Dr. Robin Moore saved my life many years ago... by diagnosing something that went undetected, and…read moreun-diagnosed by many physicians before her. To summarize, in 1999 I was a 15 year old high school athlete. One day playing soccer, my vision disappeared for 5-10 minutes. This became a routine thing every 2-3 days, without any given trigger or correlation. I went to my family practice doctor, allergist, neurologist, ophthalmologist, and finally a neurosurgeon (too see if it was related to an eye issue I was born with). I was given many answers of what it "could" be.... Over a 2-3 year period, I tried 5-6 different medications, all with limited efficacy, and a plethora of side effects. Eventually I learned to deal with the issue, as the medications weren't worth the high cost, or side effects. Life was rough, but manageable (going blind every 2-3 days without warning). After a single visit with Dr. Robin Moore in 2004, she was able to help identify what was causing my visual issue. And more importantly, what was triggering the issue. I was able to change my habits, change my diet, and the issue has all but dissipated since. I have not seen Dr. Robin Moore since my single 2004 visit (I moved to LA after graduating UW), but I will soon visit her, to thank her. That one visit changed my life. I've told my story many times. I'm still very much in debt to her! And very much appreciate her help!

If I wasn't so devastated I should have challenged the charges to my insurance. Some years later I took an online course from dr murinova that was completely lacking in privacy and focused on trying to make flowers bloom and kittens chase butterflies using biofeedback to cure your migraines. I'm sorry but this was a complete turnoff, finally lessons learned and I have given up of any sort of meaningful treatment from this clinic.

Not only did he do a great job on my craniotomy (no small feat!), he made me feel human and was so compassionate. I cannot recommend him and his team enough! After surgery he explained well what happened and his office answered my questions quickly via MyChart. No one else I'd trust with my actual brain!

Dr Cobbs is supposed to be a brain tumor expert. His first question was "So why are you here to see…read moreme today?" He didn't pick up on my sarcasm, when I chuckled, told him it was a worry when a specialist doesn't know why a patient is there to see them, then I said, "Well, we could start with the brain tumor." He told me that my chronic headaches, which sometimes feel like my eye is being pushed out, was unrelated to my tumor, that my vision changes were unrelated to my tumor, the frontal lobe where my brain tumor is has nothing to do with higher level math or communication. He told me that he could be 100% certain it was a benign meningioma from imaging. He said he could be certain the other tumors were unrelated: three breast tumors with discordant pathology/radiology, a contrast enhanced extradural spinal mass, and Drs trying to determine if I have a single adrenal tumor or bilateral, and others. He didn't ask me about any other symptoms - such as the toe twitching that recently started. My husband started worrying when he started to repeatedly beat me at Carcassonne, which used to be 1/6 games. My son thought the tumor explained some of my personality changes. The worst, Dr Cobbs claimed that 10% of all women have this type of brain tumor! My husband joined us (via FB messenger). Afterwards, he said, "Did he just say that 10% of all women have meningioma brain tumors? I'll have to look that up." Both my husband and I have done scientific research. I even wrote to Dr Cobbs to make sure we got his message right (attached). In the communication, he then said that higher level math was in the area of concern. I'm an applied mathematician. Women beware!!!!

This visit was tied to my teeth so to speak. I wanted them to be happy and so I checked on them. To my Delight (and my teeth- I love them so much!), I found a lovely, peaceful, collaborative and DIVERSE-ly skilled TEAM! Who were able to give me a WORLD CLASS on how to: check in on my teeth (regularly), let The Experts! Take a look to see, and then make recommendations for me and my teeth! I was given at least 3 that suited me! I also, checked in- on how to pay for this? Or? Since I know it can be expensive and an extra! Cost I may not be able to afford at this time. Since I live in the Wonderful! PACNW, and in Washington State in particular, I had OPTIONS I could sit with and utilize based on my current S(ocio) E(conomic) S(tatement) about Support! I found my CHOICES to be excellent and Awesome for my needs specifically! Based on the package I chose at this time the Options and What clinics/sites accepted this lovely voucher included (but was not limited to) a place that provided: * A workable schedule and variety of options to come in! * A clear explanation of the kinds of questions I will be asked in order to receive services. * A code of conduct that stated what they were committed to offering me for choosing their Sat-Ya-Lite TEAM. * A diversity or ways they all helped me listen to translation and different ways of communicating the SAME thing! Which is: WE CARE About YOU and Your Teeth! * Friendliness and Kindness, as well as Patience! (Since I was not totally into the look- see, of my teeth which take a lot of substance for me!) I chose to let the generosity of Washington State's HCA Care package (if I want to receive it- and I DO! offered me these 3 initial options: * A check-in and assessment with recommendations! * X-rays if needed to see further in (so they can give me an accurate) Assessment! * 2- follow-up cleanings per year! * A nice summary sheet of what occurred and what comes next when you leave the appointment! My Paired Team today was totally AWESOME! Shout out to! U! A Dentist by the name of GHAZI M BEN KURA, I loved your coat and chair-side tone!) and his phenomenal Assistant AKRAMA!

I wouldn't recommend going here if you actually need healthcare. I have been trying to get a prior…read moreauthorization for a prescription for over a month at this point. When I called the office 5 weeks ago they said they would do it and call me back when it was done. Nobody called in the timeframe they told me it would take. I have since been calling back multiple times a week and am always told nobody is available and that someone will call me back. It's been weeks though and nobody has ever called me back. I called my insurance today and they have no record of any prior authorization request. I try to be patient with service and care workers but this is just ridiculous. This office makes people suffer out of negligence and apathy, avoid it.

Out on my daily 3 mile run at a new location I decided to finish the last 1/2 mile in a "sprint"…read more About a quarter mile later I tripped on a patch of exposed large tree roots and fell forward onto several random protruding roots. I spent a week in patient while they ran comprehensive batteries of X-Rays, CT's, and various MRI's. They imaged every affected body part in every image spectrum possible. I was very impressed by the professionalism and compassion of every single staff person I interacted with. Being in my late 60's and very independent I was not accustomed to this level of care. From the talented physicians, to the nurses, and all the other staff, I was always comforted they had my best interest in mind, even if I did not always agree with them. Once all testing was done and they could make a detailed report, I was released with much better news than expected. I was able to immediately download every test from their patient portal. This is especially helpful for my provider at the VA to review, so we can now discuss a plan moving forward. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality fresh meals, which were brought to the room still very warm. The best review I can give is to declare that I will always go to Providence in any future emergency issues. Hopefully I'll never be back, but if I do return, I know that I'll be in good hands. I highly recommend this hospital.

Severe communication breakdown and lack of empathy for a critical care family…read more ​Our family's experience with Providence St. Peter Hospital has been deeply distressing during an already terrifying time. My 83-year-old grandmother was recently T-boned in a severe car accident, suffering eight broken bones, and was only just moved out of critical care. ​She managed to call me from her room, but the phone was disconnected. When I immediately called back to reconnect with her, I faced an absolute wall of bureaucratic incompetence and zero empathy. First, the staff claimed they had no idea who I was talking about. Once they finally recognized her name, they flatly refused to transfer me to her room or provide any explanation as to why. ​To prevent a family member from speaking to an elderly, severely injured patient who just initiated contact is completely unacceptable. The extreme lack of coordination between units and the rigid, unhelpful attitude of the staff turned a medical crisis into an agonizing, aggravating ordeal. St. Peter's leadership seriously needs to address how their staff handles communication with worried families. Frontline staff need training on basic empathy and how to properly locate transferred patients instead of just shutting families out.

I had severe degenerative disc disease with widespread disc collapse, herniations, bulging discs, and constant nerve pain radiating down my arms that made daily life extremely difficult. I had not slept normally in years. My experience at the Olympia Orthopedics Spine Center was excellent. The process was highly efficient, well-organized, and compassionate. The nurses were especially kind, calm, and incredibly reassuring. Dr. Manista was at my bedside I woke up in recovery, sitting with me, smiling with confidence, and making sure I was fully awake and stable before leaving. He even made a light comment about restoring alignment and giving me a little height back--which turned out to be true! On the drive home, I already noticed I could move my arm and shoulder more freely, and the constant nerve pain that had been radiating down my arms was gone. What a life-altering moment!! Dr Manista's post-operative surgical summary was extremely detailed, and walked me through the entire procedure, including decompression, discectomies, and stabilization. It was clear, precise, and reassuring. Ten days later, I feel fantastic! My range of motion is already remarkable. Rather than losing mobility, I've already gained function and mobility in my neck--it's truly amazing! I cannot recommend Dr. Manista, Amanda Cho, and the entire team highly enough. Thank you for the life-changing care. Best regards, Laura
