Frewin fluidly mixes sharp analysis with life-coach-like comforts. I mean both terms lovingly. I…read morecame to him a hot mess, from racing emotions of being a new first-time father to heavy grief from death and cancer. After 5 to 6 months seeing Frewin I got some feet under me. 3 things have been especially symbolic. Manny the dog's office presence and Frewin's availability for walking sessions are two great signs of comfort. And when I started to feel better, wanting to "end" our scheduled sessions, Frewin's openness to finding an end point goal for a therapy regime was a genuine sign that he truly cares about personal growth. In unexpected ways I hope I won't see him again, and I also hope I will. No matter if our paths cross again, our conversations will always replay well in the future when I look back on a tender period of my life that Frewin Hermer gracefully helped me navigate. -Mike Leavitt, Vashon, WA

Frewin is a great counselor because of his genuinely warm and caring presence and his ability to…read moreconnect to me as a client. I was worried that going to therapy would be a lonely process due to past experiences of feeling like I am the human with all the problems and my therapist is someone who is perfect and cant relate. With Frewin, however, you really feel like you are talking with someone who understands the challenges and the aches and pains of life. That deep empathy has really been transforming for me and I recommend Frewin for anyone looking to find help and support through their emotional challenges.

I still have issues due to my experience with Dr Ginger. She tore my ureter during my Ureteroscopy…read more During my course of treatment with her in 2013, she told me how women in China lived with stones in their kidneys for their lifetime. She also told me when I was in a lot pain that my pain level didn't align with my Stones location. Only to get into surgery to discover my large stone has dropped to my ureter since my last scan. At every turn she didn't listen to what I said was happening and discounted my feedback. I ended up in the hospital with an infection in my blood due to the tear she caused during surgery. I still have to see a urologist and nephrologist regularly and I always wonder if my kidney would have been able to heal had she not made so many mistakes.

I contacted Swiss Acupuncture as a "test patient" because several friends and family members were…read moreinterested in trying acupuncture, and I wanted to evaluate the clinic before recommending it. When I called, the staff asked for my insurance information and confirmed that my Microsoft insurance covers 24 visits per year. They scheduled an appointment and assured me the clinic was in-network, so everything seemed straightforward. Unfortunately, my actual experience was extremely disappointing. At the front desk, I was greeted by a staff member (her name was Nura(?), per office manager). The very first thing she did was demand my credit card. I politely explained that I prefer to wait until my insurance processes the claim and then pay any remaining balance, if any--this has always been my standard practice. Given the prevalence of credit card fraud, I am not comfortable providing my card upfront. Moreover, this requirement was never disclosed to me prior to my visit. She insisted that I must provide a credit card. I calmly reiterated my position. At that point, she looked at me and said, "Why are you so STUPID?" I was shocked. Regardless of office policy, there is absolutely no justification for speaking to a patient in such a disrespectful and insulting manner. I responded that if I am considered "stupid," then this is clearly not the right place for me, and I was prepared to leave. When the doctor returned, I asked if I could briefly speak with them. The front desk staff aggressively intervened, stating that I had no right to speak to the doctor directly and that everything had to go through her. She repeatedly interrupted me and would not allow a normal conversation.Given the tension created by the front desk staff, it no longer made sense for the appointment to proceed. Both the doctor and I agreed that canceling the visit was a reasonable and appropriate solution. I specifically asked whether any cancellation fee would apply, as I had noticed a notice regarding such charges. The doctor clearly confirmed that no fee would be charged.At that point, I had had enough. When the office manager returned, I informed her that I would not proceed with the appointment and would not be returning to the clinic in the future. At 4:17pm,  I received a message stating, "Your appointment with Min Chen on Friday, April 10, 2026 at 4:00 PM was canceled by yourself." The wording of this message was both inaccurate and concerning, as it seemed to deliberately frame the situation in a way that could shift responsibility onto me. However, the conduct of the front desk raised serious concerns. It appeared that their actions were aimed at creating a record that could later be used to justify a cancellation charge, despite the circumstances being beyond my control.This experience was unacceptable. One individual's behavior completely undermined the professionalism of the entire clinic. I would strongly caution others against coming here--encountering such hostility and disrespect is simply not worth it.
