Community Health Care - Spanaway Family Medical Clinic

"They have a doctor's office and a dentist and a pharmacy all in one place this is very handy to have.Because you would have to go to three different places for each of these but not if you are here it's all in one building on the same ground floor.They do not take walk in's you have to make an appointment."

"I've been here twice so far, and each visit I've been treated with kindness, dignity, and respect from the person at the front counter to the technicians and doctors in the back. They're the first dental place I've been to that has ever treated me like a person, and want to fix what's wrong rather than offer recriminations. They were incredibly concerned for my health and well-being, not just my dental health. They were helpful, and respectful of those waiting to be seen as well. I'm looking forward to my third visit coming in early March. Please keep up the good work y'all are doing, because it's making positive changes in our community!"

"Frequently take my family members here for their care, sometimes the doctors are out and we are not notified before taking the trip to the clinic, which is very frustrating and costly. Otherwise they do take good care of my family."

"It has been a hassle finding a place that accepts my state insurance. I was finally referred here through my insurance. Upon first impressions, I was a little hesitant because the place does seem outdated and older. However, I had such great interactions with the front desk, the nurse assistant, and the doctor. They surpassed any expectations I had. For my appointment, unfortunately I had to have my 3 year old with me, but the assistant at the front desk was quick to give my daughter coloring crayons and a packet of different things to color. She even offered her a clip board so she’d have an easier time coloring while sitting! The waiting time was not long at all. Once we were taken back, the nurse was absolutely sweet. She gave me my shot and was very efficient and quick, which is appreciated because I hate getting shots. She gave my daughter a brand new package of diplo legos! Dr. Jaryd Zapatka was wonderful. Extremely friendly, and made the visit breeze by. He even surprised my daughter with a book to take home! He said that they want kids to be excited about coming to places like this, even when it’s not very exciting. On my way out, we ran into a gentleman just before coming back into the main lobby. He saw my daughter and reached into the room near us and grabbed her another Diplo Lego bag. I thanked him but said that we had actually already gotten one earlier and didn’t want to hog them. He told me that it was okay, to take it for my daughter since she can add them on to the others she got. Wow! He held the door open for us, too. Everyone here radiates kindness. I came here thinking maybe my toddler might be a nuisance especially in a professional environment because bringing her isn’t ideal, and left feeling like everyone truly cares, and like I’ve been going here for a long time. I would highly recommend this clinic. The staff here are so hands on and friendly. That makes it all worth it, to be treated with so much respect and as an equal."

"I HATE going to the doctors. I feel like everyone aside from my old ob brushes off everything I say. But this place was the exact opposite! I loved every single person I came in contact with. They even gave my kids coloring pages and books to read while we waited to be seen in the room. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly suggest them!!! Edit, I was sent a referral and I thought that I had to call a cardiologist and set it up. It has been an absolute nightmare trying to set an appointment up. I just got the paperwork in the mail stating that they already sent the referral and the cardiologist will call me. Also, on the paperwork he listed all the symptoms that I said. I just want to say thank you again for actually listening to me and caring about what I am going through and helping me out with the referral process because I was about ready to start pulling out my hair!"
