TL:DR - If you're okay with a doctor and ER team that's going to treat a patient who is passing a…read morekidney stone (that has been diagnosed by their team!) as though they are drug seeking narcotics, and isn't going to pay attention to details, and won't make good on the issues that their own department creates, then this is certainly the place for you. Full rant below: If you have options for your ER visit look elsewhere. My husband and my experience with Dr. Sami T Ali and the ER department was less than spectacular. We are very frustrated as it was made clear that we were going to fly home to California shortly after our midnight ER visit for his first kidney stone. The prescription that was given to us wasn't even dated, and none of the pharmacies here will take it without a check mark over the qty as well. Well, we're all human and make mistakes at 12 in the morning (I certainly didn't catch it), so I called the ER in hopes that they could just send the prescription digitally to the pharmacy, but apparently they can't. So because of this team's incompetency we're up a creek unless we go to another urgent or emergency care to see another doctor in the interim since nobody is open on the weekends. Who likes having money anyway right? There's some things that aren't their fault. I get it, you deal with drug seeking patients constantly in an ER, and it's not exactly this hospital's fault that the controlled substance processes are broken because of this, but at the end of the day you are a medical facility. In a medical facility details ALWAYS MATTER. If you were really that worried then why not test the blood that you took?? You can clearly see if this is just an addict trying to get their fix, or if this is someone who is clean and just trying to get through a painful process. So, as stated in my top summary, if you're okay with a doctor and ER team that's going to err on the side that a patient who is passing a kidney stone (OW!) of guilty until proven innocent for trying to treat their pain, and isn't going to pay attention to details, and won't make good on the issues that their own department creates, then this is certainly the place for you.

I was offered zero sedation for the procedure-- it was only once they'd already done it that they asked why I didn't opt for sedation. Because you didn't offer it!!! Once I got to my car, they called and were scolding me for "walking out," even though the tech had said I was good to go. I was treated like a non-compliant patient the rest of the time I waited. My appointment was also at noon, and they didn't pull me back to start the injection until 1:30. Every experience I have had here was terrible and I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. I have ZERO idea how they have good reviews. This doctor does not care one bit about his patients and treats everyone like an inconvenience.

I have received no help with pain and I hope the shot will relieve some of the pain: I cannot walk. The intake personnel/admin appear to care less about my condition. I have had previous pain clinic care and this clinic offered no help with lidocaine patches, ten units or any offer to help with the pain until I received the steroid shot, which may or may not help. As a senior, I feel very dismissed and their care does seem callous.

Okay, time to give some Coddles to a very special Medical Person.. I have had to face the fact that…read moreslowly but surely, I am getting older, and as I do, all those injuries I thought nothing about in my early Police Days, are slowly but surely rearing their ugly head at me, and causing HELL with my day to day life. Especially in the Winter. My regular Doctor told me about Deb Kiley, so I reluctantly went to her office. Best move I have made since finding J. Little as my Doctor. Deb took a look at this poor old Cyborg body and new I was in trouble. Since going to her my quality of life has improved, I can move around alot more, and she always has a "Good Medical Idea" for my ailment's am very thankful she took me as a patient. If you live up here, and suffer from alot of discomfort during the Winter months, then get your ass in to see Deb. She is one in a million, and Alaska is lucky to have her...(Don't tell her I wrote this, she might think I like her or something....:)

After 9 months of being seen at one family, setting up the perfect birth plan, getting comfortable…read morewith the midwives, and being extremely excited for a natural birth, 1 week before we were due, they informed us they would not be able to deliver my baby for me because they were going nonprofit and their current midwives were leaving. Come to find out they knew this for a year before they took us on and never at any point told us. I was left due in one week trying to find a doctor who would even take me let alone find a natural birth. At that last appointment, without my consent or knowledge, they stripped my membranes. This was absolutely horrifying. I WOULDN'T TRUST THEM WITH MY FISH LET ALONE HELP ME BIRTH ANY OF MY BABIES.

I had my first child at One Family the summer of 2011 and it was truly an AWESOME experience! I was…read more7 months pregnant and a first time mom when I first came to One Family. The midwives along with the rest of the staff was really warm and welcoming. The birthing center itself, was clean, it was bright, and the rooms were very comfortable and homy. I knew nothing about out of hospital births and though I was excited and very interested, I was nervous about the pain and care in case of an emergency. The midwives and the staff did an awesome job at educating me on out of hospital births versus hospital births and, needless to say, I transferred my care to One Family. My birthing experience went better than I could have imagined. I was able to move about as I pleased, I ate and drank whatever I wanted, the setting was calm and comfortable, people I didn't know weren't coming in and out of my room, and though they were with me the whole time, my midwives didn't bother me unless I needed them. That being said, if you are looking for a natural and empowering birth experience and would like to make your own birth choices, within reason, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND going to One Family Birth Center and checking it out yourself! It is a choice that I am glad I made.

When we arrived there were two other patients in the reception area waiting to be called back. After about 20 minutes of paperwork she was taken back to do her vitals then shown to an exam room to wait for the doctor. When I say wait I do mean wait. We checked in at 10:40 am the doctor walked in the room the first time at 12:42 pm. She was very efficient and had a good repoire with my daughter. While the staff is friendly the overall time spent at the clinic made my already grumpy and sick teenager grumpier which in turn got me grumpy. Not sure if they can beef up and have two doctors on staff over the weekend but wow...that was a long time to be seen.

Unfortunately I don't recall the operating room staffs names they were wonderful making me comfortable. In the recovery are I had Page & another nurse & that nurse also top notch!

His surgery was unexpected & insurance didn't cover the entire amount. We made payment arrangements and adhered to them. They sent us to collection after promising they would not. I called and they rescinded and I continued to pay. They offered to reduce the remaining balance by 50% if I would pay in full by a certain date. I agreed (who wouldn't?). THEN, when my son's attorney called to get the remaining balance owed, instead of saying "no, they made arrangements, it's zero", they tried to say we owed the previous remaining balance! When I called, they tried to say it was because my last payment was outstanding. Ridiculous! The payment would have processed well before my attorney could cut a check! AVOID this place! Go to Providence, go to Regional, go anywhere but this place!!

Their admin staff is atrocious. They are rude, argumentative, and extremely unprofessional. Their billing practices boarder on the line of illegal. They estimate how much your insurance will cover and demand you pay what they ESTIMATE your portion will be days before your appointment. When your insurance pays more than they estimated good luck getting a refund. It took 9 months to get a refund after they over billed me by $1,900. I still didn't get a refund, it was a credit. Who knows if it really went through because their admin staff talk down to you and harass you if you ask for a statement of your account. Don't ask for their manager Eli, he'll verbally assault you, belittle you, and remind you how busy their practice is and how unimportant your business is. Again, if it weren't for my doctor and severe medical problem I would never give this office my business.
