Thank you to our UW Medicine employees for all your work to improve the health of the public.

Here’s how we’re making a difference in the community:

Patient relations praise

Gratitude and feedback submitted to patient relations.

Harborview Medical Center

“The ARNP who saw me was PHENOMENAL!! She was so compassionate, knowledgeable, warm, understanding, and relational. I felt a rapport with her almost immediately, and she did an excellent job of listening to my concerns. It was clear also that she had examined my chart prior to our appt, and she mentioned she had reviewed my case with her attending, which was great to hear as well! Her expertise in IBD was a great bonus as it meant that she was familiar with patients like me.”

UW Medical Center – Northwest

“All the staff, especially the nurses were amazing! In particular, nurse Nicki was ABOVE AND BEYOND. Dr. Siegart was also wonderful, I felt very safe and at ease with them.”

UW Medical Center – Montlake

“Dr Wener is the best doctor I’ve ever had the fortune to have caring for me. No one else pays as much attention, is as knowledgeable in his recommendations, holds my history and cares from visit to visit, and shows up when needed as well as he does. He deserves a raise, an award, and a medal.”

UW Medicine Primary Care

“Both the provider (Alex) and student (Sahar) we’re very personable and empathetic. I get really nervous at Drs offices and they made me feel comfortable and cared for. They explained everything so well.”

Valley Medical Center

“I want to share special thanks to Jennifer in scheduling for her herculean efforts to accommodate getting my appointment added on at the last minute. Also, special thanks to Leslie. She was very skilled, friendly, and also helped to work my appointment in. You ladies are simply the best!”

Went to UW where a physician with two specialties took over. Healthy today and no return visit of the cancer. If it’s serious it’s UW.”
