About Harry L. Teicher
My patients and I are partners in achieving the best health care for them. My job is to be an avid listener, an up to the minute educator, to be there whenever needed, and to be as comforting a presence as possible. Their job is to have discourse wit me, ask questions, and follow the plan if they wish. Being punctual for appointment times is of utmost importance to me, as is explaining things in simple to understand language. Being a physician is more about building trust and personal relationship than science and technology.

The Dr was very easy to communicate with virtually, and even helped me to schedule an appointment at an earlier time as opposed to his nursing staff who booked me months out.

I trust Dr Teicher to fully understand my concerns due to his compassionate listening. He puts me at ease with gentle humor and I know he cares

Very understanding

This was my first visit with this doctor. He was excellent. However, GI docs are understaffed at Swedish so it was hard to make an appointment. My earlier GI left Swedish this summer.

Dr. Teicher is awesome. Can we clone him? Induce him to never retire? ;> That's not fair. He works very hard to take care of as many people as possible. He'll have earned his retirement, but I dread it. We should train an AI model on him.

I love working with Dr Teicher. This was to be a Zoom Appointment, but he was running early so we talked on the phone instead. I felt the visit went very well and we discussed the medications Dr Teicher prescribes for me. I have since been being given the run-around trying to get them filled. CVS says they need confirmation from you that you have prescribed these medications and your office hasn't given them enough information. Your office says I have refills. Meanwhile, I have diarrhea and no way to treat it.
