There is a tremendous rigmarole with automated voices when you attempt to make an appointment…read more After that, there is a military-style waiting-room atmosphere in which you are called aloud by the particulars of your birthdate (which of course in not only privileged information but a security risk since it is well known that people use their birthdays to access their bank accounts at ATMs). Then, unless you have been regularly appearing at the Doctor's office, you are not recognized when you ask for appointment because the Doctor's system apparently forgets you in three years' time. If after the system has forgotten you because you have not needed a Doctor in three years, you are then treated as a "new patient" and data-mined all over again. Dr. Lunding seems to be a kind of broker who has many underlings she refers you to when you have a medical problem. To be in her presence is to compete unsuccessfully with her computer screen.

My daughter is now in her 2nd year of college but since she is not 19 yet she still needs to see a…read morepediatrician. Dr. McGregor has been her doctor for about 5 years. Fortunately my daughter is healthy and we don't need to visit her often. Typically we see Dr. McGregor once a year for her annual check up and whenever my daughter needs to have her school forms singed. Last year when my daughter brought a form from school to clear her for athletic activities, Dr. McGregor sent her for a cardiac consultation and to proceed very expensive cardio tests just to confirm that everything looks normal and there is no restrictions on my daughter to participate in sports activities. Reasoning behind - my daughter had a Kawasaki's disease over 10 years ago - no side effects after hospitalization and treatment. This year, we ran into the same situation ... Dr. McGregor decided to send us to a cardiologist to have my daughter undergo an exercise stress test before she gives her clearance to play sports. To me it appears that Dr. McGregor is looking for business and I don't appreciate this.

Dr. Miller is one of the best doctors in our experience, but his staff have a lot to be desired…read more Test results misplaced........forcing us to wait weeks to get results while they tell us to NOT call and check on the status after more than 2 weeks waiting to hear from them - a "don't call us we'll call you" type of thing. The rudeness and feeling like a number or feeling that our fears are unimportant are ridiculous. Let's not even get me started on what they did to my spouse when he tried to get an appointment with Dr. Miller. Not professional style behavior considering most of the time we are waiting 2 hours or more to see the doctor since he is always running behind. I see that with a silver lining though......he spends a lot of time with each and every one of his patients and is not afraid to blow the schedule to smithereens just so he can spend extra time with each patient. Hats off to Dr. Miller for that. Several doctors are like an assembly line - in and out with zero bedside manner. All in all, we will be taking our business elsewhere since most of the bad experienced with the staff just doesn't make it worth it to us anymore. Best of luck to Dr. Miller and thank you for everything. You will be missed.

I cannot urge you enough to avoid Dr. Grafals. I went to see her because I had postpartum…read moredepression and was having a bad reaction to the med my gyn had prescribed. I felt awful - emotionally and physically. She abruptly told me that if one SSRI didn't work for me, none would, and I'd have to go on stronger meds and wean my 3 month old baby. When I asked her if it was a good idea for a depressed mom to lose the only connection I could make to my child, she said it didn't really matter much whether I nursed or not, that she had chosen not to nurse, and that my son would be better off if we let him cry at night, weaned rapidly, and bottle-fed him. I was stunned. I couldn't believe that a doctor could be so ignorant and put her personal opinions about the "waste of time" breastfeeding was (her words, I'm not kidding). She wasn't kind or even understanding. She seemed amazed that I cared. I read the literature - I'm a professor, I'm used to reading professional journals - and I told her that there were many safe antidepressants for nursing moms, that nursing helped with the symptoms, etc. Here's what it comes down to: she didn't care in the least about me and what I was going through physically, she had no idea about research that was 10+ years old, and she gave me BAD and seriously HARMFUL medical advice - without any sort of knowledge of the meds she was going to prescribe. Run, do not walk away from this terrible doctor. I went to a psychiatrist even though I thought I didn't need to, and found out that different people respond to meds differently, that some SSRIs work when others don't, that nursing was key for my condition, and that my chronic insomnia (which Dr. Grafals had dismissed even before I was pregnant) was a key part of the issue. Don't see a GP for anything related to insomnia, anxiety, depression. Don't let them prescribe meds they know little about like Paxil and Ambien. I now have a GP who works wonderfully with other doctors as needed - knows what she knows, and doesn't hesitate to refer me to a specialist where needed. She never puts her personal opinion in the way of my care, and she listens to me. Grafals didn't even come close - but I'm grateful in a way. If she hadn't been so indifferent and uncaring to me, I never would have found a GP who was the complete opposite.
