Dr. Hoke was very knowledgeable. He ordered an X-ray, and I was able to get it done just down the…read morehallway on the same day. I also received Dr. Hoke's message on MyChart with my X-ray results that same day! I really appreciated the convenience and efficiency they offered. The front desk staff checked me in efficiently, and I also appreciated the beautifully decorated facility for Medical Assistant & Tech Week and Halloween. Parking was easy since there was a parking lot.

Had the absolute worst experience today as a new patient in the oncology department but also…read moreoverall in this center. First, there were seven receptionist there when I walked in no one else in line and no one else waiting in the waiting room. Two of them were having a conversation with each other and the rest were just staring at their computers no one was on the phone or speaking to another patient. I stood there for a good 7 minutes standing there by the sign that says "please wait here" until someone finally looked up and acknowledge me. I almost took a photo because it was almost comical how I was just standing there for that long and there were so many receptionist for one building and no one else in there. It gets worse unfortunately the doctor I was seen by completely dismissed the whole reason while I was there to see him. He didn't ask me any questions about myself how I was feeling why I was there or why my doctor referred me there. He was blatantly dismissive and honestly came across misogynistic. A wasted copay and future bill i'm going to have to pay. An added misfortunate bonus the parking situation is terrible there and the building feels old and dirty.

Never make an appointment with this Dr. I went to see him because I had recently moved to the area…read moreand was looking for a primary care physician. He had the soonest opening. Until this appointment, I have NEVER filed any kind of a formal complaint against a medical professional (and there have been a couple times that I thought about it). After my appointment with Dr. Scarr, I went straight home and made a complaint through The Everett Clinic's customer service website. More concerning to me than his general lack of respect and professionalism were the following: 1. He did no more than make a cursory glance at the medical history I had just provided to the assistant before jumping to several (incorrect) conclusions about why I was there and how he wanted to treat me. 2. He made multiple out of date, incorrect, and potentially dangerous statements about the treatment of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (a specific autoimmune thyroid disease). And made some rude remarks about my concerns being cosmetic in nature rather than truly medical. 3. He doesn't understand depression and the need for pharmaceutical treatment. Period. And he is insensitive when discussing it. I left in tears and absolutely furious. Most telling to me was that when I scheduled a follow-up appointment with a different doctor the receptionist didn't bat an eye and signed me right up with a primary care physician that hadn't been accepting new patients when I called three days before.

this doctor is insensitive. He may have helped damage my hearing permantly . I saw a walk in doctor…read moreabout my hearing and there was no communicaiton betiween Dr Scarr and the walk in doctor. .After that Dr Scarr put me on sudafed for my ear. He said he knows nothing about the ear but he tried to treat it anyway. He wasted lots of precious time. THere is only so much time to treat a hearing loss before it gets worse.. HE didn't put me on prednisone which should have been the first course of action, He didn't take anything about me seriously. I don['t think he likes disabled clients. I may have had more hearing if he would have referred me to a specialist. He had no business treaing a hearing loss when he said he know nothing aboutt it. He always ran into the room and ran right back out after just a few miinues.

Would rate this 0/5 stars if I could. I scheduled an annual…read moreappointment and checked in at the front desk with no issues.. during the appointment itself, everything was normal. I've had physicals in the past so I know how they go. There was nothing out of the ordinary in this one. They took my blood, listened to heartbeat, did reflexes, etc. I finished and was sent on my way. 2 weeks later I surprisingly receive a bill and it appears that my insurance didn't cover anything at all, despite insurance supposedly covering annual check-ups. I call their billing dept. and was told that since I mentioned having more headaches than normal, it was an office visit rather than an annual checkup? Wtf? I've had physicals in the past where they ask how I'm doing and I tell them honestly and have never been billed. I ask why wasn't I told during my check in, and the person on the phone says that the medical assistant tried to called me but couldn't reach me and so they changed it without my knowledge and consent. If I had known that I was going to get charged for bringing up a topic I COULD LITERALLY GOOGLE, I would have never came in. Procedures for a physical were also conducted so why isn't that also there in the notes? Very sus and super opaque by my standards. They also said that the doctor told me during the exam but that's a lie, because I would have left immediately. What incentive does a doctor have to tell you that you'd be billed for something, when they get paid for it? It seems like this clinic doesn't give two hoots about the actual health of their patients and are just out for your money. I had multiple calls trying to talk to someone who could do something about this, but all they said was that "we can't change it because the service was provided". So, if I go in, and they give me something I never asked for, I'm billed? I'm out $400, because of negligence and a lack of effort to try to do the right thing. These people are horrible and don't care about you. Also keep in mind that you must lie to your doctor during physicals if there's anything wrong, because if you tell the truth, they'll bill you. Doesn't make a lot of sense, does it?

My family always felt comfortable with…read morehim in knowing we could be seen by him within a day or two and we would get the best care possible. He would listen to our medical problem, we weren't rushed in and out in 5 minutes, and he would do his best to actually help. Now its just a business to him with the sorry you have to wait six weeks to get in no matter what the issue is, then you get 5 minutes of time rushing your appointment through so the next patient in line can be seen for their 5 minutes. Plus we can only address one of your medical issues today you will need to schedule a second appointment again with a 6 week wait because time was not allotted for more then 5 minutes. Not to mention don't be late because if you are guess what you won't be seen. I wonder how many dozens of times we have all waited past our appointment times for a Dr. who was running behind for one reason or another. This includes times I have been scheduled with Dr. Rittenberg. Everyone's time is just as valuable as a Doctors. Hopefully this review, should he read it, will help him find a way back to caring for his patients, caring for human beings, and remembering that when he earned his medical degree an oath was taken to help those in need of medical treatment not how much are we charging today for that 5 minutes of our time we are blessing you with. Thankfully I have found a Dr. that still treats people without worrying about Corporate America.

Wow, we had our first appointment for my toddler son with Dr. Hung this week, and I left the…read moreappointment feeling so good. The fact that we got a whole hour with a Dr. Hung, was truly a gift. She answered all my questions and provided suggestions for supporting my son. We've gone to other pediatricians and she was the first pediatrician that had patience and empathy for my toddler son that gets scared of doctor's offices. She let him put the stethoscope on his chest, and she pointed to him where to put it. She had light up toys to distract him and let him play with. I've never had a doctor that prepared or patient. We will continue going to Flourish Family Medicine. There were a lot of forms to fill out before the appointment which took up a lot of time, but it did provide the doctor with a lot of information, so I appreciated it.

My only bit of feedback is around the hounding that the office staff does to get patients to fill out the questionnaires. For my baby's first appt I was having some trouble adjusting at home to all of my new responsibilities that came with taking care of a newborn, my toddler and myself having just finished a high risk pregnancy for gestational hypertension. As I was finally sitting down to complete the paperwork prior to the deadline while in between feeds I received yet another reminder call. I explained my situation to the lady that called me and she had very little empathy.
