My cat had been ill for several days and I took her to the Critter Doctor as a new patient. Sadly - and I hate to be depressing - but it turns out my cat had an abominal tumor and needed to be put down. This all happened in one day - today. :( The doctor was very caring and took lots of time to explain what was going on. The technician even made a memento of Kitty's pawprints for me to keep. Everybody was very kind and professional and made this difficult day better.

This smaller dental group has a great, personal friendly feel. Although the main dentist is the constant, there is now a new partner, who replaced a great, young woman, Dr. Serra. (I hear she's opened up her own practice, elsewhere and she's great!) For routine visits, the hygienists are the ones that really work on you, and they are pretty stable. They are all very knowledgable and friendly, and the main reason we stay with the practice. Dr. Yagi is ok, so far as I can tell, but you don't spend as much time with her as her staff.

Pros: Newly remodeled Safeway. Beside an experienced Great Clips and Liquor store. Good Deli, Bakery and China Express, Organic Foods store.
Cons: stockers aren't that experienced and sometimes can appear a little lost. 9am - 1 am is just silly for a Safeway.
Overview: Nearby Woodinville, Bothell and Kirkland, this Juanita Safeway does have quite a few things that are next to it. Other than the things mentioned above it is near a 7-11, Dairy Queen, Blockbusters, McDonald's (with play area... though it's awfully cold in the winter).
Inside, the Starbucks closes way too early at about 7 or 8 pm but the staff are about average in speed. Pastries offered primarily come from the in-store bakery as the ones offered from the main office tend to be a little... stale.
Carts are stored outside in a covered area, so those with children who are sensitive to such things, will probably appreciate a coat placed under them once they are in the store.
Overall? This Safeway seems to be like many newly remodeled ones in the area, nice amenities, with a staff that still needs seasoning. Only the hours and staff are drawbacks.

OK, so your 5 year old needs a humidifier because he's got a new cough, your 3 year old has a runny nose, and your 1 year old needs to have have her antibiotic refilled and you just happen to run out of diapers at the wrong time. You're in Kirkland and it's 2:30 in the morning, what do you do?
Walgreens to the rescue!
Yup, this is a one stop, 24-hour stop for all of the those things and if you didn't like to wait in the store for all those medications, you can go across the parking lot for groceries at the local Safeway (yes the map is a little off). Here, you can pick up cheap electronics, and some not-bad door crasher type sales. The cheap electronics are generally cheap in quality, not necessarily price.
Of course, the fine people at Safeway could tell you to go use their drug store, but as of this point I know that nationwide, I'm covered at Walgreens. At Safeway, I'm not sure if that's set up yet.
It wouldn't be fair if I was all upbeat about this place and give it only 3 stars. This place loses it's star at about one time of week. About 12pm - 9 pm Friday nights. It appears most of Kirkland gets sick about this time and requires presecription medicine. They do staff as best they can, but sometimes the drive up counter can get 4-5 cars deep at this time with 4-5 people at the check out stand in the pharmacy. Updating records when you get new insurance can be a pain as well when you have a family. Other than that? The wait times are pretty good ranging from 30mins-1 hour.
If you work nights like I do and are up at odd hours anyway, these two stores on each side of the parking lot, Safeway and Walgreens, are your fairly all-inclusive 24 hour Food & Drug stops in Kirkland.

They take extra care not to upset the patients.. They try not to inflict copious amounts of pain like other denists. On my last visit they were quite friendly and when i wasn't sure if i had enough novacaine he told me he would gladly give me a little more if it was not feeling numb enough. That and they swab it very good with the pre-numbing stuff before the usually painfull shot (which wasn't that painfull here!) I will definately keep going to this dentist for the carefull and almost painless practices!

The Speech & Hearing Clinic was recommended for my son for at the advice of his physician. The office was very thorough in sending pre-appointment paperwork. They allowed plenty of time to answer the extensive questionnaires.
At the appointments, we found the staff to be friendly and knowledgeable. The physicians and technicians directed their questions to my son at his level of understanding. They explained the testing involved and the results and were sure to answer all of our questions.
The insurance department/billing area has some problems though. It usually takes 2-3 messages before I get a return call. And there have been a few problems with the different staff- not all are on our plan, but they didn't tell us that first. Be sure to check it out completely first.
