During my sessions with her I was SO comfortable & relaxed, and anyone who's been pregnant knows what a challenge it is to get comfortable! I'm lucky that I didn't experience terrible pains with my pregnancy, and I may have her to thank for that. She is very proactive, targeting known problem areas during pregnancy & also gave me some tips on posture to help save my back. I also got a postnatal massage that was very nice! She can help your post-baby body gently recover, and work out some of those aches & pains you get caring for a new baby.

Dr. Karmali is the best doctor I've ever had, and I've had great doctors in the past. I visited her…read moretowards the end of last year as a new patient and she spent about 30 minutes getting to know me before checking everything that I asked her to. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed every step of the way, talking me through everything. Dr. Karmali is extremely kind, attentive, gentle, humble, and calming. She went to UW Med School, so extra points for that! Another cool thing is that Swedish uses MyChart, an online personal health record system where you can see your medical history, appointments, messages from your doctor, etc. Strangely, when I called to make an appointment, the receptionist said that Dr. Karmali did not have any openings until January 2015. However, when I went online to MyChart, I saw multiple openings between now and the end of the year. I ended up making an online appointment with Dr. Karmali for early December and cancelling my phone-made appointment with another doctor at Swedish. I am so excited to go see Dr. Karmali again soon!

After my motorcycle accident in 2009 Dr. Karmali checked up on me and worked with my medical records from Harborview to continue with my pain management care. To this day she still works closely with me on this care and has been very good at keeping an eye out for my health and well being and continues to work with my pain management doctor at Harborview. Dr. Karmali set me up with MyChart (available to all Swedish patients) when I moved back to WA and through that I am able to discuss issues with her without having to make an appointment to go into the clinic (I'm already there enough as it is!) and she is quick to get back to me usually same day but definitely within 24 hours. She even responds on her days off and to me, that is complete dedication and proves just how much she cares about her patients. I have recommended her to a couple of friends and they love her as well. Dr. Karmali is very knowledgeable and caring. If she is unsure of something she will investigate the issue to ensure that you get the best possible care. She is just an amazing doctor and an even more amazing person.

Would give more stars if I could. This story starts over 2 years ago when I suffered a herniated…read moredisc that led to severe foot drop, knee pain, and constant back pain. My initial experience with physical therapy left me feeling pretty hopeless that I would ever return to anything close to "normal." Running again--or feeling athletic at all--felt out of reach. When I walked into Tangelo, it was mostly because my back pain flared up after trying to get back into the gym and lose weight after so much inactivity. What stood out immediately was that even with my MRI results in hand, Dr. Mike still took the time to listen. I made it clear my goals were bigger than just pain relief--I wanted to run races again and get back to the level of athleticism I had as a college football player. Instead of a generic, one-size-fits-all plan, I got a thoughtful, progressive approach that actually aligned with those goals. We didn't just treat symptoms--we built strength, stability, and confidence step by step. Working with Lawrence was always impactful, as we focused on movements specific to running and my injury. For the first time since the injury, I felt like I was truly moving forward instead of just managing setbacks. Fast forward to now--I'm running races again and have set both a 10K and half marathon PR. That didn't feel possible not long ago. The entire staff created an environment that made you want to show up--great energy, great music, and always a warm welcome. If you're dealing with pain, setbacks, or feel like your goals are being dismissed, Tangelo is different. They don't just get you out of pain--they help you get back to doing what you actually care about.

She is absolutely amazing. She is very caring, authentic, and very knowledgeable. She has been helping me with some issues with my feet, and I have seen a lot of improvement since I started seeing her. I have a ways to go, but she has drastically helped. I have also seen other staff at Sea Pines who are also amazing and knowledgeable. Carly and the administrative staff are also very helpful and help to provide a good experience. They are caring and very knowledgeable about insurance, billing, appointment management, etc. I have seen Julia at both the clinic location and the West Seattle Health club location. The clinic is a very minimalist space but also modern. I love the vibe and decor of the space. I highly recommend Sea Pines for your physical therapy needs and I can't say anything but good things about Sea Pines!

I guess a lot of acupuncturists only study herbs in their acupuncture program and can only give the standard formulas, but since she did the masters program she can make formulas specifically for you. I can't say they taste very good but they sure have helped me with my problems.

Dr Chandrashekhar's ability to synthesize information into a clear, personalized treatment plan is remarkable. Grounded in evidence-based medicine and enriched by her background in oral surgery and broader education, her approach is both thorough and thoughtful. I felt truly seen--for my condition, symptoms and as a whole person. After my appointment, I felt a sense of hope I had not felt in a long time. I travelled from out of state to see her.

I rarely leave reviews, but this experience was deeply disappointing…read more I sought treatment here for TMJ/orofacial pain and went through multiple appointments, including imaging and digital scans for a custom appliance. After investing significant time and multiple trips to the office, communication became increasingly frustrating and inconsistent. I was told my appliance appointment had to be rescheduled because of a delay, only to later receive a termination letter ending the provider-patient relationship due to an alleged "breakdown in the therapeutic relationship." What bothered me most was not simply the termination, but the lack of clear, straightforward communication regarding the status of treatment already in progress. Matters that should have been simple became unnecessarily complicated. If you are considering this clinic, I would strongly encourage asking detailed questions upfront about billing, insurance coverage, timelines, and how unresolved treatment plans are handled if issues arise. This was an unexpectedly stressful and disappointing experience.

Parking is located across the street at the parking garage. Make sure to bring the parking stub with you up so that the receptionist can stamp it. The stamp will ensure you a parking discount. Smooth experience from start to end. No long waits in between. I didn't feel rushed or just another patient. She thoughtfully listened to all my concerns & answered all my questions. She explained everything to me thoroughly and very clearly. She thoroughly examined my walk, leg, etc. and was able to pin point the problem instead of ordering a bunch of x-rays that would cost more money. I left not just very satisfied, but I even asked her to recommend me other doctors since I was so impressed with my experience! (I am currently looking for a family doctor/general physician) Anything sports medicine related, I highly recommend her.
