I cannot say enough about Larinda Ogawa, PA-C, and the exceptional care she provides at Cascade Eye…read more& Skin. Over the years, I have been treated by many medical professionals, and unfortunately healthcare can sometimes become so focused on the medical task at hand that the human element gets lost. Larinda is a remarkable exception. She is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and professional, yet she has never lost the human touch. She takes time to listen, connect, ask about your life, and make you feel that she genuinely cares about you as a person--not simply as a patient. As the current Deputy Mayor and former Mayor of Puyallup, I have spent many years working with and observing professionals from virtually every walk of life. You learn to recognize the difference between someone who is simply competent and someone whose character, compassion, and professionalism truly set them apart. Larinda is one of those rare people. There is no medical professional I trust more--not simply because of her medical knowledge, but because of her humanity. I am equally impressed by Larinda's commitment to mentoring the next generation. On many visits, I have seen her teaching a student or intern. It is encouraging to know these future medical professionals are learning not only medicine from her, but also what compassionate, patient-centered care should look like. I also want to recognize her assistant, Bailey, who is bright, personable, professional, and has tremendous potential. I understand she hopes to pursue PA-C training herself. To any program considering Bailey: take a serious look at her. She has an exceptional mentor in Larinda and the potential to carry that same combination of professionalism and humanity forward. Larinda represents what healthcare should be at its very best: excellent medical care from someone who has never forgotten the person behind the patient. Cascade Eye & Skin is fortunate to have both Larinda and Bailey. -- Dean Johnson Deputy Mayor & Former Mayor of Puyallup

I am a nurse practitioner myself and did a lot of research before deciding upon Visian lens surgery…read moreas I was not a candidate for less invasive procedures. I wanted to make sure the surgeon I visited had a breath of experience and training. After the experience I can truly saw I was impressed from my initial consult all the way through surgery and after. 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 also feel that I was upsold to a $9,000 Light Adjustable (cataract) Lens. In all fairness Dr…read more Patel had recently chosen LAL lenses for himself. I am very healthy, as are my eyes. I do not have any health conditions that would discourage LAL lenses. My brain is as healthy and efficient as people who are much younger. I have been unable to adjust to the dual focus that is part of the LAL concept. One eye for distance, the other for close up. My eyes got tired, dry and irritated when driving, as I was only using one eye. I had the same experience with close up vision, reading, watching TV etc. My vision blurred. I've learned it is not uncommon for the brain to have difficulty making that adjustment. As a result, I experienced dizziness and my brain was unable to efficiently "track" what I was seeing. Since the surgery my eyes are extremely dry. It took over a year for the burnt, bruised feeling and floaters to resolve. Fortunately I have an excellent optical physician who was able to correct my vision with progressive lens glasses. My experience with LAL was similar to many of the patients I spoke with while in Dr. Patels waiting room. I did all of the research, asked all of the right questions but feel some of the cons were omitted from the conversation. I am not questioning Dr. Patels skills as a physician or his ethics. He is a very skilled surgeon. I think he believed LAL lenses were the best he could offer me. Hopefully he is being more realistic about their success now.

I have been a patient of Dr Niraj Patel for a few years. I've been going for my regular, yearly…read morediabetic check ups. He's always been very accommodating, polite and professional. He had said I would need cataract surgery but he didn't push it and left it to me for when I was ready and couldn't function. Finally, it was time. He willingly postponed it when we were apprehensive in March when the COVID-19 virus had so much uncertainty. Now he scheduled me and my right eye was a breeze. The operating room staff was friendly and put me at ease. Post operative was simple and I was out of the office in an hour. When I was concerned about a post operative question, he replied promptly. I would highly recommend him. All of the staff are well trained and polite and professional. Next week I am scheduled for my left eye cataract surgery!

Upon arrival, I was informed that they did not accept my insurance. They claimed to have called me regarding this but did not leave a voicemail to discuss the issue. The front office staff initially suggested a self-pay option, but when I inquired further, I was told that self-pay was not available either. This experience highlights the breakdown in the healthcare system and a lack of accountability on their part in two instances. 0 accountab=0 stars

Followed my female care CNM (Certified Nurse Midwife) here after she got her ARNP (Advanced…read moreRegistered Nurse Practitioner), specializing in Endocrinology. She cares about the whole person, always asks how I'm REALLY doing. My youngest daughter recently aged out of Peds NW and was able to get in here. My middle son won't age out until the end of August but he proactively made a new patient appointment. It's 6-8 month wait to get your new patient appointment but they're THAT good. Just remember to activate your MyChart with them so you don't miss any because they have a "2-missed appointments and you're out" policy. I have sickle cell trait and had to reschedule because of the 109F temps a few weeks ago, and was able to cancel easily in MyChart over the weekend, and then called a few days later to reschedule. If you send a message in MyChart, it's answered in 24-48 hours usually. Front desk staff are professional and kind, also when you call on the phone if you have a glitch in a pharmacy refill. I'm usually in and out promptly, and I've never had a doctor here treat me like I was making up my symptoms. I recently got my 2nd pneumonia shot and my middle son was shocked that we were driving out of the parking lot less than 20 minutes after I parked.

I just got referred to physical therapy for hip pain and when they called to schedule me they said…read morethe earliest they could get me in was at the end of August. That is completely unacceptable. This was the same for the Tacoma and Gig Harbor offices as well. So I guess I'm just out of luck or have to deal with the pain until August...
