Her medical team came to see me daily while I was in the hospital, and they were always gentle and kind...even when I was in a "bad" mood from pain. They were always gentle with any admonishments I needed, but still direct. Plus, they always explained WHY it was important that I do certain things I'd been neglecting (like consistently using my spirometer.)Similarly, her office staff and personnel were always "up" and encouraging, never having me wait more than 5 minutes before escorting me to the examination room. And they were always quick to respond whenever I sent Dr. Washington a message through MyChart.Aug 2024Dr was easy to talk to.Jul 2024Everything was wonderful.Jul 2024Excellent, she is very informative and friendly.
