Let me start by saying my first visit with this doctor was amazing…read more However all interactions after this were not with the doctor and instead with office staff. --- I had to contact the office multiple times for lab and x ray results but dismissed this as a fluke --- For my follow up visit, where I needed to talk about my medication management and current pain levels I was denied access to care due to my need for ADA parking which was limited due to construction and damage in the parking garage. I tried for two weeks to make a complaint to corporate and they have not returned any of my calls to ensure that I have what is needed medically for my care. They couldn't even pretend to resolve it by saying if I pay this unfair fee I can be seen right away ---- I arrived 20 minutes early but was unable to locate handicap-accessible parking to fit my vehicle due to construction and blocked spaces in the nearby garages. While searching for parking, I called the office around 10:00 a.m. to inform them of my situation and ask whether I could still be seen by being worked in or did they want me to reschedule. I was transferred between three different call center representatives before finally connecting with someone. I have attached a photo I took today because I had to return to this same building to see another provider. The spots are still blocked off and not van accessible to allow for access for a person in a wheelchair like my son. By the time I found a parking spot at 10:20 am, I was told not to come in by the call center staff and that I would be charged a no-show fee, despite being on the phone with their call center for over 20 minutes trying to get help. At no point did I attempt to miss the appointment, I was actively trying to attend and communicate with the office because this is important for me to try to get a handle on my own health care. I explicitly asked them to put me through to the office and verify that I could not be seen. I was told no one answered the phone and also that they answered and said no... contradicting what the office manager later said. When the office manager, Jasmine Jackson, contacted me the following day, she stated that the office would have been able to see me had the call center communicated that I was waiting outside, but I was told not to come in by them even though I explicitly asked to be seen multiple times. Jasmine went further to blame me, suggesting that I should have parked in a lot a few blocks away behind a Tiffany's store. I am not familiar with the area, and I chose the two garages nearest the building and then street parking, because I was concerned about my ability to walk farther with my adult son, who has limited mobility and is difficult to push in a wheelchair, especially given my own back and extremity pain that limits my ablity to walk long distances. I also spoke with Kelly in the business office and Stacey in the call center, both of whom said they would follow up with me regarding this issue. Neither has contacted me as promised, demonstrating a continued lack of responsiveness from the office. I am concerned now that I have been abandoned for care because they are prioritizing this no show fee for an appointment I begged to attend as soon as I figured out how to safely get my son and I inside over my actual health status, knowing my medical condition impacts a vulnerable person who relies on my care.

Dr. Wolfe is well-informed about the latest information in his field. I trust the information he…read moreprovides and he is clear that decisions about next steps are up to me and he is there to help. I appreciate that he emphasizes that I'm in control of how to proceed. The only thing I would prefer to see change is that he seems to see me only in terms of my disease/condition rather than as a whole person. I know he's quite busy, but a little more effort in that direction would make me feel more comfortable there. For instance, he may not be aware that have some background knowledge so I could handle more technical and scientific explanations that go beyond the basics.

I have mixed feelings about my visit with Dr Wolfe, on one hand he was kind, helping me out with a…read moreblood test, and it was above and beyond the average doctor, it was truly kind. And on other I feel like he maybe came to a potential diagnosis without looking into my medical history enough. I felt prejudged because I met non-medical criteria for a certain condition (age, sex, mental health) and that not enough discussion about my medical history took place. I do think he cares about his patients and I am going to keep my follow up with him. But be ready to go over all your symptoms, previous conditions, and write out notes if it's long and complicated because you probably won't be ask about them in detail.

She did not bother with nerve conduction testing, So, base on MRI she decided I need surgery - and STAT. $ months, max. Second opinion "established" that what was "found" on MRI is 5+ years old with NO changes, no spinal damage, no nerve damage. So tell me again, why do you recommend surgery STAT to create potential more scar tissue with no guarantee of any satisfactory outcome? I would NOT recommend her to any living human being. SHe was abrupt and saw only one image: the MRI. not the person.

Dr. Hoffman at Summit Orthopedics was absolutely wonderful. Diagnosis through MRI was marked stenosis, among other related issues at Lumbars 4 and 5.

At 6 weeks I feel almost normal, back to gym. Dr. Hoffman is an excellent surgeon, friendly and forthright manner, responds to questions most helpfully and was just superb overall. Could not have been better.

I rarely write reviews but have been so pleased with the excellent treatment that Dr. Lee…read moreFirestone has provided that I am motivated to share my outstanding experiences with others. I initially saw him for orthotics. Dr Firestone was tireless in making sure that the orthotics were exactly right and called the manufacturer numerous times to have them modified until they were right for my foot. I also saw him for a painful toe. His treatment quickly and gently resolved the problem. Most recently a neuroma was causing pain and hindering my ability to take the long walks that I love. After carefully examining my foot and my orthotic Dr Firestone felt that a modification to my orthotic would help resolve the problem. Dr Firestone personally sent a picture to the orthotic manufacturer detailing exactly what he wanted done. He will contact me when they are ready. I know from my previous experience with him that he will not be satisfied until " he makes it right for me." Dr Firestone' s expertise, empathy and tireless pursuit of finding the best treatment for my foot problems has earned my kudos and deepest thanks!

I took classes here in Acupressure and I just want to say that I struck a gold mine when I found the Washington Institute of Natural Medicine. The classes were taught by Linda Khanzetian, a Doctor of Natural Health. Dr. Linda is an excellent teacher. I could not have asked for a better teacher than someone with her background and level of experience. She's thorough, patient, and answered most of my questions before I could even ask them. The wisdom that she shared I could not have discovered in a book on the subject or picked up from instructional videos. More than anything, her passion for the natural healing arts came through loud and clear. To say the least, it inspired me and further motivated my desire to practice Acupressure. At the conclusion of the classes, I understood a lot and felt like I received what I needed to pursue this area of the healing arts. I should also mention that I found the spa setting there to be very conducive to learning.
