Our first meeting with Dr. Blau was very positive. We had confidence she's is the one who might…read morehelp my wife. However, after she wasn't accepted to the clinical trial Dr. Blau has been running - her attitude towards my wife has changed dramatically. We waited for weeks upon weeks to hear *anything* from NWMS (Northwest Medical Specialties) or Dr. Blau. She only called us once and after that we had calls from NWMS to schedule an appointment with her may be once a month - all the while my wife's situation was deteriorating on a weekly and then daily basis. There was no care provided, nobody at NWMS (least of all Dr. Blau) was willing to appeal our medical insurance when they refused to cover the trial drug. We were totally and utterly left on our own devices. Prior to a clinical trial when my wife was found to have a new brain lesion (practically a death sentence, you know) Dr. Blau couldn't be bothered to pick up a phone and talk to us *for almost a week*! And then it was "Well, doctor, should we do something about it, like may be scheduling another Gamma Knife procedure? - Sure, go ahead and schedule it with Harborview." Well, excuse me, what have you been doing for the last week once you learned my wife has a new brain lesion?! Definitely, not trying to schedule anything on your end. Later, other providers would be spending *weeks* chasing Dr. Blau to simply speak with her on the phone about my wife's medical condition because we were "lucky" to have her as our primary oncologist and it was way too late to switch providers. On top of everything else, her office submitted my wife to a series of very costly tests (FoundationOne being one of them, be careful if she mentions one) which later considered charging us their full cost - Dr. Blau or anybody else in the clinic didn't think it would be a good idea to discuss with us a potential cost of tests if a patient isn't accepted to a clinical trial. But why am I not surprised - obviously, neither Dr. Blau neither her staff at NWMS (except very few people) gives too much thought about the patients physical and emotional well-being. UPDATE: that was taken care of later, we're not responsible for FoundationOne bill any more. In short, I wouldn't recommend anyone to start care with Dr. Blau. If, God forbid, your situation gets complicated and you are not accepted to the clinical trial she's running - she will immediately drop your case, leave you out in the cold, take vacations, holidays, travel to conferences all she wants while you'll be waiting in vain for somebody to get in touch with you about anything - that's exactly what happened to us . When my wife passed away I contacted all doctors one by one who were actually fighting for her life and thanked them all sincerely, knowing they did the best they could. Dr. Blau doesn't deserve this. She did absolutely nothing to help or at the very least comfort my wife emotionally when the end was inevitable and she was suffering the most. An absolutely cold and careless doctor we met in our lives. Let this review be my wife's last words about a horrible treatment she received at Northwest Medical Specialties with Dr. Blau.

Dr Blau is literally a life saver. She has been my wife's oncologist for what, 8 years now? She not…read moreonly follows the literature and the established protocols, she has a very deep and comprehensive knowledge and understanding of these anomalies we call "cancer", and has always been willing and able to answer any and all questions with brilliance and compassion. I've seen some negative reviews in this forum, but I won't get into emotionally charged debates with people I don't know and can't comment on their personal experience. Analytically and intellectually, Dr Blau is a true hero. And for a doctor, we want analytical and intellectual as primary qualities.

I am so thankful for this place! My Dad was going to Seattle 3 days a week for infusions at Fred…read moreHutch. They treated him great, but the drive was just too much. Dr Zhou took him in and rolled out the red carpet. The staff is fantastic! They are so patient and compassionate. The lab and infusions are all done in the same building, so results come back quickly.

I've been giving the Multicare Regional Cancer Center 5 star reviews as their doctors are top…read morenotch. I went there for radiation. Unfortunately - I won't be going there again and will seek follow-up care from other physicians. Getting treatment here requires that I pay two co-payments for a single visit. I have to pay one copayment to see the doctor and a second copayment because I saw the doctor at the regional cancer center - which is where the physician's office is located. Essentially - I have to pay a facility charge to rent the exam room. This is a bogus charge that the Multicare charges to offset their expenses in general. I had been recommending Multicare but, unfortunately, can no longer do so. Having to pay copayments and the uncovered charges is bad enough but having to make TWO copayments for a single visit is bad medicine. I asked them to waive the copay portion (my portion) since they had already collected from my insurance company but they refused and the phone agent, Robert, would not escalate my request to get it waived. I can pay one copayment but two is too much. They've lost my business. There are plenty of good doctors at facilities that don't make money grabs like this.

Something has happened to the quality of care by Northwest Medical Specialties. The communication…read moreand follow-up is horrible. As a previous cancer patient served by this office years ago, the compassion I received then is now gone. This time my husband is the patient. What has happened to this once fine and helpful clinic? Having worked in the medical field for almost 20 years, now retired, this protocol would not have been acceptable in our clinic. I am in disbelief our experience here thus far. Especially the lack of urgency or follow up with a patient that is worried they might have cancer.

i have been a cancer patient since 2014. i was originally working with dr blau in puyallup who is…read morebeyond incredible. i trusted her implicitly and would recommend her to absolutely anyone. she is dedicated, she cares, and she stands up and advocates for her clients. she is kind but direct. i know she saved my life. in 2025, my cancer spread to my brain and i was no longer able to work with her. my only option was a clinical trial and she referred me to dr chaves at nwms tacoma location. some of the issues i accept accountability before. i had been through treatment before with an amazing team and i expected this to be the same. on the clinical trial, there were countless errors in treatment and a general disregard for my experience. i was not seen as human first. no matter how i advocated for myself, nothing changed. dr chaves was 20-90 minutes late for my appointments. i was still working and communicated at almost every appointment and in writing that this was not acceptable. staff would tell me he had many sick patients or was seeing patients at the hospital and wasn't even in the building for my scheduled appointment time. the expectation was that i just needed to show up and he'd get to me whenever he could. my desire to be as med free as possible wasn't often considered and i would have to remind him that although he was prescribing something, i wanted to discuss alternative options first. more than once i sought these options on my own through my own research with no assistance from him or staff. i had to routinely get blood draws. those were also almost always running late, sometimes they didn't have the correct vials or labels. and at one blood draw, some other patient's labs were added to my chart causing a great deal of confusion and fear. ultimately, the treatment and care were so poor that i decided to move across country and transfer to dana farber cancer institute in boston. as a therapist, i know and understand that mistakes happen. we're human. but reducing a person's identity to their diagnosis, routinely calling them by their legal name instead of their preferred name, and the general disregard for a patient's time and their livelihood is not something i can tolerate.
