Initial visit to emergency is OK, nurses are wonderful, however, SEVERAL times my 90+ mother has been released too early and needed more care the same day, so then we go to Island Hospital in Anacortes, WA. The last visit to ER in Coupeville resulted in 5 HOURS of horrible SCREAMING (no exaggeration!) from another patient. The whole ER had to listen to it non-stop almost our entire time there. RIDICUOUS! Many patients were frightened, on top of being extremely sick. Whether the screamer was mentally off, addicted to drugs or whatever, NO ONE should be in that state for over 5 hours. I welcome being contacted by the hospital to hear all of my family's experiences. They are so lucky we don't believe in suing.

The…read morefirst time they were all very nice, but I was misdiagnosed and given a does of a steroid that made my illness much worse and prolonged it. I should've been given some antibiotics, which I ended up having to go to my own doctor at Everett Clinic to get. This most recent time I went in after having a sore throat, cough, headache. I tested for Covid and let them know. I was asked to wait outside instead of the waiting room. I understood that even though I tested they had to take precautions. Once I was called in I was not given a Covid test, the nurse did not wash her hands before taking my vitals, though she was very nice. When the doctor came in he not only didn't wash his hands, but he wasn't wearing a mask.He was also very nice, but his only advice was to wash my hands...what???? It makes me feel terrible to say it, but, it's just not a place you might want to get treatment, they need to step up their quality of care significantly. The other thing that happened to me at Whidbey walk in was that the receptionist gave me paperwork to fill out and with it there was another patient's chart. When I realized what I had in my hands I returned to the desk, whereupon the receptionist said, "oopsie" - They are all the nicest people, but not sure it's safe.

We so wanted to work with Bayview Design. We initially made…read morecontact with a representative at Bayview. She seemed to really know her products and seemed very knowledgeable on contractors etc. on the Island. When we didn't hear back from her in weeks we reached out only to find she had a medical emergency that precluded her from helping us. We wish her well. When we asked what happened, we were told about her medical condition and that we had, "fallen thru the cracks". Okay, then have someone else come out please. A subsequent appointment was made and Courtney came to our home who seemed knowledgeable and competent. Weeks after and Courtney NEVER responded! Our saga began in November and it's March now. THEY NEVER RESPONDED! WOW! We sought other designers and we are almost done with a Kitchen and Bathroom remodel that Bayside could have easily had but for a lack of response on their part. We spent over $50,000. Their business must be going thru the roof for them to be able to ignore customers like they did with us.

I originally was recommended to go to this business as I was going to remodel my kitchen. I walked…read morein and came into contact with Courtney. She was very hurried and stated that she does not do walk in's, but, can make an appointment to see my place. She did, came out, took notes, measured very efficiently. I also described my needs of a large pantry space, knock out a wall, close off an unnecessary exterior door and to have a more "open" concept that hid the sink upon entry to the house, and that I did not want a "corner" ( really don't like Lazy Susan's) When I got the proposal back, I observed a complete open concept in an "L" shape" with my sink in full view of the front door, a corner, no large pantry, little storage space except for a large island. When I e-mailed her, I was asking if we could find a way to get a larger pantry space and got no response. I called twice a couple of weeks apart, left messages and got no response. At this point, she has lost my business and respect for her professionalism, as well as, the desire to ever recommend anyone to this business. Even if she was not the right designer or did not want to work on the design further, I would have hoped that I would have gotten some feedback/contact to that affect. I have moved forward on my kitchen with another designer that has been wonderful. It has been a fluid project, challenging,but, we came up with a perfect design that would allow for the large pantry and other needs.

After a few adjustments I was back to myself. Since I have relocated to the mainland I have tried to get relief via other chiropractors but they just do not use the same techniques as Dr Rorex so I do not get the relief that I would like to. I have gotten to where I just wait until I can see Dr Rorex. I highly suggest Dr Rorex to everyone! Keep in mind that Chiropractic care is gradual for some of us so don't toss in the towel if you do not get immediate relief. Give it some time! You will be glad you did because it is soooo worth it!!

Anyone with tooth pain knows that getting an appointment soon takes first priority and his office staff was so helpful in getting me seen quickly. As a testament to Dr. El-Bahr's skill, my tooth had no pain after my root canal (both times). As a surgeon myself, I can recognize surgical skill. Dr. El-Bahr not only did a great job very skillfully, he also did it efficiently, because I was not sitting in the chair very long having the procedure done.

I'm a severe metal dentaphobic, as in, I'm deathly afraid of metal dental tools. Not the drill, but the exam mirror, and the metal picks that rattle against my teeth. This is important info for later on. Anyway, when I first walked into Dr. Elbahr's office I was warmly greeted by the receptionist, who had been very thorough in finding out my insurance information prior to my arrival, and had all my paperwork ready for me to sign. I was immediately directed to the exam chair by another friendly staff member who proceeded to do my xrays. Dr. Elbahr walked in, introduced himself, made some small talk, looked at the xrays, did my exam, and then we discussed my plan of treatment. I explained my dilemma, and he assured me he would make me as comfortable as possible during treatment. Both he and his assistant both asked me on separate occassions if I was on any pain, and actually not being in pain surprised them. He told me to call his office if I have any pain before treatment. My actual root canal was scheduled for ten days later (they were booked because it was the end of the year, and everyone is trying to use their benefits). Today, I received my first root canal treatment. As before, when I arrived, I was greeted warmly, and directly seated in a very comfy chair. The doctor came and sat with me, made small talk while he prepared his instruments and whatnot, and assured me that if I became too scared we would take another route, just let him know. He started the numbing injections, numbing spots at a time, and told me if I feel any pain to let him know. I was given a pair of dark glasses, and they turned up the music so I could focus on it instead of the drill sounds. I brought my own headphones though. The treatment went well, he explained everything as it was happening...and when he brought out the stills I just turned my music up. Every time the anesthesia would start to wear off (my body burns it off quick), I would raise my hand, and he'd give me another shot. He sent me home on antibiotics, and I need to go back in two weeks. So far, Dr. Elbahr has been incredible. Friendly, personable, thorough, timely, and definitely professional. He and his staff will take care of you!

One thing he made sure over these years is that he can only take you as far as you allow. Meaning he does not overstep unless you want and ask for help. As he mentioned in the comment below, he's not there to fix you, he's only providing you with help so you can heal yourself. And I'm so glad he's that way. I'm glad he doesn't wanna fix you, but instead shows you how powerful you can be if you allow yourself to be. I'm glad he's not for everyone. Especially the one who chooses fear.

A DEMOLISHING COMPANY WITH A HEART!…read more I can't say enough good things about Affordable Environmental, the owner Tony Chase, and his work crew. I've been trying off and on to leave a review and finally figured it out. In Spring 2023, Tony was hired to demolish a condemned 1930's farm house on my property that needed to come down. Everything was done on time, responsibly, and by the book, with asbestos abatement included. All for a very competitive price. And then the big twist happened, which really confirmed Tony's stellar reputation: After being told by the asbestos workers that there may be an old log cabin underneath the farm house, Tony took his time and "skinned" the side off, rather than just demolishing everything. He was able to do so because he is very skilled with a track hoe; it was like watching an artist at work! And sure enough, underneath was a solid log cabin structure that our local historical society estimates to be an old logging cabin from circa 1870's. Intact cabins like this are very hard to find and a historic preservationist is currently conducting research to confirm the age and ownership. But Affordable Environmental, aka Tony Chase, didn't stop there. Tony felt very strongly about keeping this historic find safe during the winter so it wouldn't deteriorate. He volunteered the materials and staff time to construct a roof structure, wrap the building in plastic, and install one of his own large dehumidifiers to keep it dry inside. And it's working! Research on this historic logging cabin can continue and perhaps grants can be found to preserve the structure for the long term. Thank you Tony Chase and the AE crew!
