Scheduling was easy, the facilities were beautiful and calming, and everyone I interacted with was kind, professional, and clearly very skilled at what they do. Dr. Lim herself is a gem -- amazingly kind, easy to talk to, and she took the time to explain everything in a way that made me feel completely at ease. It's rare to find a doctor who combines expert care with such genuine warmth. Her team of smart, supportive women worked together flawlessly, making both my endoscopy and colonoscopy truly pain-free and smooth. And the best part? I walked out of my appointment with all my results and scans in hand -- something that, as someone who goes to the doctor often, I've never experienced before.

The nursing…read morestaff disregarded my pain and were more focused on moving me to a back corner room so they didn't have to hear my moaning in pain. My wife (who's also a nurse at a different Swedish facility) asked my nurse to call pharmacy and expedite verifying my pain meds but the nurse sarcastically responded "Congratulations, you're a nurse!" Refusing to call pharmacy, and said "We can all hear him screaming..trust me". There were three nurses sitting at the nurses station periodically giggling and looking at their phones when my wife made the request. However the doctor- Casey M Krebs was by far the worst part of my visit. She seemed incapable of creating a care plan and didn't show any urgency. She seemed more focused on pacifying us for the moment and quickly leaving the room than actually helping us understand our options or initiating the process of me transferring to a hospital with urology. We were still asking her questions as she was trying to close the door and leave. It was obvious she did not like it when my wife asked any questions on my behalf, and completely disregarded her concern that the CT results showed severe hydronephrosis. The doctor said "That is not the focus. Im not concerned about his hydronephrosis, Im concerned about his kidney stones." I got such poor care that I decided to leave AMA while still in severe pain and drive to Swedish Edmonds, which was the best decision I made that day. To be honest I'm not sure the staff at Mill Creek even knew the process of transferring me, let alone doing it quickly. Once I arrived at Edmonds they took my case seriously from the start, scheduling me for emergency surgery the next day to remove the obstructive stone. My pain was well managed and my whole care team was incredibly skilled and empathetic. I am still completely disheartened with my experience at Mill Creek and would advise ANYONE considering it to go anywhere else.

I was really surprised within 10 minutes of being seated that my mom was called. They took us back to a room to get more details on what occurred and then outlined the next steps. Immediately sent her back for X-rays and then back to her room. Every single person we encountered at Swedish was kind, professional and very, very thorough. They did an excellent job setting our expectations for the visit. From start to finish we were only at the hospital for 1.5 hours.

My father visited the Providence Everett ER on 2/19/26 and 2/20/26. Both visits left A LOT to be…read moredesired. During the 2/19/26 visit, no one even bothered to enter the visit into MyChart. I had no idea what was going on. Your Emergency Room goes out of its way NOT to talk to patient families. I am my father's Power of Attorney because of his severe dementia. On 2/19/26, I called three times to speak to a member of my dad's care team. I FINALLY got to speak to someone and found out Dad had already been discharged back to memory care. Why isn't your Emergency Department involving the POA in the patient's care? On 2/20/26 my father returned to the ER because his wound was bleeding way too much, he was not himself, strong personality changes, pain in ribs and profound facial swelling. I called the Emergency Department and on the third try finally spoke to someone who said they would add a note to Dad's chart to call me. No one ever called and I did see the note to call me in MyChart. As I mentioned, I am Dad's Power of Attorney and his dementia prevents him from being able to articulate what is wrong. I live in North Carolina. If I could be at his bedside, I would be. Another two hours passed and nothing. After my 7th call, I finally speak to a guy at the nursing desk who tells me my Dad's nurse "has her hands really full right now" and could he take my number. I gave him my name and number and told him that as Dad's Power of Attorney I needed to speak to his care team to explain why he was brought back and what we hoped would come of the visit. I told the guy helping the nurse that Dad had such a personality change in 12 hours and an oozing head wound that it was worth further investigation. The nurse at my Dad's memory care facility believed he had a concussion. Dad's aide believed he had a concussion. After I spoke with them about changes in Dad's behavior, as I too was thinking he could have a concussion. Not one nurse or doctor ever took the time to call me to discuss my father or why we wanted him looked at again. I checked MyChart and not a single test was run on my father on 2/20/26, the reason staff wrote that Dad was brought to the ER was incorrect. Basically, my father sat there, no testing was done, and he was returned to memory care without a single person at Providence contacting me about my father TWO DAYS IN A ROW!!! It seems illegal that the Power of Attorney is not contacted when care is administered to a person that has no idea why he is there. On a personal level, I am also my father's daughter. Is it the policy of Providence to keep family out of the loop when caring for patients? My father's memory care facility called me to tell me my dad was released and was being transported back to his room at memory care. SO, obviously the phones at Providence DO work if they can call the memory care facility but not the daughter/POA. I can't articulate how angry I am that I was excluded from my father's care. Memory care informed me that the ER removed the staples in Dad's head (he fell on 2/13/26) that the ER told him on 2/19/26 weren't ready to be removed yet. Information about the readiness for Dad's staples to be removed was in the After Visit Summary from 2/19/26. This tells me your nurses and physicians do not read chart notes. To conclude, my father was brought back on 2/20/26 for concerns he might have a concussion, but staff wrote down that the visit was about a bandage and removed staples that were not ready to come out and never spoke to me. Your facility told more to Dad's memory care facility than I ever heard. Staff never contacted me during either visit. I intend to escalate this complaint.

Let's start by myself being questioned why we were at "this" ER, instead of an ER that we prior visited earlier in the day... well this ER was closer to our home, we needed immediate medical attention, it was getting late and the first discharge paperwork stated to return to ER immediately if having problems.... Overall Why does it matter?... I'm in the middle of trying to get care for my wife who has extremely complex and acute conditions and we were disrespected at every step of our visit. I took us to what a thought was a professional medical facility with professionally trained medical staff that respected patients and took their jobs seriously. We were viewed as drug-seeking from what I can tell, as that could be the only explanation for the treatment we have received, and that is just unacceptable. The team did not listen to me, the caregiver of the patient, and against my direction made numerous mistakes that led to further patient harm and distress. Starting with in the waiting room, my wife had to be assisted to a recovery position on the floor so she did not fall out of her wheelchair due to active seizures - staff approached us and said we could not be on the floor and she had to get up. At this time my wife was in the middle of seizures, unable to communicate, understand, or control her own body. I had to argue for them to even listen and they left, clearly frustrated - but not offering any help. Later the same nurse came out saying they had a bed - my wife was still on the floor and unable to utilize her strength to move herself. The care staff then asked, "what do you want us to do?" I thought that hospital staff are trained to help patients off the floor from falls and etc, so I literally said, "are you not trained to help a patient off the floor?". After they finally sent out staff to assist me in picking my wife up to get her to the room, they literally asked me to open their medical cabinet to grab IV and blood draw equipment - I am not a medical staff at UW - that is totally unacceptable - again! What procedures are in place to ensure these numerous mistakes are not made over and over? It is a harm to patients, patient families, and the community. It's crazy how those most vulnerable and dependent upon intensive medical care, are treated the worst by the medical staff they rely upon. One of the first things I said is to not use her left arm due to the series of conditions that will make it difficult, if not impossible to get a line. Well you can clearly see they did not listen and blew her vein out. We followed up with our primary doctor at UW who was horrified at the care we received. Let's just end with although this is the closest ED to our home we will take the risk and drive to the next one. We have reached out to patient relations numerous times with no response. It seems that they are more concerned about google reviews here than good patient practices and may finally get back to us here?????????

When you are required to have a primary care physician you expect to develop a relationship with that caregiver and seek them out, specifically, for your medical needs.

But every time I have had an acute situation since, the soonest they will schedule is 3 weeks out. When I complain they tell me to go to urgent care or the ER. NO!!! I have a specific care provider and insurance for a reason. I expect a day to 3 days wait, but if you ever need to be seen quickly, there quickly is a minimum of 9-10 days. Expect to use your local ER and pay that bill. This is terrible care IMO. So sick of this healthcare system. Might add that I am paying $1300 a month for this insurance. Super annoyed.
