Nr. Hamilton did fantastic. Fortunately for me, I'm quiet familiar with medical proceedings & I do not feel the need to do unnecessary tests or poison my body with conventional medicine. So I honestly will not be recommending this hospital or any of its doctors to anyone.Providence Patient
This was my first time seeing Dr. Hamilton. She was very pleasant, kind and knowledgeable. She put me at east immediately and answered my questions I really like her.Providence Patient
When NP Hamilton walked in the office she said hello without a smile and right away I could see that she was ill at ease with me [...]Providence Patient
I wish there was more communication about what the care provider was doing step by step rather than just doing it and not telling me what they're doing as they are doing it. On top of that, my after visit summary mentioned the care provider discussed a medical issue I was unaware of, but at no point was this topic discussed. I had to reach out after my appointment to ask about the matter and felt very confused as to whether it was a mistake or if they just failed to mention it. ultimately, they acknowledged that they failed to discuss it as it was noted that another doctor was supposed to have discussed it with me but that didn't happen either so I just felt very in the dark about the medical issue I should have been told about instead of finding out from a piece of paper and being confused.Providence Patient
All associates were so professional & kind. So pleasedProvidence Patient
This is in regards to the staff that was working the blood draw area. Two of the employees in the computer were joking around loudly about a patients name it was very unprofessional.Providence Patient

I was not able to get appointment with the doctor that I wanted to see because she was too busy. So customer service person recommended Dr. Hamilton instead. She's been very nice and professional.Providence Patient
Wendy Hamilton is a great care provider. Very knowledgeable and personable.Providence Patient
My appointment was at 10:00. I showed up 15 minutes prior like they recommend, at 9:45. I was not taken to a room until 11:05, and didn't see Wendy until 11:15. I understand things happen, but to wait 75 minutes for a 5 minute appointment is ridiculous. I asked a question about my previous growth scan at the perinatal clinic, and Wendy did not have that information. Which again, is understandable since it was done out of office. However, I waited an additional twenty to thirty minutes for her to return, only to say, "Everything is great!" without further explanation. If she didn't have the results, I would have appreciated a check in of I don't have them, but they're getting forwarded to us', which I would have asked her just to give me a call and we could have gone over the results over the phone. It was extremely frustrating to be in office for over two hours, and only to talk to a provider for 5 minutes. I understand people get backed up, but I would have rescheduled my (already previously rescheduled) appointment if the communication had been there. Anytime I see an OB, I never have a problem with wait times. But this is the second time I've been Wendy, and it's the second time I've been waiting for an obscene amount of time.Providence Patient
I like Dr. Wendy and Nurse but at the Reception a woman she wasn't friendly. seem brother to hear what I wanted. kinda big attitudeProvidence Patient
Wendy Hamilton is an excellent nurse practitioner and I'd highly recommend her.Providence Patient
the bad thing was the wait time. I respect that someone needed extra time - I was upset because if my challenge. normally, I do not have to wait.Providence Patient
Wendy Hamilton is an exemplary health care provider and I feel comfortable that she has my best total health in mind when under her care. I trust and respect her judgements and feel fortunate to be Ms. Hamilton's patient.Providence Patient
great! always a great experience with Wendy Hamilton! love her and her staffProvidence Patient
I waited 15 minutes in waiting room and another 45 minutes in the examining room. In the past I waited about 10 minutes in the waiting room and 10 minutes in the examining room. Improvement in the wait time would be greatly appreciated.Providence Patient
Wendy Hamilton is indeed a professional, but treats me with me with care and genuine concern. It's always a pleasure going to see her for my annual exam.Providence Patient
[...] the nurse for Wendy Hamilton was courteous and friendly and professional.Wendy is awesome.Providence Patient
I have no bad experiences,Providence Patient
We covered everything and Wendy was lovelyProvidence Patient
goodProvidence Patient
My regular provider is no longer with this group. so I got scheduled for a different Dr. which was ok until I waited 2 hours to not even be seen by her. A nurse walked into my room surprised to see me (I guess they forgot about me?). She thought the room was empty. then another assistant came in to assure me I was next. 30 minutes later the NP came in. my appt was not with her. I asked her several questions which she ignored, quickly explained her thoughts without clarifying anything when I asked. I felt pushed around like a farm animal, unheard, and definitely not valued as a patient. I will NOT be returning to this office.Providence Patient
I love Wendy, she is like family. I know when I see her I am getting the best care! Thank you for all you do.Providence Patient
ALWAYS excellent care. I have standing appt. every 3 month.Providence Patient
being my first time I was happy with everythingProvidence Patient
after being taken to the exam room and being left for at least 15-20 minutes i went out to reception where no one seemed to know that i had even been taken back and thought i'd come from the waiting room. they finally sent the provider in. I believe I saw her sitting in an office at a desk the 2 times I walked past which isn't important but I do believe I was forgotten.And secondly, I specifically asked for a RX to be filled at the pharmacy near my home (and checked it off on the form) and they instead sent it to another so that then it neede to be cancelled and resent to the proper pharmacy. All in all this wasn't one of my better experiences at this office.Providence Patient
it's always a long wait. My appointments have been changed by provider. I haven't had great experiences with the two NP I've seen there.Providence Patient
I am pregnant, so it is very uncomfortable to wait a long time on a table. The only complaint I have is that I am always on time, but I often have to wait 20-30 minutes, sometimes sitting in a gown.Providence Patient
love the ability to send emails to providers. best part is that someone reads them and someone responds to query.Providence Patient
