Northwest Medical Specialties

"Li Zhang, MD, is my oncologist and the best doctor I've ever had. She is knowledgable, caring, helpful excellent at sharing information about my condition. The entire team with whom she works from the Infusion staff to those in her Tacoma and Federal WAy offices are knowledgable, efficient and helpful. It is wonderful to work with them. They have made my cancer experience actually a little bit enjoyable. And that's high praise, indeed!"

"I was getting chemo today and had a problem with an infection and needed a doc to do a look see. She is not my doctor, but was willing to look. She was able to triage some meds. She is always so amazing, and has the most kind heart. The first time I met her was at a wkshopn she was presenting in. Her sharing of the information was phenomenal and her answers to questions were great. I could readily recommend Dr. Namburi to anyone looking for a oncology doc. You will be overwhelmed by her knowledge, compassionate and willingness to help"

"There’s a male nurse there! I feel sorry for anyone who deals with him. I’ve never in my life seen such a resentful disturbed condescending individual. Like...dude...you are a nurse...you should be compassionate or at least pretend to be. He’s scary and completely incompetent at his job!!!! Beware! Please!!! I wouldn’t trust my worst enemy in his care."

"My husband was referred to this office as an urgent referral. After 2 weeks with no phone call, we decided to call their office. The receptionist said that they had the referral, but couldn't schedule him to see anyone at that time, but would call him back. I got him scheduled with a different group within the week. We didn't get a call back from nwms until 6 months later. The worst patient care. I would NEVER recommend anyone going here."

"When I went there for chemo, I was well pleased with my experience. The staff that I interacted with were very caring. Shout out to Carlos who was a pro getting into my veins and sadly no longer working there. I also liked my oncologist Dr Sasha Joseph who was very patient with all my questions and sadly he is gone as well. What's even sadder is they knew he was going to be gone months before my appointment today and they were unable to get me scheduled with another doctor and they did not inform me that I would have to reschedule until one business day before my appointment. That appointment ended up being rescheduled for a month out. Cora the nurse has over time responded less and less to my phone messages - in fact after trying for a month to get her to call me back, I gave up and asked my other doctors if they could help me. I don't believe once has she ever answered the phone and I've always had to leave a message. I fear this place that I liked so much is not changing for the best. I do hope they can correct their direction."
