Both my mother and I have gone to the ER recently and have had great experiences. The nurses were…read moreattentive and kind, the care and knowledge feel direct and throughly explained. A bit surprised and sad to read the recent reviews when my families experiences have been so positive and comforting. My mom had an urgent surgery, was put at the top of the schedule, and monitored closely throughout the night. I went in with chest pain and was seen right away(obviously), they took the time to help calm and comfort me. I know everyone has experiences and they're right to share those, but please remember most of the time people only review when it's negative. It's common to have negative and even neglect medical experiences and care, but that was not my experience.

Nurses have bedside matter. Doctors are very informative. We are not left in the dark. I trust they will take good care of my husband. So far they are very attentive. I recommend coming in the morning or very early in morning. It is more stress free. If you have a smartphone, you can do registration on your smartphone or tablet. It helps keep patients from getting disturbed especially if they are unwell. I completed it for him so he can get focused on just getting care for. It is not fancy hospital but a great one for less stress.

I had a disappointing experience with Dr. McCallister during an urgent care visit. She came across…read moreas rude, did not listen attentively, and made minimal eye contact throughout the appointment. Despite me clearly stating that my back was hurting after falling a couple of feet onto wooden stairs, she dismissed my concerns and said I only had bruises. I had to strongly advocate for myself to receive an X-ray, which I felt was reasonable given the nature of the fall. Additionally, she frequently used medical terminology without explaining it in layman's terms. Even when I indicated that I did not understand what she meant, she did not pause to clarify. A friend who works in healthcare had come with me and luckily explain the terminology to me afterwards Finally, while she verbally advised me to avoid heavy lifting and sudden movements, when I asked, she refused to provide any form of written note or documentation for my employer. Overall, I left feeling unheard, unsupported, and dissatisfied with the level of care and communication during this visit.

He's only 10 years old and they told us that they could not see him because if he was a minor, this was the MMA that said this this was not the doctor herself or him, but the MA said that they can't do anything about that because they don't treat for that kind of age. My son was already scared enough as it was and for him to have to ride around with his father with a tower holding pressure to it and bleeding and have ice on his face is not correct. I'm very disappointing in this place. I hope the management can. fix this problem. I will not for no one to this place at all is terrible that the company supposed to be before the people to help them in medical field yet you can't even treat my son with two stitches. That's all he needed. I'm very disappointed in this company and will never look to come to this company ever again for help or trust my children or my loved ones with this place thank you to Mary Bridge Hospital that treated by Son and took good care of him. I will not show the pictures of the open wound, but it's only closed up. Add 100 you get a -100 with me I hope people see this and take it serious and really choose not to use them as a provider go to a different place. I don't care if it's any other Indigo get away from me because they can't treat a kids for that that tells a lot about a company.

I am 34 years old and just starting my journey on hospice care. Despite a year-long and strict "no…read morehospital trips under any circumstances" came to Franciscan Hospice House because my pain was unmanageable, which I have previously gone to ER's to aid in getting some relief, but was the only met with indifferent, yet judgy doctors who labeled me as a drug seeker, and didn't care if there was anything wrong with me. Especially considering I have an issue where I metabolize medication too quickly, making it far less effective, and making me need higher doses of everything, which does not go over well in the ERs. I had to become used to the fact that if I were going to an ER visit or a hospitalization, I was going to end up going home in worse condition then when I had gotten there, pain-wise. I was told that this place would be different in hospice is different, but I still expected it when I came here a couple nights ago. I was met with absolutely nothing but the opposite of everything I just described. All this time, I've been wondering where all of the good-hearted people, who got into medicine to help others to heal their pain, judgement free, had gone, and I seem to have stumbled upon them right here at the Franciscan hospice House. I can't say enough how amazing each and every person who works here is, and I wish I could recognize it in a way where I'm able to give back some of what they've given me, but posting my truth on the on this internet website will just have to do. All my dozens of ER visits and hospitalizations I have experienced in my adult life, made me feel like I was doing something wrong when I needed and asked for some kind of pain control, to the point where I was ashamed to even ask. I unlearned that behavior here, and I don't know if I could have gone on without that changing. I found no nefarious actions, or questionable intentions in anything that is done here by any of the people who work here, it's just good people. I was unaware they still existed. It's like finding a freaking unicorn on a bit stunned and unsure of what to do next, but this seems like the right step. I almost don't want to make any sudden movements and in fear that it might spook them and everything will go back to the hellish ways that I'm used to. If you're considering getting their services, my only advice is stop waiting and just do it, because for me, nothing but good came out of it. Your life might seem like that too, but if anyone were to pull out some more good parts of life, it would be them, and it would be here (I'm actually still a patient here as of right meow

I usually do not write reviews, but this time is different. I'm in Hospice at Franciscan Heritage…read moreHospice house on Bridgeport in Tacoma I noticed the most Hospice comments come from survivors. I wanted to make this review while I'm still around. The staff here is by far the finest I've ever dealt with, the nurses are wonderful, compassionate and empathetic and understanding with a great sense of humor. The clinician is really good at what she does as always available. The chef David, comes in every day and prepares what I want the way I want it and the food is as good as I've ever had. All the staff, including the nursing assistance housekeeping, have all been great. I couldn't say more. The facility is the best that it could be (well beyond a 5 star rating)

He is respectful, kind, compassionate, exceptionally knowledgeable, a good teacher, and has worked diligently to provide excellent resources for my assessments and therapy needs. He listens to me! I wish I could keep him as one of physicians after the L&I claim is closed! Tasha-MA knows my story, creates positive relationships, is kind, professional, and bends over backwards to meet my needs. Having been an RN for 35 years and active in clinic leadership, I know what it takes to manage a specialty clinic and the gamut of individual patient needs, stressors, & resources. I have also worked as a nurse and as a patient with many doctors, and Dr Copper is one of my favorites. I am grateful for the excellent care I've received from Dr Cooper's clinic.

While this is also a review for Washington Gastroenterology, as my Dr. works there and also does…read morethe procedures here, I'll leave a rating here. My doctor was Dr. Agrawal, and the procedure was a colonoscopy. I received very thorough instructions on prep, as well as what to expect time-wise for each segment of care on the day of the procedure. I was sent texts with links to videos on what to do throughout the week to prepare. They allow you to take a rideshare company to and from the procedure vs. insisting you find somebody who can be free for a couple of hours during a workday (might not be the case if you have an end of day appointment, as you do need to stay longer in recover if you do this). All the staff were nice. The location was clean and well-kept from what I could see. No pain or discomfort afterwards, the post op nurse gave me clear discharge instructions and kept me updated on when I could call a ride to the minute, Dr Agrawal came and discussed my results with me, and another staff member walked me down to my ride to ensure I was off safely. While this isn't a place you're going to say "I loved it and can't wait to go back!" I'm glad I was encouraged to do a colonoscopy and not count on the negative Cologuard results with it's 8% false negatives (I've had friends dying of colon cancer, rates are up) and now I feel safe to not stress about it for the next decade unless I get symptoms.

I was told that some patients do have that reaction and it just comes on without a warning. He was put in his waiting room, I.V. was able to be put in. He had his procedure done, and by the way they are Nurse Anesthetists, and are very much certified and well trained, not like a previous reviewer stated. Dr Donner did his procedure. He was checked on and made sure he was fine, before and after, I also received a follow-up call the next day. Great Great service and care.
