This is a nice clinic in Auburn. Located close to the main street and next to more than one other…read moremajor healthcare building. Parking is available on the street and there is more than one parking garage nearby. If you park in one of the lots there are a few designated spots for this clinic and they (they clinic) ask you to give them your vehicle info when you come in so they know you are parked there. That is probably the only sort of unusual thing about this clinic. Staff is very friendly and professional and everyone here will go out of their way to help you to the best of their ability.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Nickel and his entire team. From the very beginning,…read moreDr. Nickel was an incredible communicator--personable, kind, and always willing to answer every single question I had. He made me feel comfortable and confident throughout my pregnancy, which is something I am beyond grateful for. When it came time for delivery, my baby had other plans and I ended up needing a C-section. Thankfully, Dr. Nickel had already taken the time to explain everything to me beforehand so that when the moment came, it wasn't scary or rushed. Because of his preparation and clear communication, my C-section went smoothly and I truly could not have asked for a better experience. Leading up to delivery & after delivery I appreciated his check ins, it was nice to see a friendly face around! The nurses and staff at his practice are also absolutely outstanding. They were so kind, attentive, and just wonderful to be around--it really makes all the difference. Nurses and doctors can truly make or break your experience, and I feel so lucky to have had such an amazing team by my side. Truly one of the best. I couldn't have asked for anything more. Dr. Nickel and the nurses made what could have been a stressful situation into something positive and reassuring, and I will always be thankful for the outstanding care I received. I would recommend him to anyone!

Dr Maynard is an extraordinary doctor; extremely knowledgeable, thorough, caring and attentive!…read moreWhen I start to worry about complications I know that if he is there I am in good hands and feel safe and that everything will be all right no matter what happens. I really appreciate his comforting demeanor too! He has helped my husband and I through two miscarriages and now a stillbirth where I was induced and had to deliver early. He was very compassionate and understanding that I wanted to have as much of a live and natural birth as possible. He worked really hard to make sure I had all the right information and that things went as smooth and quick as possible because he knew I was worried too about getting back home to my 4 yr old. Finding out our baby had a condition it couldn't survive from, giving birth early and holding him when he was so small was the saddest and hardest experience in our lives but Dr Maynard was very gentle, patient, and present with us giving us time to baptize him and spend as much time as we could with him. He made sure I wouldn't have any troubles after delivery and come back to check on us twice at the hospital and called me from the office the following day to talk about how I was doing, instead of just returning my message on the portal which really helped so much! Throughout the pregnancy whenever there was an urgent need he made the time for me to come in as quickly as possible and always returned messages right away. He is the first male doctor I've had as an adult; I always felt too shy and uncomfortable before but I am truly thankful I found him and can't imagine ever having anyone else. I pray he will continue to be here throughout the rest of my childbearing and menopause years!

I'd like to leave a review for this clinic, and I'll be cross-posting it on Yelp as well. As it…read moreturns out, I never actually became a patient of theirs--and in hindsight, I think that's a good thing.When I found out I was pregnant, I started looking for a clinic and chose this one based on their ratings. They scheduled my initial appointment nearly a month and a half after my call. I waited patiently. Initially, I had a phone consultation for April 6th. They called and asked if I could move the time from 2:00 PM to 10:00 AM, and I happily accommodated them without any issues.My next appointment--an in-person visit--was scheduled for April 14th. We ended up being late because we spent too long searching for a parking spot. At the front desk, we were told that their policy allows a 10-minute grace period; however, we were 15 or 20 minutes late. And that was it. They just rescheduled me for April 28th.I pleaded with them to at least give me a referral for an ultrasound, since I was nearly 13 weeks pregnant and mine was a very high-risk pregnancy--not only due to my age and the fact it was an IVF pregnancy, but because I was carrying twins. The receptionist just stared blankly at me and kept repeating, "I'm sorry, no. We can only issue a referral after your first in-person appointment; you aren't a patient of ours yet." In other words, that initial phone consultation didn't mean a thing. I had gone out of my way to accommodate them when they needed to change a time, yet they simply gave my slot away to someone else. Just great.Here's what happened next: I went to MultiCare Regional Maternal Fetal Medicine Tacoma and asked if they could perform my first-trimester screening. Anyone who has dealt with a high-risk pregnancy--especially with twins--will understand the urgency. If I didn't get that specialized ultrasound done before the 13-week mark, I would miss the window entirely. The head nurse at MultiCare actually called the Rainier Clinic directly and spoke personally with Dr. Maynard to get me a referral. And naturally, they shut me down--I didn't doubt for a second that they would. They reiterated that I wasn't their patient.We decided to arrange a referral through my family doctor instead. But while all the paperwork was being processed, I started having a miscarriage. Great, right?If this clinic had simply seen me on April 14th and scheduled an ultrasound--as they were supposed to--the problem would have been detected immediately. It turned out I had an anembryonic pregnancy, and my body began rejecting it on April 18th. Naturally, I never made it to their "wonderful" appointment on the 28th.Honestly, I have no idea what kind of "magical" waiting lists they have that require a month-and-a-half wait. But now I know for certain: at this clinic, they couldn't care less about their patients. You're late? That's your problem--we have rules. You're nearing a critical deadline for tests? That's your problem, too. You have a high-risk twin pregnancy? WE DON'T GIVE A DAMN--you're not our patient. Yet, when a doctor is late--and they are always late--the patient is expected to sit there meekly and wait.I truly believe that, due to their negligence and indifference, I could have found out about the failed pregnancy two weeks sooner. Ultimately, I transferred to Tacoma General; there, I received prompt assistance and certainly didn't have to wait a month and a half.I was a fool for agreeing to such a long wait in the first place. I won't let that happen again. If a clinic behaves this way right from the start, hang up the phone and choose a different place--there are plenty of others out there.

My experience since that first visit has stayed pretty consistent. I've seen four midwives so far,…read moreand all of them have been great. I prefer some over others, but that's just personal preference they've all been fantastic. The MAs are also good. There's one named Cali (not sure how it's spelled) who is a sweetheart--always friendly and someone I'm glad to see. The rest are nice as well. The main issue is the receptionist staff. Whenever I come in to check in, I walk up, say hello, and let them know I'm there for an appointment... and I get ignored for a while. After this happened multiple times, I started waiting for them to greet me or check me in, but that also takes a while. Most of the time they don't even look up at you while speaking. The front desk lacks basic customer service, tone of voice, friendliness, acknowledgment. Sometimes they sound monotone, sometimes there's attitude, and often there are long pauses where I'm left standing there unsure if I should sit down or stay put. One time I stood in front of a receptionist for a full two minutes before being acknowledged (the office was empty) A simple "I'll be with you in one moment" would go a long way if they're in the middle of something. I've worked front desk in medical practices myself, so I understand multitasking, switching between screens, verifying insurance, and dealing with difficult patients. I get it. But basic acknowledgment and courtesy should still be there.
