*Does not accept new patients

Updated August 18, 2011. Jon B. Olson is not an anesthesiologist; he has been reclassified correctly as specializing in pain medicine.

I have to wonder about your ratings when one of your top docs was put on probation Winter of 2011 by the State of Washington Roys, David S., MD (MD00010221) (Seattle, King County, Washington) Stipulated Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and Agreed Order. Respondent, a psychiatrist, failed to coordinate the care of a suicidal patient with the patient’s therapist and failed to establish a crisis plan with the patient. Respondent agreed to a probationary period during which he will complete CME on outpatient management of the acutely suicidal psychiatric patient, and submit to practice reviews. August 24, 2011.

Dr. Dorcas McLennan has been my Dr. for a very long time, and I have to say she is the best Dr. ever. She had her practice by Valley Medical and she then moved to Swedish in Ballard, I chose to follow her althought it is very far from my house and my work as she the BEST!

I haven't seen Dr. Mark Brakstad's name, he is a superb general surgeon from Northwest Hospital.

Id like to see the addition of an Integrative Medicine category. There are MDs out there who practice this, not just naturopaths and many of us would rather see a trained MD.

I strongly recommend Dr. Austin Hsu from Back 2 Health Bellevue. I had a car accident and have been seeing him for couple sessions now. He offers the state of art spinal depression equipment, which I haven't seen in other chiropractics clinics. It released my pain incredibly fast. He is very caring, exprienced and professional.

Sanctions by State, Thank you for bringing this sanction to our attention. Avvo has updated Dr. Roys's profile to reflect that disciplinary action has been taken. We do screen winners before they are awarded. However, our Top Doctors 2011 list was published before this information became public record.

Gabrielle Morris Occupational medicine - I am SHOCKED she is listed here. I have a tumor and it took her 3 months to schedule an MRI to discover it, after I'd also been having pain for 9+ months. I got multiple letters from L&I that were addressed to her and cc'd to me, that she claimed she never saw. My primary physician and physical therapists recommended MRI but Morris would not get me one. I DO NOT recommend her. She was not willing to do anything for me and did not listen to any of my concerns. All she wanted to do was close my case. Please consider this before choosing Dr Morris.

Dr. Suzanne Fiala is a selfless, caring, devoted and tireless professional. Thank you for recognizing her. The compassion for her patients, the devotion to her family and her love of animals is second to none. Thank you Dr. Fiala.

The PolyClinic has the best endocrinologists in the Seattle Metro area - the reason two of its physicians are on your "Best Docs" list. You missed the third: Dr. Shoba Subramanian is fantastic. I've seen a lot of endos in the last decade and fired them all. I've felt better than I have for years with Dr. Subramanian. Finally, the right doctor at the right time.

I came to this site looking for a Psych. for Adult ADD. I have visited some Addfoums as well and you have a Doc. listed that has many unprevoked reviews. Dr. Philip Lindsey. I have not had any dealings with him myself but maybe google him to make a best desion for yourselves. Thank You.

I wonder why GYNSeattle has not been named here? Fellowship trained and only practicing advanced robotic surgery for complex womens health issues including chronic pelvic pain and endometriosis. They helped me beyond belief and made the entire experience about me and my needs. I recommend so highly them without reservations. Gynseattle.com
