I went to Dr Blahous with a foot problem after having been through almost three months of physical…read moretherapy. I had great improvement but still had problems that the therapist said they could not help with and the other doctor I was seeing just kept wanting to do more PT. Dr Blahous treated me quickly and efficiently. Now I don't have the problems I had. He is also very personable and his staff and office are very nice as well. I highly recommend him.

I have written very few negative reviews. However, when I see a medical practitioner behaving in a…read moreway that negates a clients rights I feel it's worth speaking up. I very much like Dr Blahous as a doctor, yet am being charged for services what were not clearly explained, and his staff's mis-scheduling of my appointment. I called to schedule a cortisone treatment in my foot, I had this with him once before with good success. Upon arrival, I was told the treatment that I was scheduled for (and took the morning off work for) couldn't be done at that office. I was still charged for the visit and encouraged to get x-rays "since I was there anyway". Once rescheduled at the correct office, I received the injection and had zero benefit from it, meaning no relief for the pain. Never had I been told during either treatment that this procedure was a "maybe", only that they could be very specific about the injection location due to their technology. Never was I informed that sometimes this doesn't give any benefit whatsoever. When I addressed the over the phone with a nurse - after having tried to reach someone 3 times over 2 weeks - I was told, "well, everyone knows that nothing medical is 100% guaranteed". She was rather rude and dismissive, yet I figured that was part of her job to shut down people who go away that easily. Still feeling the charges shouldn't be 100%, I wrote a letter stating my option of the situation and request for consideration of a reduced bill. Honestly, even a simple reduction for their poor communications, scheduling errors and very slow response time to patient request for a nurse call would have been satisfactory would have been the respectful and decent thing to do after their oversights and errors. Nope - I just received a call that "Dr Blahous has reviewed his records and your charges and he has decided to let the charges stand as they are. He believes the services warrant payment in full." And then she goes on to tell me to call to make payment arrangements. I'll pay it. And I will tell anyone whenever the opportunity allows how I was treated by the team with Dr Blahous and the Sports Medicine Clinic.

While my friends can't get doctor appointments for weeks, and end up in the emergency room for…read moretreatment of minor concerns, I get to talk with my MedNorthwest doctor (usually Dr. P) a few minutes after I call. (Even on weekends and holidays.) If I need to be seen, they can get me in that day or the following day. Annual exams are never hurried, and test results are fully explained. I'm not only getting great care, I'm saving money by avoiding costly emergency room visits. I'm also confident of getting referrals to the best specialists.

She has a appointment in five months with a neurologist but we though this place might help her manage some of the symptoms and feel better before that. It is the only serious medical issue she faces and yet they won't take her explaining they don't have the "band with" to manage her condition. I suspect they have labeled her in advance as a "white whiney woman" - a term male doctors often use to describe female patients who are aggressive in getting help or perhaps they just though she'd cost the practice too much money. Either way, no help from them.

This is how care should be.

Wise Patient left me unsafe, gaslit, and nearly hospitalized. They advertise excellence and lack…read morebasic competence. I began working with Janna Cuneo as my PCP in 2019 and followed her to Wise Patient Internal Medicine in 2022. She praised the clinic's model. The website promised coordinated care, same-day access, unhurried visits, and expertise in gender medicine. I was rural, disabled, and medically fragile, so I trusted her. That trust harmed me. The decline starting in 2024 was catastrophic. My blood pressure, critical with diabetes and kidney disease, went unmanaged for months. I repeatedly shared logs and asked for adjustments but was told to wait weeks or more. When she was away on one of her many unplanned extended leaves, I messaged her colleague, who immediately recognized and corrected the danger. BP management is basic primary care. Failing to control it shortens my lifespan. Prescription chaos was constant: refills late or wrong, doses increased by 50 percent when we had discussed 10, controlled meds in the wrong formulation and sent to the wrong pharmacy, leaving me without them during flares. In late 2024, I waited weeks for my estrogen refill only to learn she had prescribed unsafe oral progesterone, contraindicated given my family history of clots. These were life-and-death mistakes. In January 2025, I scheduled an appointment to align prescriptions with a new pharmacy and start a prior authorization for a med that keeps me out of the hospital. Despite my planning and over ten follow-ups, prescriptions still went wrong, and I ran out of several meds for a week. They didn't even start the prior auth for 2+ weeks. Staff brushed it off, suggesting I use GoodRx or skip the meds, as if they were condiments. In reality, I was left without life-sustaining medication. It was not just meds. This clinic bungled lab orders, referrals, and disability paperwork. I had to act as project manager to survive. Coordination, supposedly their strength, was nonexistent. Access was another broken promise. Messages often went unanswered for more than a week, sometimes not at all. I ended up booking monthly appointments just to force accountability for labs, prescriptions, and pharmacy info. Even then she failed to show up. In May, during a flare that nearly hospitalized me, she no-showed one visit without apology, canceled another last minute, and called an hour late to the third, rushed after hours, and mis-ordered my meds again. When I documented errors, she falsified notes with "as we previously discussed" about things we never discussed. At the same time, she blurred boundaries with her constant "friend" routine, using fake intimacy to deflect from the harm. This was manipulative, not care, and it deepened the betrayal. When I escalated to Sam Warren, the clinical director, his response was worse. After Janna no-showed me, he did not hold her accountable. Instead he asked me, a disabled patient in crisis, for advice on "best practices" for running his clinic. When I later formally requested reassignment to a safer clinician with interim coverage, his response was silence. No reply, no acknowledgment, not even basic decency. A clinical director who ignores documented patient harm is complicit in it. The impact was cumulative: unmanaged blood pressure, destabilized hormone care, lapses in critical medications, near hospitalization, wasted energy, and emotional harm from being gaslit by people I trusted. Janna loved to talk about "the system," how broken it was, how she was protecting me from it. The truth is that she was not protecting me at all. She became another cog in the system she criticized, incompetent and dangerous. Sam Warren's silence sealed it. Wise Patient claims all kinds of things. What I lived was chaos and abandonment. Behind the glossy promises, Wise Patient is unsafe and unaccountable.

"I gotta guy." is usually reserved for a good mechanic, electrician or plumber and not so much for…read moresurgeons as you may see one, once or twice in your lifetime. But as you see, I have Dr. Schwartz on that list to whomever asks me about a great shoulder-guy. (I work in the electrical industry; we get a lot of shoulder and knee problems.) Anyway, I was warned by my coworkers who've gone through similar shoulder surgeries about all the post-surgery problems, mainly pain and recovery I will encounter. Not true after my surgery with Dr. Schwartz. Yes, your mileage may vary but the worst part for me was having to wear a sling. My pain was minimal and recovery was very quick. (I had the full-meal deal; rotator cuff and bicep reattachment and I guess my collarbone had to be shaved.). Dr. Schwartz was very patient and actually listened to my concerns both pre and post-op. He explained everything from my injuries, my upcoming surgery and what to expect afterwards. He's pretty proud of his work, even showing me a video of my surgery. And his staff was awesome! I liked his work so much, I had my other shoulder repaired three months after my first.. this shoulder's recovering fine as well. One thing to note: getting something surgically repaired is not like taking your car to the mechanic. You can't expect to just go take boxing lessons after you leave the shop. It takes time and a lot of physical therapy to properly heal, as Dr. Schwartz told me on my very first visit. Follow your post-op instructions handed to you and actually DO your physical therapy routines and you'll be fine. So if you're looking for a really great shoulder-surgeon, "I gotta guy...."

I had been dealing with shoulder pain for over a year when I finally saw Dr. Schwartz. He decided…read morethat surgery would be the next logical step and said that he would find a repair whatever was wrong. He did find and fix a couple things that were wrong, and said that if I followed my PT my shoulder would be as good as new. Almost 6 months after surgery and following PT strictly, my shoulder is in more pain than before the surgery with no end in sight. Dr. Schwartz ordered another MRI and I feel like I'm right back where I started, having wasted 6 months and a lot of money. I was terrified of having surgery by Dr. Schwartz assured me that it would end up solving my problem. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

This place is truly dishonest. I should have read the other reviews before I had a yearly…read moredermatology checkup here. Same as the others - location is convenient, the doctors are professional and scheduling is simple. Quality of care is okay, but lacking when compared to dermatologists in other geographies. Then comes the bill - hence the 1 star rating: Neither of the items submitted made any sense at all and thus my insurance didn't accept them. (Again, this is a standard preventative that has had no issues billing at other providers). They had billed for a surgery when none was performed and other unique codes they must realize nets them the largest amount. When I called them, they said they would fix it and submit the correct CPT codes and they had made a mistake. Lo and behold, I receive a bill 10 days later for the wrong amounts they had submitted. This billing is a disaster at best, but most likely a fraudulent attempt at insurance overbilling. I would avoid this place like the dishonest, greedy practice they are.

I missed a few appointments and she gave me a call to check on me to see how I'm doing. She's nice.
