After one appointment with her, I was accurately diagnosed, and on a good treatment plan. Part of the treatment that makes you feel better, is that she sincerely cares, and listens carefully to what you are saying to her. She also cares about your whole being, and I do not feel that you can adequately treat someone without knowing about them as a person. She is simply the best.

I have visited 3 other doctors earlier and now and they are horrible. They just make their money on tests and drain the blood.

I was in a deep, deep depression for the year and a half after the botched job, and Dr. Lamberti was able to provide exactly what he said he would. Unlike other plastic surgeons, he doesn't keep a pretentious office or surgery center, it seemed to be a regular hospital but the quality of his work is much better than the flashy practices. He also doesn't get overly personal with patients and sticks to business in a friendly way which I respect. From my experience I would say you can definitely trust him, it is expensive but for me I got my life and identity back which makes it worth it.

I was referred to Dr. Farid @ Optum by my PCP Dr. Parle-Pechera (also @Optum, and also…read morefantastic...). Long story short, she saved my life entirely due to her incredible attention to detail, with a need to always prioritize her patients safety. She uncovered an unruptured brain aneurysm that would have either killed me or left me disabled. My allergies and sinuses had been bothering me for years, and I wanted some advice. She was incredibly attentive and thorough in all of my visits with her. She sent me for a hearing test and and allergy test and while I had some imaging of my sinuses, she went above and beyond normal guidelines and sent me for a CT scan that led to the aneurysm finding, an incidental finding, entirely based on her experience and instincts. Aneurysm has been stented, and I will be glad to have Dr. Farid finally do my Septoplasty. So incredibly lucky to have been referred to Dr. Farid!!! She really takes her time with patients, and is a great listener. I have never ever felt rushed n our many appointments. You are lucky if also found her :)

She discovered within minutes that what another provider had dismissed as routine polyps in my sinus area was much more serious. In the same day, I was in MRI--she discovered it was cancer, and saw me through the entire process of getting me diagnosed, biopsied and nearly 2 years later I am cancer free. Her office staff cares and actually answers the phone, too..... This is the first review I have ever written online, so that kind of says it all.

He was also quick to call in an inhaler when I was having asthma issues without demanding an appointment so I didn't need to go to the ER.

I can live my life without constantly worrying about what limits the RA will put on my ability to just do the things I want. He's smart, funny and very friendly. He explains things well, and keeps you involved in the process. As a side note, he makes me think of Bill Nye. Which is intended as high praise. :)

My experience with Dr. Kramm on March 1, was amazing. I have been seeking a diagnosis of various…read moreconditions, associated with multiple autoimmune disorders for over 4 years. The physicians I visited prior to Dr. Kramm, all provided me good information with regards to relieving my symptoms. However, Dr. Kramm was the first doctor to spend over 40 minutes looking up and diagnosing my prior lab results (blood panels etc.,) and authoritatively providing me with a diagnosis and a series of future tests and steps I needed to take. She was exceptionally kind and patient with me; she explained everything in a way I could understand. I couldn't be more thankful and grateful. I would sing the praises of Dr. Kramm and the University of Washington, Montlake to everyone I know. My visit with Dr. Kramm, greatly exceeded my expectations. She is literally my lifesaver. Knowing she was at the helm of my treatment plan, gave me hope that I could live more normally and longer with my potentially life -threatening disease.

My experience with Dr. Kramm was incredibly disappointing; if I could leave 0 stars, I would…read more Throughout the entire visit, I felt completely unheard and unseen. Due to my complex medical history, three different doctors referred me to a rheumatologist. I chose to schedule an appointment with Dr. Kramm based on her positive online reviews, but I felt unwelcomed from the moment she walked through the door. She barely made eye contact, didn't ask follow-up questions as I explained my symptoms, and refused to look at the medical images I brought to reference. Instead, she simply copied past notes from other providers into my chart and told me she could not do anything more for me, dismissing me back to my previous doctors. She was incredibly short with me, insisted she wasn't the right fit, and even suggested I shouldn't have come to see her in the first place. When I asked for a clear reason why she couldn't help me, she couldn't give me one. I absolutely do not recommend her. Now, it's back to square one.

Dr. Theresa Platz works at Lakeshore Clinic and is a stand-out in every sense. Lakeshore Clinic is getting better, but may be worth 2-3 stars tops. Dr. Platz is hard to get into and the scheduler offers other doctors when they tell you she's not available. I wait, or go elsewhere if need be. Lakeshore has a blood-draw & specimen lab, and X-ray faicility. However they lose X-rays and tell you to come back the following week for a simple blood draw... etc. It's hit & miss whether this place is more convenient than if she had a private office.
