Hello everyone, First of all, I am a cancer survivor my…read morename is Zouhair Mardini and here's my story. I am a resident of City of Snohomish Wa, and this statement is way past due, a year and a half ago, I discovered a lump over my right upper chest, I somehow thought I may have injured myself and that it would go away. Within a couple of months, that thing swelled up to become a 10 pound tumor, like normal, I didn't think that this would ever happen to me. So, I went into severe depression and non-acceptance, and I was terrified, and I landed at Dr.Costas's office. I truly think the angels have placed me at her clinic, she took over with lots of speed, took charge of me, within a few days she operated on me, I believe the surgery took around 10 hours and that she removed around 10 pounds between tumor's and ribs. I opened my eyes and here she was with her even smile and incredible personality, the kind of smile that makes you feel at ease, and a personality that makes you feel like you're going to be okay. I have never in my life met someone who is so caring, so professional ,so amazing, and knowledgeable at what she does. Her office is so thorough, her staff is so kind, as a matter of fact I look forward to visiting her office because I feel safe, I can't begin to say thank you to Dr.Costas that she has saved my life. I don't know any other word better than thank you, my family and friends they all thank Dr.Costas, I think we are the lucky ones that we have Dr.Costas in our county. I have never met someone with that kind of profession so quick to act. It has been a little over a year and every 6 months I have to visit Dr.Costas for checkups, for the second time she turns from her desk with a smile and looks at me and says " Mr. Mardini you are cancer free." . It's music to my heart and its like an angel talking to me, I so appreciate you Dr.Costas, and I do have two daughters and I hope someday they'll become just like you. Mardini

This is a perfectly nice place to get your MRI done at. The only problem with them is that they're…read moreaffiliated with EBJ Surgery Center, which is a total nightmare...(see my other review for details) This is why they only get three stars from me. The building also houses a shoe store, which is interesting, but I guess makes sense for folks with orthopedic issues. Lewis was the technician, and really couldn't be better at his job! He's straightforward, calm, reassuring, and smart. If I had been nervous about having an MRI in the first place, I imagine his 'bedside manner' would be quite comforting. He made the whole process very easy and explained things enough so that I had an idea of what was going on. Top notch! The lady in reception (whose name I didn't catch) is also very nice, right on top of things, and did a great job. The equipment appears to be new, and basically looks like the MRI machines you see on tv- big, white, tunnelish... If you can get your MRI done here, and then have another clinic handle the results, go for it! At least this portion of Everett Bone and Joint knows WTF they're doing.

My husband had surgery at the gateway surgery center, it was very unprofessional and I was not…read moreallowed to go back with him, or sit with him before surgery. He said when he got back there no one greated him and Dr. Boggs was chatting it up with the staff, came over and made a mark on his foot and left. My husband's pain tolerance is difficult as he's been on pain medication for ongoing issues, and was prescribed the lowest dose of medication possible. We addressed this with the anestesiologist, and the nurse at the surgery center who completely agreed that the medication would not work for pain and to speak with Dr. Boggs staff about this. He spoke with Nickki, who was extremely rude, unsimpathetic, and he told her the medication was not working, she said to double up the dose, ice it and see if that works. She made him feel like he's a drug seeker, She didn't care, and on the sheet of paper they gave us it said to call the doctor directly if your medication doesnt work. Thats what he did!!!! I called back and advised that hes in excrusiating pain and ice, and elevating it and the medication is not working, and he's been doubling up on his dose, she said well who told you to do double the dose, really you just told my husband to do that. So long story short they are not going to do anything, and I said well this is a waste of time, and I guess hes just going to suffer and be in pain and ended the call. She called back, spoke to my husband and said I thought we were on the same page? Really???!!! No not at all, your not helping. You make him feel like a criminal, and drug seeker and doctors are clearly scared to prescribe pain medication, but it's for a surgery. We are very unpleased with WWMG, and Dr. Boggs staff, and if we couldd go else where mid treatment we would. It's hard enough to see my husband in misery, and awful pain, and then to see him hurt by making him feel like he's a criminal and drug seeker. We will never do business with Dr. Boggs, or WWMG again. Very dissappointing that you leave your patients in agony! I've called my insurance company to make them aware of the complaint as well, and the BBB. Beware, if your having surgery and have a pain contract, you will be left in misery and be made to feel like a drug seeker and criminal.

I have been having foot troubles for 5 years straight...the last year has been impossible…read more Couldn't walk more than a quarter of a mile without being in horrible pain, swelling, etc. Looked every where for a doctor that would take my insurance....but my insurance company is so awful out of 30 some doctors no one would take me as a new patient. I had seen Dr. BOGGS online and wanted to see him but he wasn't seeing new patients (with my insurance) either. I ended up going to my shoulder surgeon begging for her to try something or at least give me direction after reading my xrays and MRI's. She gave me an injection in my foot and referred me to Dr. Boggs. I was able to get in because he was part of my existing surgeons. His staff has been great, on the phone setting up appointments, checking me in, the ladies that work in the back with him (T and Nyckki---she's the super rock star!!!), from check ups to xrays they are the best. Super efficient, helpful, and personable. Dr. Boggs did a few injections to determine his plan of action, and we eventually agreed on surgery. He and his staff were able to schedule me ASAP, and I had foot surgery in May. They have been great getting all my appointments scheduled and keeping me on track for recovery. I appreciate Dr. Boggs's honesty, and realistic expectations, goals, etc. He definitely knows what he's doing and is quick to put me at ease. If you are looking for a great foot doctor/ surgeon that has a reliable, friendly staff...check them out. Convenient parking, easy to access, and does surgeries at Gateway...not dirty hospitals.

One PA was frustrating, and scheduling isn't always smooth, though the gals at the front desk are super nice every time we can reach them. In long Last spring, my lovely bride had a massive stroke, and has seen the orthopedist, pain management doc, and spine specialist here. The pain management doc moved to another office this year, and we'll see her again shortly. One quick outpatient procedure last year was a waste of time because the PA just hurried through it. The orthopedist had been called out for an emergency surgery. We repeated that proc a couple months later with the actual MD and it was super effective. Lots of reviews mention how tough it is to schedule here, and sometimes the phones do leave you wondering if you'll ever get through to a human. Once you do, though, they follow through and stuff gets done, at least in our experience. The facility is nice enough for sure. Decent amount of parking, clean and bright. It's surprising to find a medical facility that does not have automatic doors for wheelchair users, but then again, this is not the only one. Those doors are evidently way more expensive than we might think. Overall we're happy with the care here and will continue to be seen.

Personally I view the fact that they are willing to let an injury worsen and become irreparable or at least a more complicated fix as a full violation of the sacred hippocratic oath. Now yelp wants to know about care quality the last time I went there was for a torn meniscus which is still torn and probably worse now. While I can say the doctor i saw seemed polite I felt as if he didn't care and spent maybe 12 seconds listening to me before sending me on my way. Im sure this place is great. Im also certain that unless you are gonna make them more money then they lose they won't waste their time on you. Go somewhere else if you can
