I am post surgical decompression of my L4-L5, by 1 day... I woke up today almost pain free. My…read moreOrtho doctor, Dr James Pritchett, had Dr James Raisis assist him with my surgery. My husband and I found Dr Raisis to be very friendly, respectful and great bedside manner. I am very, very picky about who my doctors are, and I immediately felt very comfortable with Dr Raisis. In the recovery room I heard staff talking about him, and they had nothing but good things to say about him. In my book, if medical staff speaks highly of a doctor, that is who I'm going too see! Dr Pritchett made a good choice!! Two wonderful doctors, and this morning, I'm sore but no real pain!! I was told to expect lots of pain post op...doesn't seem to be happening! And I credited those two doctors and the great staff at Swedish Ortho Insitiute!!

I don't live in Seattle anymore so this review is rather overdue, but I am currently reviewing my…read morerecords from Dr. Raisis and his colleague Dr. Steege, which reminded me I wanted to review them here. Dr. Raisis in particular was completely disinterested in my case; he was never receptive to anecdotes that would help explain my symptoms (in fact, he outright said he had never seen my particular issue in his career, when in fact it is a fairly common issue and relatively easy to see on diagnostic images, according to information I've gathered and surgeons I've met in the meantime). For a few years I defended him, saying that while his bedside manner was terrible, he was a good "mechanic." That changed when I was diagnosed and treated for a rare infection that Dr. Raisis had neglected to warn me was a possibility of the last surgery he had done on me. In fact, Dr. Steege had seen me while I was trying to get a diagnosis, and he correctly guessed what was wrong but dismissed me saying that couldn't be the case. By the time my infection was diagnosed, there was an imminent threat of kidney failure (yes, stemming from a neuro issue!). I would not recommend Dr. Raisis or his colleague Dr. Steege. Terrible customer service, and negligent doctors with little interest in cases they do not find compelling.

Dr. Broudy is the best. Since my last review, I have visited him on several occasions. When I had…read moresome break-through heart symptoms while on my meds, he arranged for me to go through a graded exercise test on a treadmill. After my test was completed, he told me how impressed he was with my results. Of course, the competition is 25-30 years older, but I'll take whatever compliments I can get. If my insurance company let me, I think I would continue to visit Dr. Broudy even if I didn't have a stupid arrhythmia to manage. He's very entertaining. A few visits ago, he was looking through my chart, and asked if I was related to a physician from another state who shares the same last name as me. After telling him we were not related, Dr. Broudy goes on to tell me the story of how the physician was attacked and killed by an alligator. See, entertaining, right?

Other than being a bit inconvenienced, I didn't question it until I received the $150 bill for a doctor visit. I don't have any life threatening diseases or terminal illnesses, so why? Do yourself a favor and find another doctor you'll be much happier.

Only 4-Stars due to the staff being somewhat "pushy" with regards to selling us (wife & I) new glasses. We went in explaining we are retirees on Medicare with Aetna Insurance (supplemental). One of the staff members checked our medical coverage and immediately said we needed to pay $39.00 each for the exams. My wife explained that we shouldn't be charged due to our age and we are diabetic (this exam being our annual check-up), and we've never been charged before. She then checked again and came back and said, "Oh, your exams are free". I understand that LensCrafters is in the business to make money, but being retired and on fixed incomes we cannot afford $400+ for glasses (each). The person assisting us was somewhat reluctant to give us our prescriptions, but my wife was persistent and we obtained copies of our prescriptions. Nice selection of frames with high-class names (Ray Ban, Stetson, etc.), but when you add up the costs of new frames ($188-$200+) and lenses, they quickly become cost prohibitive. As stated in the begging of this review, Dr. Pham was knowledgeable and great to talk with. We'll more than likely be back next year for our annual exams.

She tested me for allergies. Or, I guess her assistant did. That's what I went in for…read more She also tried to give me some more steroid cream for my eczema, after I told her that they don't work. She seemed to be convinced that they were the only thing that would work. I am not convinced. I refused. Once I cut out the foods that I tested positive for allergy-wise, my eczema has gotten light years better. Steroid free. I would have enjoyed my experience more here if she would have listened to me and maybe given me some other options. After all, I paid $255, right? But, ultimately, what I went in for was to get the little scrape-y test done. And I did. And it helped. So that is good.

She was unable to diagnose my non-allergic rhinitis (even after doing her assistant did allergy…read moretesting that turned up negative) and gave me the wrong kind of nose-spray for my condition. She seems like a nice person but I'm unsure as to why doctors in the area recommend her. She gave me no answers even after I complained of chronic sinus infections. I also had to have my immunology testing done at Mayo Clinic, as she felt it wasn't necessary. It absolutely was, given that some of the results showed an issue. I also want to mention that she does make you wait quite awhile to see her. If you're getting allergy testing done by her assistant, she'll see other patients in between. I believe I was at her office for 2 hours.
