Van Ginger's Online Review Report Card

My appointment was canceled 2 hours before before saying they realized they needed more time with me. They stopped refilling my prescriptions and I ran out 2 weeks before. Trying to have a normal life with urgent bladder is hard enough with medication. They said they would have to reschedule since I couldn’t make the afternoon slot they had. This is not an understanding doctor who is willing to put herself in her patients shoes.

She is the BEST Dr I have had yet. she is willing to do what it takes for her patients!!! Understanding, caring, and informative! thank you!!

I would highly recommend Dr. Ginger. She is very pleasant, a great communicator and took a lot of time on my first visit to explain my medical situation and all of my options. Each time I saw her over the course of my treatment, she would recall all of the small details of my situation and would take the time to answer my questions completely. Ultimately my condition warranted surgery and my scar is VERY minimal because of the extra time Dr. Ginger spent on my stitches. Even my GP has commented on my scar being very small and unnoticeable. I'm great now and feel very fortunate to having been one of Dr. Ginger's patients.

I was a patient if Dr Ginger and all I can say is she does not listen to her patients. If you need Kinsey stone surgery, I would look for any other option.

Told me I did not need to be able to do kegels, like a dentist saying no need to floss.

Extremely thorough and professional with being kind. She cares for her patients. I am a difficult case, 78 year old female patient who lost control of bladder and bowels with fifth lumbar surgery. Adding to that I experience numerous UTI's even after catheter removed. Suffering horrific pain in bladder and urethra. She's working to treat all. She is also EXCELLENT at invasive procedures. So wonderful to be able to keep in touch with her through MYCHART messaging. She has always answered me with help. That does not happen here in Sequim. It's a long six hour round trip to Poli Hills Clinic, adding ferry wait times. She's worth that trip!

Dr ginger got me in quite timely to help relieve kidney stone pain from an impassable stone. She provided options and communicated super clearly about the pros/cons/reasons for each. She got me in same day for a ureteroscopy and zapped my pesky stone (6mm stuck just outside the kidney) away with a laser.

I still have issues due to my experience with Dr Ginger. She tore my ureter during my Ureteroscopy.During my course of treatment with her in 2013, she told me how women in China lived with stones in their kidneys for their lifetime. She also told me when I was in a lot pain that my pain level didn't align with my Stones location. Only to get into surgery to discover my large stone has dropped to my ureter since my last scan. At every turn she didn't listen to what I said was happening and discounted my feedback. I ended up in the hospital with an infection in my blood due to the tear she caused during surgery.I still have to see a urologist and nephrologist regularly and I always wonder if my kidney would have been able to heal had she not made so many mistakes.

Dr. Ginger cured my UTI problem by giving me gentle but specific guidances on how to deal with my burning and painful urethra. I truly appreciate her calm and caring chairside manner. She was able to cure a problem which had plagued me for over six months.

Dr Ginger performed emergency surgery on my mother last weekend and gave us outstanding care. She was thorough in evaluating my mother and communicationing w me and mom before and after the surgery. She gave us excellent medical care.
