    I started with Dr. Schumer in 2005 by default. I didn't have a stable primary care physician at…read morethat time and I had just received a cancer diagnosis. I felt comfortable with him and thought he was thorough. He has been my primary care physician ever since. I appreciate his candor and sense of humor. I know his bedside manner is not for everyone, but it works for me. I truly believe he is in it for the right reasons. As a matter of fact, when I was in the waiting room, I witnessed an interaction between him and Jackie (his nurse). Schumer just came out of a room from seeing an elderly and very physically challenged gentleman that had a hard time walking and couldn't stand up straight. When he came out of the room, he told Jackie to be sure he had food at home and if he didn't to make sure and get him some. The man has a heart!! Oh, and he knows his stuff!!

    I had health concerns that far exceeded the doctor's expertise and that was quickly determined…read morebased on the prognosis. If you have a cold or urinary tract infection this is your doctor. Otherwise seek another doctor because Dr. David Schumer practices "dated" medicine and the time you waste in his office could be detrimental to your health. As for his staff, his receptionist/scheduler should be reminded of her place in the office and professionalism...very rude and tasteless. The nurse was very professional although I felt like she thought she was the doctor.

    Community Health is doing great work by providing affordable and sliding scale medical care. I…read moreworry a little bit that this location in Auburn has more clientele than they can handle. Dr. Christosomo has been seeing me for a shoulder injury, and has been for the most part very helpful, and was great getting me in to see their acupuncturist and also seems very concerned about helping patients find the lowest cost treatment options available. However, on a recent visit, she had my chart mixed up with another patient's, and it was only after a very confusing first couple of minutes of the exam that she realized this. On another visit, I was left in an exam room for forty minutes before a nurse came in and asked me if anyone had seen me yet. They are VERY busy, and it seems like their organization is suffering because of it. An unrelated issue I'd also mention isn't exactly a complaint, it's just the nature of their practice and something good to know before being seen there- I don't think they are equipped to treat long term injuries that require more invasive care. Dr. C. has seen me for a shoulder injury that is over a year old, and is continuing to get worse. She has been up front with me and told me that "in a perfect world" the next step would be to do an MRI to diagnose and come up with a treatment plan, but in the world of "discount" medicine, I don't think this is realistic. Go here for low cost health care necessities, not for other types of treatment.

    Back about a month or two ago, Aetna & UW Medicine were having prolonged contract negotiations that…read moreseemingly wouldn't have any settlement in a timely manner. During that time I had to look for medical care elsewhere and discovered Pacific Medical. My initial contact was with a receptionist (name ?) who was the most pleasant receptionist I believe I've ever met. She was so helpful and arranged an appointment for me to meet a new PCP (Primary Care Physician). She transferred all my medical records from UW Medicine making the process painless. Did I mention the receptionist was so very pleasant? After my initial meeting with my new PCP, I was thoroughly impressed with the staff at Pacific Medical. The medical facility is really close by my apartment, so traveling back and forth is not a problem. Lots of parking, with about half dozen Handicap parking stalls directly out from the front door of the clinic. Perhaps the time spent with negotiations between Aetna & UW Medicine was my good luck.

    I can't say enough positive things about my visit this past friday. The front office staff was very…read morefriendly. They were prompt to call me back. I saw Dr. McLaughlin. I was extremely nervous, but once we started talking, he was such a kind and caring man, that my nerves just faded. I felt like he listened to me and we worked out the best possible scenario for my needs. One thing I really appreciate about him is that he sat down and talked with me without typing. Every doctor I have been to in the past types their notes as they talk to me and I don't really feel heard. I am very grateful that I found him and I also want to say how appreciative I am of his nurse, Caroline, for reaching out to me personally the week prior to see how I was doing. I can't remember any prior doctor's office staff reaching out to me like that and she spent a considerable amount of time talking to me. I felt so much better after our chat! I definitely believe Dr. McLaughlin when he says Pac Med puts their patients first.
