Dr. Louie is one of the best doctors I've ever seen. He is an exceptionally skilled surgeon, was completely committed to maximizing my health outcomes, which required an enormous allocation of his time, care and his department's resources in planning and executing a complex surgery. As important, his bedside manner was exceptional. He addressed my fears with compassion and concrete steps to ensure my emotional well-being. I cannot say enough good about him.

The only challenge I have had was the wait time to be able to get into see the doctor. I understand how challenging our medical conditions are to medical staff here in WA. They are inundated with not only want is coming down from politics in WA D.C. And in our own state. I knew I wanted to have Dr. Louie for my surgery and to keep my current PCP. It was worth the wait for me. I am appreciative for the services I am receiving I just wish circumstances would would change so staff weren't spread so thin and we, as a country, would take better care of the people taking care of us.

I've been suffering for 12 years of this swallowing problem. I've lost over 40 pounds. It's very difficult life that I'm living due to this illness.

Dr. Louie was a specialist to whom I was referred. He was great. He listened to all my concerns. He explained his take on everything and made suggestions as to what I could do next even though he was not the person who needed to help me. I am grateful we have medical specialists like Dr. Louie to help us on our way.
