Aoyama David, MD

Dr. Aoyama is the best, nicest, and most intelligent doctor I’ve ever had. I’ve been seeing him for 15 years. My former landlady who had a lot of anxiety over her medical problems (with reason) gave me the referral. Since I’d been through some complicated medical stuff, I was glad to find a doctor I trusted.
He listens to you. Not all doctors do. (If you can state concisely what’s been going on and they can’t listen for 30 seconds, there’s something wrong with them.) Dr. A. is a gem.
He always cheers me up, has gone out of his way to make sure things are affordable, and his partner and nurse are wonderful too.
His office has been consistently amazing at getting me in on short notice and there’s rarely a long wait. They are doing something right in that practice that other doctors should emulate.

I’m kinda new to Seattle, and finding a dr. isn’t really that much fun, but I like Dr. Aoyama. I can get in to see him pretty quickly. He seems to run on time. Also, seems pretty thorough, I’ve never really had a dr. write down everything that I say. Instead of just listening he actually takes notes, maybe this is more common but for me it made it seem like he was really paying attention. Parking can be a bummer especially now that the parking lot that was for his building is closed because of the hospital being built, but I guess once its done that will get figured out. Also, its convienent because the hospital is right there so you can go for bloodwork and testing pretty easily.
