The Best 12 MEDICAL SERVICES near Lakewood, WA (Part 3)

Jeremy Cooke Its probably best to skip a place that refuses to perform a prescribed procedure. No need for a manager. I will just contact the state health authorities and let them figure out the denial of care procedures.

Arthur Lopez Horrible receptionist, wouldn’t give her name , works in the blood work department very unprofessional will be contacting her supervisor

Ron Solo I just called to see if they are accepting new patients because it says they are accepting new patients on their website and the receptionist very rudely said they are not and acted like she didnt know what Regence insurance is....

Brody Barnes My wife and I have had Dr. Lee as our family physician for many years. He is excellent, his diagnosis is always correct, he takes a personal interest in our health, and provides followup.

Gonzalez Erica (Ester) This place should be shutdown due to its employees...they dont even do theyre job. All they do is laugh and be rude all day!

Felix S Mediocre escape room. It was easy to complete and escape, but once free, they had police bring me back because I finished it too quickly. In the end, it took me several months to finish this escape room. Not happy.

A. Cole For my entire life she has been primary care provider. When I was in middle school she told me I needed to lose weight. She told me to google recipes and take initiative with what I ate. I was 12, and I had (and still have) an eating disorder. I was discouraged from going to the doctor for years because of her and how embarrassed and ashamed she made me feel. Im 20 now, and am still reaping the consequences of her lack of empathy.

Wendy Tinker Dr. Dawson is the only doctor that I have been to in 64 years that intentionally breaks her Hippocratic Oath. She started out relationship by stating that the pain in my back was in my head, even though an MRI proved that I had a pinched nerve in my spine. I have degenerative arthritis and have had multiple surgeries and joint replacements. Next she said she wasnt able to prescribe pain medication. She is, in fact, permitted to do so (I did my research ). I have begged for relief, most recently for my sons wedding, and she has refused. After sitting on my request for a referral to a pain clinic for a month, she finally informed me that I need six weeks of PT to get in the class. I said Id do anything. But, apparently during the six weeks she wont provide any pain relief at all. Stay far away from this woman!! What should have been the best day of my life was completely overshadowed by pain.

Anthony Parra First refferal was sent almost 2 months ago. Repeatedly sent multiple refferals over time and they kept saying they did not receive it. That their fax machine has issues with receiving faxes from tricare. Kept having them resent until tricare said they can just pull them up online. Apparently they refused to and 2 weeks passed and no response. Decided just to drop them. I dont want to be the one to do their job for them. Just not worth it. Receptionist are nice.

Rich Gray Truly the best Dr. that I’ve ever been a patient with. Very knowledgeable and explains things so I can understand. He is friendly and makes me feel comfortable during my visits. If I could sum it up I would have to say that Dr. Rock rocks!

Brandon Vollmer On Jan 28th, 2025 my spouse came to greater lakes to receive mental health services. After this initial visit she had only seen her provider once, and has had MULTIPLE episodes of Crisis. She never had crisis incidents until she started to see Crystal. Every time she has tried to call to schedule an appointment no one answers. She also refused to listen to my spouse when she asked to be put on medication because SHE NEEDS IT. I do not recommend this place FOR ANYONE. She called yesterday at 8:15am to speak with a manager to “break up” and we have yet to receive any response. How this place is still in operation blows my mind. These people are the sole reason why people commit themselves to Western State Hospital. If I could rate zero stars I would.

Kayla If I could give this place negative stars I 100% would. I am not a person to leave reviews, but I hate this place so much I just have to. I had an appointment with K on July 22 and when I was 5 minutes away I get a call that she left. My appointment was in the afternoon and they had all morning to call me, but waited until I was almost there. I then rescheduled my appointment for the following week and once again she canceled on me. At that point, I no longer wanted to see her so I requested a new therapist. A week had gone by and hadn’t heard anything so I called again and they said they will call someone and send me an email ASAP. we are coming up on one month later and I have not been seen by a single person. This place is a joke. Please go somewhere else.

Angie Tiara I scheduled an appointment for my husband for his physical, and have waited months to get in. My husband even took off for work for his appointment. He came in on time and been told that he didn’t have an appointment. Apparently they took someone else date of birth and social security and put it under his contact because they have the same name. They were not helpful. Instead of fixing the issue and let him in, they just said they cant do anything and need to reschedule. They were not helpful and wasted of time!

Bruised Banana I was supposed to have an appointment today but they had just canceled, saying they were sick. from seeing all of the reviews I shouldve just made one with my original doctor. been in extreme pain for about a month because of IBS and ulcers honestly happy we have emergency clinics or I wouldnt last another month for my new appointment. disappointing..

Michelle B Went in for my first appointment today and the 2 front desk ladies were nice and helpful. I am super happy with my pcp, Holly. Shes super polite, caring, and helpful. Pharmacy folks were also great. I had to call and switch an appointment and the lady on the phone was really really nice and helpful. I was hesitant with all the bad reviews but my experience was great and I am happy. Place was obviously ran down and could use some updates on the building. Staff probably could get paid more. Overall, super happy with this place!

Andrew Brokaw I had an appointment scheduled for over a month, then received a call that the doctor I was scheduled with didnt offer the services Id been referred there to receive. The website lists that doctor as providing those services. Not only did I wait over a month for medical care at this appointment, I now have to wait an additional month and a half to receive that care. If Id been informed right away, or if the website was accurate, this would not have happened and Id actually be able to receive medical treatment I need without waiting multiple months for no reason aside from incompetence. The receptionist who called to let me know my appointment was cancelled offered to book an appointment at a different clinic, but did not follow up or provide any information about that appointment. Am I still a patient here? Can I count on an appointment that wont be cancelled the day of? Theres no way to know. Dont go here unless you have to.

Angelica Cameron Ever since I turned 18 I’ve seen my main provider twice and I already want to switch my provider. She has been very dismissive of my issues and concerns regarding my health and today I came in wanting a dermatology referral for my contact dermatitis and wanted an actual person specialized in skin to help me but instead she just gave me a prescription for a steroid cream. Yeah let me slap on steroids on my face for two weeks only for it to come back worse like that wasn’t what happened when I first saw a doctor for my eczema

Jessica Bass I went to the ER today because a metal door slammed into my chest. The Specialist that helped me with X-rays was so kind and respectful (sorry I cried the whole time) and the Attending (she wore red scrubs) and Evee the charge nurse thank you for being so gentle and helping me feel safe and comfortable. Hospitals make me so anxious and I had a very pleasant experience. I feel like I waited a reasonable amount of time for everything.

Amber Dahle My daughter asked me to set up an appointment for her to get restarted in mental health services. When I called to set up her initial appointment I was told by the woman who answered the phone that I am not able to set up her initial appointments because she is over the age of 13 and they have to talk to her and get consent! As someone that works in the mental health field this is not accurate. As her parent I am able to set her appointments. However for any further information she would have to sign a release of information. She is 15! She is not able to drive herself to appointments, pay for them, or set them up herself considering her dad or myself would have to set them around our work schedules. I have been setting her appointments up for years now and have never ran into this issue and when I looked at the WAC and the laws there was nothing that states she has to consent to an appointment being set up. How are parents supposed to help their kids get the help they need when there are these types of barriers in place!

lydia figueroa Dr. Micali has horrible bedside maner.

Michelle R What is 24 business hours??? I requested to have my referral sent to a different facility, and the receptionist responded with that unclear explanation about “24 business hours.” That makes it even more frustrating because when dealing with medical referrals, patients need straightforward information—not vague wording that can be easily misinterpreted. If the response time is actually up to three business days, they should just say that instead of using a confusing phrase that makes it sound like a quicker turnaround. It almost feels like they’re trying to make the wait seem shorter than it really is, which isn’t fair to patients who are trying to plan their care.

Mara DeLoney Woman in LabCorp (205) was disrespectful while I was with a client and spoke badly about us to another patient who was also receiving labs. Entirely unprofessional and disrespectful and provided less than substandard care to my client who did nothing wrong but show up for an appointment. Hoping that when I have to come here for my own medical care that I am treated better than my client was.

Jessie Wilde Suendermann Emergency room staff are professional and courteous. Parking is ample. The intake lady (seemed new) should know more about different kinds of insurance medical cards, (Regence is pretty common I would think) but other than that an over all excellent and expedient service. We chose St. Clair because it is close to our home and I didnt think the line would be as long as other hospitals. It was a good choice. The phone charging station is a nice convenience.

Hannah Borja Worst ER ever.. The receptionist aren’t professional. When letting them know the reason to be seen, the passed judgement by the look on their face and a smart remark. It also takes hours to be seen by a physician.
