Dr. Haines is an excellent doctor, a real professional. He was answering all my questions during pregnancy, explained all the procedures and reasons for them, and when it came to the actual birth, he did everything so calmly and professionally that I had no reasons to worry despite the complications. I highly recommend Dr. Haines.

I am a patient of Dr. Otto's (who I like very much), but while she was on materity leave, I saw Cheryl Axford for my annual exam. I had had a cyst on my ovary the year before (which ended up taking care of itself) and she decided to check everything out with an ultrasound. Well, although it was the only cyst I had ever been aware of, Cheryl proceeds to tell me bluntly that I most likely have problems with my ovaries and therefore will have problems with my fertility. Since my husband and I were planning on trying to start a family, this was particularly devastating. She was unsympathetic, barely answered my questions, and said, "Don't worry. It takes some women years to get pregnant." I'm sorry - but you don't tell someone they fertility problems and then brush it off like it's no big deal. I was so upset I went and saw my regular doctor to run tests and then actually went back to Cheryl because she had left me with so many unanswered questions. I was just as dissatisfied the second time. I went through emotional hell thinking I wouldn't be able to have a baby and she acted so callously and like it wasn't a big deal. I will never elect to see this woman again. Fortunately, my regular OBGYN is fantastic. The positive that came out of this is that my husband and I got pregnant on OUR FIRST TRY. So, the worrying and stress that we were put through ended up being for nothing.

Dr. Otto saw me through my first pregnancy and miscarriage in 2005, and was always caring and respectful. She talked me through all of the ups and downs, and made sure I was always aware and prepared for whatever came my way. Her nurse Emily was equally attentive, and knowledgeable. There's nothing I would change about my experience.

Do not go there. We had an appointment today with Dr Judith A Lacy at 10.40 AM. Were gievn address at 1800 116th Ave Belleve, reached there on time and after 15-20 min wait, we were asked to 1810 building as doctor' is sitting there and then we waited there again and then at 11.45 they came and said we cannot take you today reschedule. This is absurd, non sense, rediculus. They kept us waiting for more than hour to say go back. Me and my wife had to take OOF (and my wife might not get paid for those hours) to meet the doctors. Never ever go to Dr Judith A Lucy

The worst experience of my life. Even though I had appointments, I had to wait for hours to see her. Because of her lack of experience and knowledge my son was born 3 months early and stayed at the hospital for more than 2 months. This all happened just because she didn't understand that I had bladder infection- - even though I visited her at least 3 times to let her know that there was something different and I wasn't feeling OK- -. She never listened to me and kept saying that I am supposed to stay at home and don't care. After a visit to the ER I gave birth. If you enjoy seeing your newborn baby attached to cables and worrying if he'll survive or die for months, then go to Dr Vankessel, because she can guarantee she won't be understanding about a problem.

I went to the Overlake ob/gyn office in Issaquah - I've never been treated so terribly in my life at a physician's office. I waited nearly 2 hours for my doctor, I was rushed, and I was told I needed an invasive, risky and unnecessary procedure (as determined by another doc)! I was hardly treated like a human being - more like a cow in the chute who they simply wanted to squeeze as much money out of as possible without regard for my overall health! Horrible place!!

I went once for a bad pre-conception visit to this office to see Dr. Otto. 1) I waited over an hour to get in although I had an appointment. 2) The receptionist was rude when I asked how much longer I had to wait. 3) Everytime I've called the hold times are rediculous and the people who answer the phone are rude. 3) Dr. Otto was impersonal and barely took any history (even though I have PCOS and thyroid issues) from me, her only words were get on a pre-natal vitamin... end of story. They just seem too busy!

Yesterday Dr. Ann Kolwitz performed a laparoscopy on me to remove a fluid-filled enlarged fallopian tube (Hydrosalpinx) and cyst on my left ovary that had been giving me chronic pain for many months. I was very impressed with her professionalism, surgical skill, and warm personality pre and post surgery. Equally impressive was her support team at Overlake Hospital, from the pre-op and surgical nurses to the anesthesiologist. I highly recommend her--and, could not be more happy with the results of my surgery
