My children and I have been going to this clinic for years, we started back when they were still…read moreowned Beth McQuinn. For the most part, all the doctors that we've seen have been amazing, the exceptions being a few times that my children's visits were not recorded correctly and still have yet to be fixed even though I still have the documentation from those visits. Before they became Stay Well Family Medicine and moved to Colby, they were on Broadway and their support staff were always warm and friendly, responsive to patient questions and concerns, and proactive at problem-solving any issues brought to their attention. Now, however, since they've become Stay Well Family Medicine, their support staff leaves an immense amount of quality customer service to be desired. Case in point: I logged into our patient portal through Charm yesterday to double check my children's appointment times for their well-child checks, and noticed that my daughter's name was spelled incorrectly, and it was not reflecting that she's been seen since 2019. So I called, which happened to be after hours, and left a voicemail with my concerns, asking about the issue that I noticed. I received a call back today from their front desk lady, I don't recall her name. But by the sound of her voice, she's the regular receptionist for them. She let me know that on her side she can see that my daughter has an appointment and wasn't sure why I can't see it on my side and proceeded to tell me that I need to call Charm to ask them why. I respectfully voiced my concern about asking the patient to call on an issue that has to do with their tech since I've worked at a health clinic before it is never the patient's responsibility to call tech-support to ask about a tech issue, that it is the clinic's responsibility to do (please bare in mind, I was truly kind, not just a perspective thing: calm voice, kind words, didn't raise my tone. Since I've been on the other side, I get communication with a disgruntled patient/parent can be challenging, so I was as gentle as I could be with my concerns). I acknowledged to her that I understand it's not her fault but I would request that they look into it please and let me know what's going on - if there was some kind of an issue with the records not being uploaded into my daughters chart. I voiced concern about not seeing her records and that s been an issue in the past too. I didn't even get the chance to ask her about the spelling of the name before the receptionist cut me off saying it wasn't their job to do it and passed me off to a doctor because she got so frustrated with the conversation with me. I then spoke to Dr. blow who looked into it - turns out it was the spelling of my daughter's name. Dr Blow sent me a new link to get the problem fixed, which was thankfully an easy resolution. I thanked her and said I appreciate that she helped me problem solve through it. and also attempted to acknowledge again that I understood it wasn't her receptionist's fault this happened, however I don't feel that it was my responsibility to have to call Charm to fix it. Dr Blow then proceeded to snap at me that "not everybody has the same tech talents as other people and so it doesn't fall to them to problem solve tech-support, that's the patient's responsibility" and then she wouldn't even let me talk after that and said "well, we'll see you next Tuesday. Thanks so much for calling. Have a great day, bye." I was dumbfounded. Unfortunately even though we love the doctor that we normally see, Dr. Sambrano, and have been seeing her for several years now, based on this experience, which has been horrible, it seems like we're going to end up having to find a different naturopathic clinic to go to. If they can fix their customer service Issues this would be a great clinic to be seen at. Sadly, with the current way they're treating patients, I can't recommend it any longer to family and friends.

What a fantastic place!…read more Upon recommendations from neighbors, I ventured up to Everett from Mill Creek to take my kid in for persistent vomiting. We made an 11:50 appointment online, and were called back into the room at 11:37. From registration to the medical care, I felt as though everyone was friendly and welcoming. The first thing I noticed, though, was how spotless the facility was! Jennifer F. was our RN, and she was thorough, informative, calm, and great at explaining everything to my young daughter. Then came in Dr. Dane, who had the perfect personality for a pediatric MD: funny, energetic, patient, and kind. He thoroughly examined my daughter and thought outside of the box in regards to what could be causing her problems. Both spent a lot of time with us. I could tell that Dr. Dane was really thinking about everything, and trying to make sure he wasn't leaving any possibilities off of the table. We left feeling reassured, and happy with the plan they gave us. Going forward, this will be our go-to place for after hours pediatric care. Please note that it's highly advised that you make an appointment prior to arrival, or you may not be seen if they are inundated with patients. They make this very clear on their website. Only same-day appointments are available, but you can choose from 4 locations and they open the appointments for the day in the early hours of morning. Very happy with our care today. Thanks, Jennifer and Dr. Dane!

This provider was a god send to my whole family and we are very much looking forward to him…read morereturning to medicine. We need him back. Ive been through SEVERAL providers since my last appointment with him. Its been a nightmare to put it mildly. Dr Grierson is one of the rare few left who genuinely care about his patients and listens. He takes the time to listen to what you have to say and what your needs are. He pays attention to your medical history and if you have family members in his care as well he pays attention to the genetic aspect also. I remember my very last appointment with him (not knowing it was my last ) he asked at the end if I needed any referrals put in or tests ordered.... I wish I would've asked for a few then not knowing that the providers I would be seeing for years to come would laugh at me or ignore me when I suggest a certain lab test or a referral to a specialist. With Grierson you get to be a part of your care plan.

I just want to show my support for Dr Grierson and I can say that having him as my physician for…read morealmost 15 years was a privilege. I began seeing him for some serious issues with early onset psoriatic arthritis as well as my regular primary care physician in the early 2000's within our hometown of Stanwood. For approx ten years he provided me with excellent care and referrals to specialists and I always felt like he genuinely cared about his patients and that my well being mattered to him. I can recall that he had delivered so many babies in the town and surrounding area that he devoted an entire wall of photos with happy parents and their newborns. He loved people and was always a pleasure to see. I always felt I could be open and honest to trust him with any issue I chose to share with him. Eventually the clinic in Stanwood had been bought out by a larger healthcare company (as most have over the years) and I lost touch with where Dr Grierson had gone following his departure. So after about 3 years luck was on my side and I had heard that he was once again practicing just a few miles away in Marysville. Although the quality care and help he gave me was always present, the corporate care structure is a little different and not for the better in my opinion, but I was grateful to be able to get in to see him again and I still remain a client today. I just want to thank him and say that no matter what the circumstances, he's an exceptional healthcare professional and a great person. If he returns to practice at some point I would be one of the many patients trying to get onto his patient list because he's a valuable asset to the healthcare industry and part of what makes the American healthcare system a little more tolerable. I know many would stand in solidarity with Dr Grierson and I would be proud to let anyone know that he's one of the best now just as I have for many years. If there's a clinic, corporation or medical practice that's lucky enough to have him they better not think twice because good doctors that are compassionate and humane don't come around too much anymore and it saddens me to think that he's not doing his life's work, especially if he isn't ready to retire He is the rare gem that should be appreciated and grateful to have him work in their clinic or community and we need him. If you see this Dr Grierson I thank you for all the years I was fortunate enough to have a doctor that was kind and informative on any issue I was concerned about. That isn't common in very many healthcare clinics today. The corporations and pharmaceutical companies have a stranglehold and monopoly on the care we get and profit always comes first in this country,l. Healthcare is a matter of life and death and therefore profit motives should not exist within that construct I hope you know you're important to so many people. We need you and we care about you as much as you've shown that you care about us, your colleagues and community and the well being of your community. I hope you come out of this with the dignity and respect you have truly earned doing good works for those who truly need it. Wishing you all the best and I know it's a little selfish in part, but I really hope to see you practicing again.

The personal service, dedication, and persistence we get from Dr. Shlafer is unparalleled, and far above the norm. This is why we recommend him to anyone that will listen. With four kids, we have seen our share of medical issues and emergencies. Dr. Shlafer is humble, yet confident, and he is always laser focused on the best interest of his patient. He won't always tell you what you want to hear, but instead he will provide you with a balanced, researched, and heart felt medical opinion. He will be your best advocate in your biggest times of need. He has amassed a wealth of knowledge and first hand experiences throughout his career, yet he is always willing to admit if something is outside of his scope. Dr. Shlafer maintains a strong network of the best doctors in the Northwest, and will never leave a patient hanging when in need. If he can't help, he will get you to the front of the line with someone who can. Personally, we look to Dr. Shlafer as a friend and an extension of our family. Our children look forward to visiting Dr. Shlafer, and love his great sense of humor. After over 16 years we still hear new jokes every time we visit, and no one can get a smile out of a sick kid like he can. Sincerely, Catherine and Jesse Thompson (and the whole family!)

If your child has ASD, do not bring them here. Not only have I noticed weird looks while waiting in…read morethe lobby by some of the nurses.. but yesterday I took my daughter in to check on something, and it required a urine sample. My daughter is 5 and not fully potty trained, some basic research would tell you that this is very typical behavior in children with ASD, especially of her level. I say this because: Looks I can ignore, but one of the nurses had the audacity to walk into the room and say "A little old mom".. those exact words. With FULL confidence and little attitude. I immediately was shocked and when they came back to the room, I (as politely as I could) said I was going to take my daughter somewhere else and that it is extremely unprofessional (and rude!) to say something like that. She then tried to say "I'm sorry you feel that way" to which I said "no, you took a direct jab at me and that's not right. Especially as a nurse." I explained that my daughter is learning at her pace, her father and I ask/offer every single day (with much praise) to have her use the toilet, but we aren't going to force her.. that's more psychologically damaging than what we are currently doing. She did try to come and apologize as I was complaining to the front office, but the damage was done. I did my best to not raise my voice and even ended on a "I hope you have a good day" to everyone, like I did every single time I came in before that.. It was a younger pregnant lady, but she is well old enough to know better. So take that as you will, I HIGHLY do NOT recommend this pediatricians office to anyone, especially children on the spectrum. Thank you for reading.
