Dr. Sawyer, is amazing, I Have been going to the Pioneer Family Practice for over 30 years and have had wonderful care starting with Dr. Havalak who retired many years ago and two other DR. And a NPR then Doctor Sawyer for the last several years.
Dr. Havalak was also wonderful and caring, although DR. Sawyer is also caring, down to earth, wonderful personality, truthful, and I have to say I have never had a doctor that worked so hard and would take the time to call you or a family member to check up on you. My husband has also been going to him for several years and Dr. Sawyer was concerned about his symptoms January 13th so Dr. S sent him for a CT scan that found two large cysts on his liver. Dr. Sawyer referred him to a specialist at Gastro Health, who then referred him to the U of W which has been long process. My husband has been waiting since January 27th to get a biopsy on his liver and DR. Sawyer and his wonderful nurse Misty (s/p) have not given up finding one. The Gastro Health specialist originally told us we had to go to the U of W because there was no one in Olympia or Tacoma that could do the biopsy, but then when the university Dr. finally called us for phone consultation, he said that the biopsy procedure is done by a specialist of radiology and that there had to be one in Olympia or Tacoma , so we called Dr. Sawyer to inform him of what the University Dr. told us and he and His nurse went to work on finding us The right doctor at Capital medical on the west side of Olympia to do the procedure. We got the call yesterday from Misty that they put a rush to get the biopsy and talked to South Sound radiology where CT scan and MRI was performed to get my husbands film to the Capital radiology dept. ASAP So they can view and get my husband biopsy done. Not only has Dr. sawyers nurse been wonderful keeping us updated by calling us but Dr. Sawyer himself has called my husband numerous times also.. He is the best! I am 77 and my husband is 83 and he doesn't care how old we are he still believes we have a lot of life in us to give us the best care we deserve! HE is a 10 in my book !!! He reminds me of the TV sitcom years ago called "Marcus Welby MD" although I don't think Dr. Sawyer would know who that is since he was probably in grade school or maybe not even born yet? Lololol We love you DR. Sawyer MD and his nurse too! Respectfully, Jim and Cheryl read more
