Friends have described the dermatologist full body exam, and I felt that mine was rushed. Alarmingly, the indication that the visit was coming to an end was when Dr. Nymeyer opened the door to the exam room while still speaking with me. I had my arms outside my robe and was holding it up to cover my chest. He continued to speak with me with the door open while others walked down the hallway. I was not given the opportunity to ask follow up questions as I felt very vulnerable sitting undressed with the door open, holding the gown over my body.
Swedish Patient
Dr. Nymeyer is a great provider, I always feel comfortable with him and feel heard and seen.
Swedish Patient
Doc was efficient and professional.
Swedish Patient
Always good experience
Swedish Patient
This was probably the most efficient appointment that I have ever had. The doctor knew why I was there and what the appropriate treatment was, so he had everything ready when I arrived.
Swedish Patient
Dr. Nymeyer was very thorough and responsive to concerns.
Swedish Patient
He put me at ease with a condition that I was very worried about.
Swedish Patient
He was a pleasure to see and a very good doc.
Swedish Patient
Provider consistently provides sub standard, dehumanizing care expereinces. I would not recommend this provider to any patient.
Swedish Patient
Very thorough and professional.
Swedish Patient
All good
Swedish Patient
Very professional and acted in my best interest
Swedish Patient
Had to wait and appointment felt very rushed.
Swedish Patient
I have a excellent doctor
Swedish Patient
He was peronalavle, knowledgeable, and I was confident in his knowledge and abilities
Swedish Patient
Great doctor great staff. I h a d a problem with bleeding from a previous biopsy on my forehead. The st a ff contacted me numerous times followed up and then got me in to see the doctor. Best dermatologist I have ever visited. Professional compassionate and a great sense of humor.
Swedish Patient
Went as I had hoped. Routine check up with great results. Will definitely come back for any additional needs.
Swedish Patient
He was half an hour late after stressing how important it was for me to get there on time in handouts he was flustered when he came in administered a shot of lidocaine to me lip that hurt so bad I involuntarily yelled ow it hurt soo bad before the shot I asked him how big the needle was he said well it's a needle as he jammed it into my lip then left immediately after he took the skin tag off my lip I had no chance to ask him a couple of questions about two other concerns I had and I was booted out his assistant wasn't much better
Swedish Patient
Provider was very friendly, kind, and competent. I don't normally like to see male physicians but he made me very comfortable. The wait time from scheduling the appointment was really long - 5 months. I also had to wait a long time in the exam room. I arrived at 9:30 as instructed and sat in the exam room until 10:10 to be seen. I understand doctors are busy but it's frustrating to make an appointment and have such a long wait.
Swedish Patient
I only had issues scheduling the appointment with the provider. I called the office 3 times to get a spot with the provider.
Swedish Patient
Great service.
Swedish Patient
My provider was condescending and made me feel very rushed. He did not take my concerns very seriously and had a very condescending attitude, it felt like he was talking down to me. He also made me feel rushed so I was not able to ask all of my questions.
Swedish Patient
It ia always a very good experience! When I needed to see somebody when my primary care doctor was not available, they got me in the same day, which is great!!!
Swedish Patient
Doctor was patient and infomative
Swedish Patient
It was the first time I saw him. The appointment went great, he was attentive. I felt he heard me. The only problem I had was there was another man with him. He was not introduced to me. I had to change into a gown. I do not feel it was appropriate to have both of them in the room. I am living with CPTSD and was triggered.
Swedish Patient
During this appointment I felt like I was rushed in and out, and it felt like a whirlwind and I did not have any time to ask questions or be heard. There was almost no introduction, no conversation, and no conclusion. I was in and out in 3 minutes, which would be great if this were a nuisance, but I was in pain and wanted to make sure I was heard and respected. I don't think it is entirely the doctors fault, because I know he was probably slammed, but a little more care would have helped. The good part, was that the medication he prescribed seems to be working, but there was also an issue getting the prescription through, which is a different story.
Swedish Patient
Granted, my appointment was with a dermatologist. Thus, there was a three month wait period. However, Dr. Nymeyer and his team were all exceptional. Dr Nymeyer was very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. As well as attentive and well communicative.
Swedish Patient
Dr.Nymeyer identified a problem others had overlooked, set its remediation into motion immediately, and followed up by phone to make sure I understood what was happening and to make sure I was ok.
Swedish Patient
Excellent care
Swedish Patient
I waited in the waiting room for close to 45 minutes. After the medical assistant took me back to the exam room I waited again for close to one hour. The scheduled appointment was scheduled as a 15 minute appointment. Finally after the doctor came in the exam room he did broach the subject of him being late. The doctor did a quick exam, answered my questions. All in all the provider was in the exam room for approximately 7 minutes and his medical assistant answered more questions after he left. This was a disappointing visit. I had to take the day off work and drive over one hour to attend this appointment. After the lack of time and care I felt this visit was a waste of my time!
Swedish Patient
Dr did a great job of assessing the problem and fixing the problem
Swedish Patient
All care and attention to my needs exceeds my expectations
Swedish Patient
This was my first visit with Dr. Nymeyer. I liked him and trusted his diagnosis. I have a follow-up appointment in 6 months. I gave him a 9 because I've only seen him once. I think he may rate a 10 as I get to know him.
Swedish Patient
This was a very good experience for me this Dr talked loud enough for me to hear him and his nurse was very friendly and kind I will recommend him for sure
Swedish Patient
I arrived early and was taken immediately. Everyone was very polite, professional, and helpful
Swedish Patient
I appreciate very much that the doctor was engaged to hear my concerns and addressed with explanation and treatment.
Swedish Patient
I wasn't seen until 30 minute after my appointment time but he was great once he got there.
Swedish Patient
All good.
Swedish Patient
NyMeyers is great!
Swedish Patient
Efficient and effective care.
Swedish Patient
NyMeyers is great!
Swedish Patient
Miscommunication and understanding of when meditation was to be taken failed. Instructions for the next step in health care outlined better.
Swedish Patient
Dr was very quick & straight forward. I wanted my skin checked & he did. Found one tiny possible issue on my back & took a sample to have tested.
Swedish Patient
Dr was very knowledgeable and looked into things I had never considered were affecting me before.
Swedish Patient
Excessive wait in exam room. The doctor was polite but not helpful and dismissive.
Swedish Patient
I appreciated the fact that Dr. Nymeyer was empathetic and was very sharp. He was clearly well versed in the most recent developments in therapies and treatments. I was so impressed that I suggested to my wife that she should have a consult with him.
Swedish Patient
Great experience 10/10.
Swedish Patient
Took 6 months to schedule, talked to him for 5 minutes. Almost seemed offended that I was bothering him.
Swedish Patient
Everything was good
Swedish Patient
All good
Swedish Patient
I was able to get an appointment in a timely manner. The receptionist was very friendly. The nursing assistant was thorough, knowledgeable and pleasant. The doctor was personable, efficient, skilled and knowledgeable. It was a good experience.
Swedish Patient
Even with an urgent referral it took over 3 months to get an appointment at any of the 3 Swedish dermatology clinics. Dr Nymeyer seemed nice but overworked and tired, didn't really ask questions or spend time trying to figure out my issue.
Swedish Patient
Provider was 20 minutes late in seeing me and was very rushed
Swedish Patient
It was clear the doctor did not review my medical history prior to my visit.
Swedish Patient
The doctor and the care team was so amazing thanks to all of them
Swedish Patient
Knowledgeable & reassuring.
Swedish Patient
Dr. Nymeyer did not give me time to discuss my concerns. He spent as little time as possible with me and didn't invite questions. I was not able to talk about multiple things that I had hoped to address. I felt rushed and unimportant.
Swedish Patient
Doing good
Swedish Patient
Great experience at this doctor's Great follow up too
Swedish Patient
The care provider I saw was very helpful and very courteous to what I asked.
Swedish Patient
Excellent provider
Swedish Patient
The provider made it a very good experience.
Swedish Patient
In all of my appts, I was treated very good . I love all of my care teams.
Swedish Patient
I found Dr. Nymeyer to be pretty unpleasant. I don't know if it was because he was late, or it was his nature, but he seemed like he was rushing and dismissive. He was a perfect representation of doctors I don't like seeing. I felt like I was just being shuffled through and he had an air of arrogance. I came to see him about a spot on my chin and before I could even show him where it was he wiped off the makeup from a pimple I had on the side of my chin and said, "Ha, this?" He looked down my underwear without giving me any warning, during the body/mole scan. He barely stayed in the room long enough for me to ask questions about a wart I was thinking about getting removed, and left me with the medical assistant. She was really sweet as if to make up for it, and answered my questions. But by the end I felt icky and just wanted to get out of there.
Swedish Patient
It just felt like a very quick body scan and I have many brown spots, etc. I guess I felt the exam would have taken more time.
Swedish Patient
My needs were met with care and came to a successful conclusion.
Swedish Patient
I was nervous going into this appointment and the medical assistant sat me down and explained the visit. When the doctor came in we sat and talked about the reason for this appointment and the importance of this appointment. I really felt at ease and relaxed after our talk. He and his team are exceptional.
Swedish Patient
Booked out extremely far in advance, which has been my experience with every Swedish practitioner. Makes it impossible to build up a base with any care giver and diagnose anything in reasonable timeframes. He was also quite rude and just shook my hand and walked out when he had answered my initial questions without actually asking if I had any others. In general had the demeanor of just wanting to get me out of there, which is also consistent with all of my other Swedish experiences in the past year.
Swedish Patient
I felt very Comfortable with the doctor and confident that all my concerns were addressed, and the doctor had a helpful suggestions for possible prescriptions that could help one of my conditions.
Swedish Patient
He made no effort to establish rapport. His manner was abrupt and uncaring. He didn't seem interested in understanding my concerns or responding to them.
Swedish Patient
I felt like I was being listened too
Swedish Patient
Care is good ..
Swedish Patient
Seemed like a very competent doctor; he made me comfortable in what could have been a vulnerable -feeling appointment.
Swedish Patient
He was very good telling me about what is going on with my issues with my hair and nail problems.
Swedish Patient
Dr Nymeier takes time to listen to my concerns and consistently follows up to previous complaints to make sure treatment is successful. His warm demeanor always brings a smile to my face
Swedish Patient
Was there for cryotherapy on an AK on my face. Treatment was thorough, he also did some smaller spots, but at the end I asked if I should stay out of the sun, and he said "Don't worry about it." He provided me with no aftercare advice, nor did the staff give me any kind material or advice on aftercare. I went online when I got home and found advice from major clinics. It turned out that I have to avoid the sun, and there were other wound care steps to follow. Again, the treatment was very competent as far as I could tell, but I'll never go back there again.
Swedish Patient
It was a relief to finally have a diagnosis
Swedish Patient
The provider, Dr. Nymeyer, was excellent, great demeanor, answered all my questions. Didn't feel like he was dismissive at all like I have with some other Swedish providers. I feel hopeful he'll be able to help me with my condition.Wait time was quite long, but I think that was because they book him with so many patients. In addition, I didn't love that when I made the appointment they stressed that my appointment was for 15 minutes, which made me feel rushed. Even though the provider didn't make me feel this was the case, it was in the back of my mind.
Swedish Patient
The doctor only saw me for about 3 minutes, proceeded to barely tell me what condition I had and then proceeded to leave the room. He instructed the nurse to check me out of the room and I had to ask the nurse to please bring the doctor back because I had questions and the appointment was scheduled for 15 minutes. The nurse didn't want to call the doctor implying that he had a procedure with another patient that was more important than my appointment and told me to contact him through my chart when I was already there and had spent a month and a half waiting for the appointment plus time off from work. She proceeded to call the doctor back in after I told her that the appointment was 15 minutes long. The doctor sighed and came back to answer my questions in a poor manner. These appointments are EXPENSIVE and schedule way far in advance for the doctors not to spend the designated time with the patient. It's VERY DISRESPECTFUL after the patient has to wait and spend time off their jobs to come to an office to get care. I advise this doctor to ACTUALLY SPEND TIME WITH THEIR PATIENTS.
Swedish Patient
All good
Swedish Patient
Horrible. 30 mins late. Unprofessional- touched my leg. His staff didn't have access to my medical records and had no idea or concern that I didn't see them after they left the room. The worst provider I've ever seen. Would never recommend him. Infuriating that they say you can't be 5 mins late and this guy is 30 MINUTES LATE. He barely apologized. Unacceptable. He was just sitting in his office before seeing me- he wasn't even seen a patient. What is he still working there? He clearly doesn't care about patients. I feel angry to be so disrespected to this provider and his entire staff. I've already written a poor review for him elsewhere and his reviews aren't good on those sites either. I've never been promoted to provide a review for a Swedish provider so this indicates to me that you, whomever is sending us this survey, know he's a terrible provider. Do something about it.
Swedish Patient
The entire staff was very welcoming and friendly which means a lot! They were also running on time. This exceeded my expectations, and put me at ease. It was an excellent experience for establishing a baseline, and new provider experience. I'm grateful to see Dr. Nymeyer and this office for routine skin care moving forward!
Swedish Patient
I don't appreciate getting treated like a piece of livestock.
Swedish Patient
My provider heard my issue, physically examined, listened to my concerns about medication interaction, and provided me with a solution. I appreciate solutions provided in first visit, especially in dermatology where follow up appts. Can take months.
