PeaceHealth Peace Island Medical Center - Friday Harbor (WA)

1 /5 Ophelia Retherford: Always always the worst experience with these people I went and told them my feet need to be xrayed and that my pain was a 6 and a 10 at night, as in a couldnt even walk at night I watched 4 other men who had pain in their wrist rated at a 4 at the very highest get prioritized and when asked why I was told it was because their injuries were rated worse. BS last time I was there I asked the nurse if she could wait before giving me a shot and putting the covid test in my nose because I am terrified of needles instead she decided to shove both objects into my body quite roughly.

5 /5 Jake Knapp: I recently found myself in a complicated medical situation, and the level of care I received at Peace Island was outstanding. Not only did they move quickly and compassionately, but they also managed everything in-house—avoiding the need to transfer me elsewhere for surgery. I’m deeply grateful for their skill, communication, and professionalism. Thank you for going above and beyond.

5 /5 Dan Johanesen: We were vacationing at Lakedale Resort and our 12 year old crashed pretty hard on my bike the first time out resulting in bloody gravel scraped knees and palm of one hand, his left knee was deep enough to possibly require stitches. This was a Sunday and I wasn’t expecting anyone to be open, I found out from resort staff that there was an ER open 24/7. We went here and the staff took amazing care of our son. He was thoroughly examined, his wounds were cleaned up, glued and we went back to camp. The nurse even recommended places to not miss during our stay. I cannot say thank you enough for being there for us, it really meant a lot.

1 /5 S: I had a terrible experience at Peace Health Medical Center two weeks ago now. I had called my insurances nurses line and they told me to go to the ER. I went in, calmly explained why I was at the hospital and than the doctor on call came into the room annoyed sat across the room in one of the patient chairs, arms crossed and said “so why are you here” I explained the situation and how I had vertigo early in the week and couldn’t walk. He didn’t look at me, blew me off and said okay we’ll run some blood work. My labs came back normal. The doctor then ordered a Valium and three bags of fluid. I asked why the Valium was ordered as I wasn’t experiencing anxiety or a panic attack and they stated oh well it will calm you. I declined this. They then gave me three bags of fluid in less than two hours. I went home and six hours later woke up swollen, in pain, and thirteen pounds heavier. I then asked my sister an rn what to do and she said to go to the er. I then had to return to the ER and was given a diuretic because I was given to much fluid for no apparent reason and had now had edema and third spacing. A week passes by and had blood work done through a different doctor and now have imbalances in kidney and liver function. I was blown off by this doctor at the ER and out in harm because of his neglect. Every one I have told this to in the medical field has been astonished and apologetic for what happened to me and that I should have never had to have been put in harm that way by a medical professional.

5 /5 Tom Morio: Had asthma issues and was seen immediately. Was impressed with their care and their concerns in seeing my condition improve rapidly. Dr Matthews and her team were the greatest!
