so-good experiences at this clinic over the years, but every experience I've had with Dr. Bowers has been outstanding. As far as I know, she only works in urgent care, which honestly makes me a little sad because I would love to have her as my primary care provider. Dr. Bowers is one of those rare healthcare professionals who leaves people feeling better not just physically, but emotionally as well. She is definitely a bucket filler--if you know, you know. Shoreline Optum is fortunate to have her

The brilliant Dr. Verrilli was my primary care physician for over 20 years--not in Shoreline for…read moremost of the time though. He was at Minor and James in Seattle for a good long while before a shakeup at Swedish caused many of the best doctors to seek other options. Dr. Verrilli helped me with every imaginable problem, from car accident injuries, to the pneumonia I got annually for the last decade of my teaching career, and when necessary, he also sent me to some outstanding specialists. But the thing I credit him with most of all was diagnosing and developing a plan when my husband showed up in his office in March 2004 complaining of stomach pains and weight loss. Some guys would've handed him a few antacids and sent him on home, but Dr. Verrilli ordered blood work,endoscopy, colonoscopy all stat. Sure enough, it turned out to be stomach cancer. It was a rough period, but my guy recovered because of the attention he gave to my spouse's case and the diligence with which he checked in on him in the hospital, even though we had the oncologist (best in the city, again thanks to Dr. V), the surgeon, and a host of others. When the ball got dropped at one point by hospital staff that hadn't started an IV after several hours, Dr. Verrilli raised holy hell (fairly politely) and made sure treatment was provided promptly and correctly. I genuinely think we owe my husband's life to this talented, caring physician. Things to know: on your first visit, he's going to whip through a list of routine but necessary questions. He does this quickly, not because he has no patience, but because he wants it out of the way so that most of your appointment time can be used for whatever it is you came in for. When in doubt, he orders tests. He explains everything, and if you miss something, ask and he'll explain it again, differently if necessary. He works fast while he's in there with you, and that's why you are getting seen promptly, or very close to it. He wants to deal with your concern within your allotted time so that the person after you gets seen promptly, too. He is almost the only doctor out of the dozens I have seen in my many years in Seattle that will apologize if you have had to sit for an unplanned ten minutes waiting for him to come in and examine you. The guy has integrity. During times when one or the other of us was pretty sick but not hospitalized, he would either have someone on his staff call to check on us at home, or he would pick up the phone and do it himself. We would still be seeing Dr. V, even though it now means a drive from South Seattle clear up to freaking Shoreline, but our employment changed and now we have to use Kaiser Permanente doctors, which Dr. Verrilli is not. But you just cannot find a more conscientious and knowledgeable doctor anywhere. Highly recommended.

Otherwise, you can end up being marked as a no-show and forced to wait another month for an appointment after your original one -- simply because you didn't know that appointments apparently need to be "babysat" in order to actually get scheduled correctly.

Clear communication and proper scheduling should be the bare minimum. The Medical staff are fenomenal, sadly can't say the same about front desk and scheduling team including Cindy

During my first visit, she sat down and tried to explain how the thyroid works and etc. However, upon my following visits, she appeared rushed and didn't bother to spend the time with me. In fact, I felt rushed and didn't have the opportunity to ask her the questions that I wanted to ask. On other follow up visits, she would just give me lab results without bothering to check anything else. She basically read verbatim the lab results. These visits were probably less than 7 minutes, in terms of check up time. I was frustrated because she could have just called or emailed me the results but instead asked me to come in so that I would be billed the hundreds of dollars for seeing her for less than 7 minutes. Also, it seemed inefficient and a waste of time. I also asked her to write me a doctor's note to explain to my employers about my condition. Her letter was super ambiguous and basically said nothing. I understand that there is patient confidentiality to adhere to but it basically didn't tell my employers anything about my condition and said that I "may" be experiencing some symptoms. She obviously is treating my condition, why would she say "may"? The letter consisted about three sentences. I was charged about $10 for this "letter." I thought the entire situation was ridiculous since she seemed to try to gauge me on all these unnecessary expenses. She was not the right fit for me. I changed doctors after my fourth or fifth visit. My new doctor emails me my lab results and spends time to answer my questions even though I know she is also busy. There have been times where my new doctor has literally said, "oh you don't need to come in for that, I'll just email you that information." My new doctor also doesn't charge me $10 for doctor's letters. I really appreciate it when doctors seem to consider the patent's best interest at hand. This was just my experience so I don't know how representative my assessment is.
