I’m from out of town, and I woke up really sick. Sometimes when you’re out of town it’s really hard to have medical workers treat you with kindness, with this medical facility it was really easy to find that. Everyone was extremely friendly and they took quick care of me. It’s scary getting that sick out of town and not knowing where to go for help, I felt like as soon as I was there they were ready to take care of me.

Today I had an appointment with Dr Jesse Nye. Everyone was pleasant until he came in. As soon as he came in and found out I was Alaska Native he started treating me rudely and acted like I wasn’t as good as him. I just had major back surgery, then flew on two different flights and needed a check up on my back. He barely examined me, didn’t seem to care about my concerns and belittled me. He wouldn’t help me onto the exam table until I asked him multiple times and when he finally did he jammed my legs up causing a horrible pain in my back. He was totally unprofessional and made me feel as though I was a bad person because of my race. I do not recommend seeing this doctor. I left feeling uncomfortable and upset with the way he treated his patient.

Had a little boating accident which damaged my ribs and ended up in the ER in Friday Harbor. They were WONDERFUL and efficient from our arrival to departure. Was so thankful to have been there instead of home where the ER's are usually pretty hectic. And with Covid around, the smaller hospital was a more reassuring environment. Thank you to all the staff who cared for me that day.

I cut my toe open at a friend's house and had to come to the ER and get some stitches. It was very clean and I was greeted quickly. I was brought back as fast as possible as they were having a busy morning. Isla was my nurse and she was excellent in keeping me informed of what was going on and cleaning out my wound. Dr. Lopez numbed me up and gave me 3 stitches to close the gash I had in my toe. I was treated with respect and caring and was out the door in 2 hours.
