I suffered the humiliation of failing to be able to perform with (5) consecutive new relationships. I was at a low point and very disappointed that a very important part of a man's role in sexual intimacy was now over for me. But then I took a leap-of-faith at one more try and made an appointment with Dr Katherine Kass and intimacy healing began. Dr Kass immediately put me at ease and started a comprehensive interview about a range of topics all relating to my overall health, mentally and physically. From that information, she explained what it meant to my condition and how "we" would fix it. It was a team effort with therapy provided in the office and what I can do at home. My Nurse Therapist Leslie is an outstanding practitioner of her specialty. She took plenty of time to carefully explain everything she was doing. Like Dr Kass, Leslie has the unique ability to put me completely at ease throughout. I trust her implicitly to take care of me and all my concerns. She is kind and understanding at all times. In addition, Patient Coordinator Rebecca is very welcoming as soon as I enter the office and is a great representative at the front desk. What a great crew, what a great organization. I have already recommended Dr Kass to several individuals, male and female and will continue to do so.

A good friend referred me to Dr. Cole almost three years ago and I have been seeing her since. I…read moream so grateful to my friend and Dr. Cole. my GO of 25+ years was moving away and I had always wanted my primary focus to be natural/non pharmaceutical. I love her method of requesting more in depth bloodwork at least yearly (every 6 mo the first three times when we started) to look for areas where your health may need more attention and offering diet, lifestyle and supplement support to improve. I like data! It makes so much sense. And she is professional, kind, friendly and easy to talk to!

I have been working with Dr. Cole for several years. She is a compassionate and detailed physician…read morewho investigates down to the depths of the root cause of an issue(s), not just the symptoms. Dr. Cole is able to provide comprehensive care to treat the whole body, easing it back into balance in a healthy, less toxic way. For me, she offered naturopathic alternatives to traditional medicine to help me with my complicated and intertwining conditions (auto-immune, adrenal, hormonal, weight, and others). Dr. Cole always listens to me, provides scientific reasons for what I am experiencing, and works to provide a natural way to heal my body. She provides a wonderful mix of compassion, hard science (labs, results, etc.), and alternative healing methods/medicines. Recently, I particularly appreciate her additional services around genetic testing; providing a deeper analysis of DNA genetic results, which indicated genetic variations that can be the root cause of health issues. This allows us to make a plan to offset high risk areas.

I saw Dr. Brunsvold for many years and was overall satisfied. However, recently I went to see her…read morebecause I noticed some specific weight gain in areas I hadn't experienced before and chronic heartburn. She told me that I needed to see a nutrition counselor and lose weight. I have overall healthy eating habits and work out 5-6 times per week, so it didn't make sense to me that I would have this type of weight gain or chronic heartburn. I got a second opinion and discovered that I have the worst case of h.pylori she had EVER seen in her entire career. In addition, she dug a little deeper and discovered that my thyroid is very very low functioning. With some appropriate treatment, I'm on the road to recovery. I'm beyond disappointed that Dr. Brusvold chalked my symptoms up to being overweight. It was an easy "diagnosis" and it was wrong and has severely impacted my health and well being. I would not recommend this physician.

Dr. Karmali is the best doctor I've ever had, and I've had great doctors in the past. I visited her…read moretowards the end of last year as a new patient and she spent about 30 minutes getting to know me before checking everything that I asked her to. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed every step of the way, talking me through everything. Dr. Karmali is extremely kind, attentive, gentle, humble, and calming. She went to UW Med School, so extra points for that! Another cool thing is that Swedish uses MyChart, an online personal health record system where you can see your medical history, appointments, messages from your doctor, etc. Strangely, when I called to make an appointment, the receptionist said that Dr. Karmali did not have any openings until January 2015. However, when I went online to MyChart, I saw multiple openings between now and the end of the year. I ended up making an online appointment with Dr. Karmali for early December and cancelling my phone-made appointment with another doctor at Swedish. I am so excited to go see Dr. Karmali again soon!

After my motorcycle accident in 2009 Dr. Karmali checked up on me and worked with my medical records from Harborview to continue with my pain management care. To this day she still works closely with me on this care and has been very good at keeping an eye out for my health and well being and continues to work with my pain management doctor at Harborview. Dr. Karmali set me up with MyChart (available to all Swedish patients) when I moved back to WA and through that I am able to discuss issues with her without having to make an appointment to go into the clinic (I'm already there enough as it is!) and she is quick to get back to me usually same day but definitely within 24 hours. She even responds on her days off and to me, that is complete dedication and proves just how much she cares about her patients. I have recommended her to a couple of friends and they love her as well. Dr. Karmali is very knowledgeable and caring. If she is unsure of something she will investigate the issue to ensure that you get the best possible care. She is just an amazing doctor and an even more amazing person.
