I genuinely feel like she wants me to be living my best life and can give me practical ways to get there. I struggle with anxiety and depression and after we tried a few medication strategies, she referred me to a psychiatrist. I really appreciated that she was willing to try a few things on me, but wasn't too proud to refer me to a specialist once things weren't working as planned. I have also had a few anxiety-related symptoms and felt like she handled them delicately and in a way that could help relieve this anxiety. I also really like the online portal. When something small comes up that I am concerned about, I am always able to get a quick answer- whether it's advice, prescriptions, or a visit scheduled. I also like being able to see our appointment notes easily. I definitely feel like she is my advocate. If something makes me uncomfortable or anxious she always has another suggestion or a way to make things better. With my physical exams, I feel really at ease. She is gentle and continues to check in with me and provide me with information. I like how she provides suggestions as we go and lets me know areas that I am healthy and areas to watch. I feel like we never miss anything and that I can be very honest with her about my physical and mental health.

Highly recommended over the regular Dr's office.

SOLIDCORE @ TOTEM LAKE KIRKLAND…read more Parking is available in the Village at Totem Lake. You can park near Lululemon or Joe's Burgers, and there's usually plenty of open spots. You can also find street parking right outside of solidcore. Everything is first-come, first-serve, and all parking is free. If you're doing street parking, it's limited to two hours. This was my first time trying solidcore, and I signed up through ClassPass. Booking a class was a little challenging since most sessions were already full, but you can set reminders to be notified if a spot opens up. I honestly relied on this because a lot of people tend to drop last minute. Today, I took the Starter 50 class, which is designed for beginners, and I had Coach Helen. One thing to note is that you can't enter the building until 10 minutes before your class. I believe this is for safety purposes, so I'd recommend timing your arrival accordingly. Once inside, the space is a bit smaller than I expected. They have lockers, bathrooms, and a changing area. I didn't notice any showers, so I'm not entirely sure if they offer them. There's only one studio, and classes happen one at a time. When I walked in, there were already quite a few people in the room. Coach Helen was super nice and very talkative throughout the workout, which I actually appreciated. She explained each exercise clearly, making it simple and easy to follow along. Overall, it was a great first experience, and I'm really excited to continue trying solidcore with other coaches this week!

My experience was pretty good, but unfortunately overshadowed by them losing my prescription…read more With all the identity theft going on and I have a strong opinion about protecting privacy, and them losing my prescription was a big red flag to me. I'm sure there's a HIPAA violation somewhere there, but I'm no expert. I personally didn't find their office very organized. Everything was crammed in a small area, with files sticking out and easily accessible to anyone. I think I began to lose confidence when I found out the 877 fax number on their website is not the correct one, after the fact. I even asked them about the fax number when I called in. I'm not sure why they didn't feel an urgency to fix that simple issue since people will reference that fax number (like me) to have their provider fax prescriptions and other information with PERSONAL information on them. Maybe most people aren't as worried as I am, but my trust was quickly lost when that snafu happened I gave them two stars because My masseuse was actually pretty good. She was attentive and asked me my preferences before our session which I think is a best practice my previous three never did. I prefer supporting small businesses, however I draw the line if the small business doesn't value security. In this case there are legal ramifications for relaxed security practices. I'm sure it was an honest mistake, but I don't find mistakes around personal privacy to be a light matter. I hope they revisit and reevaluate their office procedures sooner rather than later.

This isn't westernized "McDonalds" qigong, this is the genuine practice, the teachings passed down by Chinese masters of the art. As a beginner, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. Vadim made me feel immediately welcome, patiently reviewing foundational practices like Ba Duan Jin. I'm thrilled he emphasizes standing practices (e.g. Zhan zhuang), deceptively powerful exercises often overlooked by lesser teachers. He's great at demonstrating proper form, explaining WHY we're learning particular practices, and patiently correctly mistakes in our form. After my last class (a real workout for body and mind!) we got tea and talked about life. I'm extremely grateful for the opportunity to learn from such an accomplished and generous teacher. Hope to see you in class one day!

My son had previously had a great experience with Premier Physical Therapy in Kirkland, so I gave them a call before my surgery to schedule an appointment. I was fortunate to be paired with Ceili Kacmarcik as my physical therapist -- she was fantastic! Our first session focused on creating a recovery plan to help me return to normal activity. Ceili was friendly, upbeat, and professional, and I immediately looked forward to working with her. She asked thoughtful questions, really listened, and made me feel confident in the journey ahead. At our second appointment, we began the real work. Ceili helped me set realistic, achievable goals that steadily built my confidence. Over the next eight weeks, I met every goal we set. I'm now back to walking four miles several times a week and have returned to the gym on my non-walking days. Before we wrapped up, Ceili provided me with a personalized daily routine to help me stay fit and maintain my progress. I'm incredibly grateful for her guidance and support throughout my recovery. If you're looking to get your life back after surgery or injury, I highly recommend giving Ceili a call!
