Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

He was an outstanding commentator and was patient and listened to & answered all of our questions, and was available forma phone call whenever we asked. Terrific physician and wonderful “bedside” manner.

Altho Swedish Issaquah does not offer prone position breast radiation, in every other way I found Dr Spiegel to be up to date in treatment options and willing to discuss all my questions.

Spiegel was patronizing, unwilling to share information about risks of treatment ("if I know what they are, that's what counts."), left out the not-unimportant details, risks and consequences of the burst (last 5 proton treatments of radiation following breast cancer). He may be a good statistician and a good diagnostician but he gets no compliments for bedside manner nor, most essentially, willingness to engage the patient in her own health care decisions.
