Franciscan Family Medicine and Residency - Bremerton (WA)

1 /5 Daniel Hallstrom: Pulling my family out of here. Went in for annual well visits and had my family established. I had assurances from my insurance company and their billing department that it would be covered as an “annual checkup”. I started getting bills associated with these visits upwards of $250 each and that was after insurance paid their part. Good luck trying to talk to someone. Their customer service routes to a “business center”. I’d recommend staying far far away from Franciscan or any of their offices

1 /5 Kendra Aquiningoc: My daughter found out she is pregnant and was referred to this clinic. They said they will ask a few questions and tell the answers to the dr to see if she is a “good fit” for their clinic! 1st of all, they are already judging her (she’s 18) and this isn’t a job interview!!! They wouldn’t schedule her appointment either. So we will be going elsewhere. I will be calling and speaking to a manager.

5 /5 V Drem: I’ve been going to this clinic since just before it opened in this location and have really appreciated that the new doctors there for their residencies are well supported by their mentor doctors. It’s a “two for the price of one” idea— you are seen by new doctors who are up to date on the latest medical information and then double checked by seasoned doctors who make sure they aren’t missing anything. While there have been a couple of resident doctors and a nurse there that I didn’t really like and requested not to be seen by again, all of the other doctors I’ve seen have been exceptional and keep me coming back. I think patients just need to remember that it’s totally fine to request a different doctor if you aren’t meshing well with one. This clinic is clean, calming, state of the art and is in an easy to reach to location with ample parking. Front desk staff have been respectful, kind and attentive. Appointments are easy to schedule and they can usually find a way to get you in quickly if you really need. Initially labs were not done at this location, but now that they are in the same building it’s incredibly convenient. Lab staff are quick, thorough and make the experience very low stress. All in all, I recommend this clinic if your insurance accepts it.

1 /5 Jared Cornish: Don’t bother selecting any one here as your PCP. Front desk is rude, Doctors will rush you through appointments and act inconvenienced by your presence. I had asked for help filling out paper work that is supposed to be filled out with your Doctor, instead it was taken to the back room filled out incorrectly. When asked to be fixed I was told that I did not know what I was talking about and “That is what you requested “. Toxic environment the care providers act like they don’t want to be there. Save yourself some time and go somewhere else, I don’t leave reviews often but I felt even if I could prevent one person from experiencing the stress this place has given me I did my job .

5 /5 Michelle Strickland: I was seeing Dr. Weston, who unfortunately has left. He had tests done to make sure I was healthy enough for a major surgery and unfortunately found a spot in my left lung. He immediately called and told me he was sending me in to see a cancer specialist, Dr. Howington. Dr. Howington had to remove a large section of my upper left lung. Im very thankful to all the doctors at the residency. So far, I have been placed with 3 who moved on in their medical careers.
