Providence Patient
It has been quite a while since I have interacted with a Healthcare Professional like Doctor Cayetano, who was courteous, respectful and who showed concern about my Pulmonary Condition. Many times, I encounter a Healthcare Personality that does not know how to communicate effectively with a person with my pigmentation, which was not the case with Doctor Cayetano. My only regret is, having to wait 4 or 5 months to be seen!
Providence Patient
Very good
Providence Patient
Seeing Dr. Cayetano is always a good experience. She is through, thoughtful and knowledgeable.Regarding the question: did providers always ask about "all" the medications I am taking? Misleading question! All my providers went over all my medications when I've had any major heath changes, remember that all my doctors have access to My Chartand each office has a medical assistant that goes over all my medications in the computer with me and updates as needed, before I see the doctor. Each doctor goes over the medications that they prescribe for me, and always ask if I have questions.
Providence Patient
She is the very best provider ever

Providence Patient
Thank you for the opportunity to share my thoughts.
Providence Patient
Staff didn't "phone" with results of my lung study but I DID receive results very quickly on MyChart and the Provider went over those results during my visit. I've been concerned about my health for almost 10 years and recently switched over to an ALL Providence Medical team. This was only my 2nd appt with this Privider and I didn't feel well at all during each of those visits. I didn't remember much about what was discussed during the 1st visit because I had bronchitis and was on my 2 month of having that illness. We had to revisit what was discussed In Feb 2023. I know she was running behind yet she still took the time to go over my concerns and I appreciate that very much. I haven't had the best care (at all) with former providers and had to REALLY advocate for myself and had to figure out some pretty major Issues and be prescribed the correct treatment aid meds so it's been a bit hard getting used to and trusting Providers who truly care. I may have come off as a problem patient or argumentative but it was only because I have had to fight so hard for answers and treatments for a decade. Now I have a very educated and caring medical team and I am grateful.
Providence Patient
Due to experiences with many physicians over the last few years, I was very apprehensive of beginning over again with a new hospital and providers, but I am very Impressed with Katherine Ceyatano. She understood my feelings and has worked with me In the most sincere and respectful manner. She is extremely knowledgeable and was able to uncover the cause of my breathing difficulty.I am doing so much better because of her expertise and sincere wish to help me. I feel she has been the most influential physician I have worked with In the last 13 years.
Providence Patient
Dr. Catatano, is very caring, well knowledgeable in my illness, and very attentive . Wish I would have found her a long time ago, she has been able to manage and treat my illness, and keep me out of hospital .
