Over covid she expanded to telehealth visits which have been great for small concerns although I still generally go to the office. There is an in-house lab making routine stuff really easy. This is the kind of family care I want. She knows me and my family, makes recommendations and sees trends from regular care vs transactional appointments in walk in clinics. And when I want a referral, and I prefer a female provider, she always has someone to suggest that is a quality provider. Cheryl, her ARNP has relocated for family, and I haven't met the new provider but expect her to carry the same values and care to her clients. I'm treated as a person here, with a face and history. it's appreciated.

Wow, I just read the other two reviews of Dr. Girolami, and I'm wondering: are we talking about the…read moresame doctor? I've been seeing Dr. G. for 15 years now, and she's always been super-responsive to me, as has the P.A. who works with her, Cheryl Allen. In fact, although I wouldn't call myself a hypochondriac, I AM super-proactive about health issues, due to some crappy genes in the ol' gene pool. So I call the office and visit whenever a pesky issue arises (for fear it's NOT really just a "pesky" issue). Dr. G. and Cheryl have always been very accessible to me (and my husband, who is also a patient). They've always returned my calls, taken the time to answer my questions, and taken my concerns seriously. I don't know the receptionist well, but she's always been pleasant to me. The nurse I've seen there has always been SUPER nice to me. Are we speaking of the same practice??? Yes, I know Dr. G. is into providing cosmetic procedures (something I will never be into, personally), but she's never even mentioned that stuff to me. She is very into sports, fitness and nutrition, and weight loss, and she's very knowlegeable about these issues (which DO interest me). Years ago, she's referred me to the most awesome OB/GYN, and other specialists, all of whom were terrific. I'll always be grateful for these references. She has been wonderful for me and my family, over the years.

Was assigned Dr Rao when my doctor retired. She said she "was not convinced I was using my CPAP"…read moretho I said I was. Was surprised cuz she basically accused me of lying for saying I was using it but I didn't say anything. On my next annual exam I came back with print out from my sleep doctor documenting that that was using it. I explained to her what she said and that I wanted to prove I was using it. She said thank you for bringing to her attention and I should always bring up something to the doctor, and I'm right in doing so. She was sorry if she upset me "but going forward I should see a different doctor". I couldn't believe this. I had not been confrontational, argumentative, raised my voice, or used bad language. After looking at reviews, I have seen that she has told other people not to come to her again. I informed Virginia Mason of this but they never got back to me. That is why I'm posting review. Because the more people they see that she told them never to come back to her again and post that she has told them to go elsewhere, the more Virginia Mason will believe patients over her. She backpeddled after I told her that she said she wasn't convinced I was using my CPAP. Said she must have meant something else. But I really didn't see any other way of taking that. And the next day when she sent me results for my labs, she said good luck with your further healthcare. I responded on her treatment of me because I know nurses read those emails before Dr does and they can know what's going on too. She back pedaled and said she was just letting me know I am welcome to see other providers and have options. No. She's straight up told me going forward I should see someone else. Highly recommend avoiding the doctor.

He was the anesthetist. He was very comforting and reassuring. Very kind man. Spend a few minutes talking to me and seemed very sincere. Dr. Lai came in to introduce himself. What a great man! He was very nice and took time to explain a couple things. He made me feel like I was in the best care possible. Exceptional demeanor and gave me confidence that everything was going to be okay. Shelly helped me after the procedure. She was so great! She helped me get dressed and provided great information. She was just super nice! Overall, this was the best experience you could possibly hope for under the circumstances. The staff was incredibly compassionate, helpful, and kind. I felt like I was getting the best care possible. I got a very nice follow up call to check on my condition. This was a great experience considering the reason for my visit. Thank you all for being so amazing!
