I have not been impressed yet with the quality of their care.

Do NOT ever let them record you for their notes because those notes and imformation can be seen by the billing department so not sure how they can violate Hepa but everyone does. Also, if the doctor asks you a question or notices something they just randomly mark it down as a diagnosis and then they bill you more as complex. For example, if you have acne but you came in for another reason and the doctor asks if you have acne and you say - I don't want to be treated for it - literally you say that, they can then write down a diagnosis of acne in your chart and charge you more for the visit. I don't think if the doctor notices something like that which you don't want to be treated for that they have the right to diagnose you without telling you. Make sure if you get asked to tell them that you don't want a "diagnosis". I feel like they are looking for diagnoses to make you complex case. I do not take any medications and have no chronic conditions but somehow UW Med says I am "complex" but no other doctor's practice has ever said that. Be very aware of what you say and what they write down is my recommendation.

Highest recommendation. No caveats…read more I've been a patient of Greenlake Primary Care for 30+ years. Dr Krista Hodne is my current doctor. (Previously, Dr Busch and Dr Starkebaum.) I'm a cancer survivor, among other stuff. Nothing about my care is easy, straightforward. Some of my troubles have taken years to bring under control. Dr Hodne is the best partner, life coach, and caregiver anyone can ask for. She and her team have gone above and beyond for me, time and again. Two strategies are proven to improve patient outcomes. Constructive long-term relationships, obviously. Emphasizing wellness over treating disease. Knowing this, I enthusiastically supported Greenlake's switch to a concierge model. The concierge model is a rejection of our nation's immoral, inefficient, profiteering fee-for-service model. It's a return to our Rockwell-esque notions of the family doctor. It allows doctors to spend as much time as needed with a patient, to do research, to coordinate all the referrals, to do battle with insurers, etc. No one is getting rich in family practice. Or running an independent clinic. Do the math, read the news. The providers at Greenlake Primary Care are making huge sacrifices. Just to keep the lights on. Just to deliver actual healthcare. Yes, concierge requires memberships to make it work. Until our nation adopts Medicare For All, it's the best available option. I chose to be a member, despite living off credit cards (at the time), because I wanted to get better. I chose correctly. You can too.

We had various instructors on different subjects and the Q&A got answered properly. Case studies were shown and as I mentioned each day, 4 hrs of hands on scanning with patients with and without disease. I know that PVI would put a great course together. My first experience with the TCD/TCI course showed me that PVI really put lecture and hands on training is worth the price.

So this marks the first time I've "updated" a Yelp review. While SCCA would in theory top the list…read moreof places I'd most want to upgrade to a HIGHER rating, its scheduling department's ongoing incompetence once again caused enough stress and inconvenience today to warrant this downgrade to just one star. Quite frankly, I'd give the scheduling department (at least the one I'm stuck dealing with) ZERO stars if given the option. In my 10+ years as a patient, I've communicated with almost as many schedulers -- and perhaps one or two of them have been good at their jobs. The one working when I first started treatment was so bad that after I once vented about her on a support board, a local person PM'd me to ask if I was talking about S***; she knew exactly who I was referring to (even though I didn't name names), and said the lady was notorious for her poor communication skills. Well, at this point, I actually MISS that ten-years-ago scheduler. At least she never flat-out lied to me -- unlike the one two years ago who said it was ok when I questioned why my routine CT scan wasn't scheduled (see previous review), only for me to find out several weeks later, on the day I received the results for my bone scan, that yes, I DID also need the CT scan (which I then had to have at the last minute, and wait an extra day to get results for -- as if regular "scanxiety" isn't bad enough without being made worse by lazy schedulers who can't be bothered to follow up on valid patient concerns). After that 2018 incident, you'd best believe that I let SCCA know how I felt about it. I was then given some empty promise by Patient Relations that it "wouldn't happen again", they'd "communicate better", blah blah. Because I'm a forgiving person, I thanked them and decided to let it go. I still have to initiate setting up all my appointments, despite always being told that the schedulers will "contact me" (and I'm actually ok with scheduling things myself; I do so on a regular basis with my GP's office, which has a specific portal for this, but apparently SCCA isn't yet that advanced. But why bother claiming that the schedulers will "contact me"?). Still, things were more or less fine, until December of 2019. That's when I contacted my onc's current scheduler to set up my every-three-months Lupron injection, which I knew was due in January. She responded within a reasonable time frame, and told me that the shot was scheduled for 1/4. Right away, I noticed that this seemed too early; it's been made very clear to me over the years that these shots should be given every 12 weeks (though there is about a week's worth of flexibility; it doesn't have to be 100% exact). But my most recent injection occurred on October 21st; and it shouldn't take a rocket scientist to see that 10/21 to 1/4 = not 12 weeks. It should take about 30 seconds to actually make the effort to count (or check a calendar, for crying out loud) and see that officially it's only 10 weeks and 5 days. I emailed the scheduler with my concern. I pointed out that it seemed too early. I gave her the specific date of 10/21 as my last injection, so she had that information handy. Two days later, she replied; she mentioned the week's flexibility and said (and I quote; see attached) "it is okay for you to receive on 1/4". I knew it still wasn't quite even 11 weeks; and I certainly hadn't forgotten the incident two years ago. However, I decided to give this person -- who, after all, is paid to be thorough and accurate, and not make mistakes -- the benefit of the doubt and not question her further. I mean, I shouldn't need to be in a position where I'm asking "ARE YOU SUUUURE?" each time a member of my so-called "care team" relays a message to me. Especially not AFTER I'd handed this person her own error on a silver platter by pointing out the early date, and given her ample time and opportunity to follow up on and fix the error if needed. Fast-forward to today, January 4th. I don't blame SCCA for running behind, and for waiting until 20 minutes after my scheduled appointment to send me back to a room. I DO, however, question why they waited until after I'd been sent back and had my vitals taken, to inform me that they couldn't actually give me the injection today... Because it was too early. LIVID doesn't begin to cover how I felt after hearing this. While lazy and irresponsible of them, I'll forgive SCCA for not bothering to call, or at least tell me when I checked in, that I wouldn't get the shot today; at least the infusion nurse who gave me the news seemed genuinely regretful, and made a visible (and appreciated) effort to help. There is NO excuse, though, to be flat-out lied to and misinformed AGAIN by a scheduler who can't be bothered to do her job. It's infuriating. It's ridiculous. And SCCA's patients deserve better. I'll close with a line from my first review -- In short: I'd suggest looking elsewhere for treatment.

However, I wanted to take the time to write this review to recognize the compassionate care she received here. My wife's primary RN was exceptionally caring, empathetic, and personable. She took the time to engage with my wife beyond just talking about her treatment. More importantly, she was genuine. She wasn't just going through the motions. She really cared about my wife. It made sense that we later saw her plaque on the wall for an award she recently won for providing such great service... and we made sure to nominate her again. We also truly appreciated the kindness of our doctor, the two ladies who manned the check-in counter, our nutritionist, our social worker, etc. Lastly, we loved the views of the lake from the waiting rooms and the free food/drinks in the nutrition areas on each floor. There were minor negative aspects here and there, as with anything. For example, there were a few times where we had to wait at the pharmacy for 30 to 40 minutes for meds. But overall, we are grateful for the kindness and compassion of the staff here.
