Overlake Physical Therapy

I’m sure pelvic floor rehab helps but Kathy is a terrible match in therapist for men and women of me too and DV. privacy and control are crucial for support, recovery and safety.nnI’m not sure why my review was taken down since I didn’t say anything disparaging about Kathy. She just doesn’t understand the sensitivity of me too or DV. Please keep this up for other men and women. They should know before starting rehab so they can determine a good fit in therapist. I’m posting this on Sept. 26 2020 at 6pm from Auburn in WA. Last time I gave my thoughts Stacey posted her thoughts within hours of mine which I thought was weird and only because of my low rating. I’m hoping that won’t happen again. all feedback should be received.

Kathy is codependent - I’ve never had a doctor treat me like this. When a patient says not to do something and you are then frustrated they aren’t singing you praise and thank you for “going above and beyond” as you say you shouldn’t be surprised in their reaction. No means no. Listen to your patient and stick to physical therapy. You aren’t “saving” anyone with treatment they don’t want especially when it is WELL out of your expertise. I think confidence in your instance has turned into a dangerous ego. you aren’t a “hero” as you say for working with us poor and African women. By saying that you just show you don’t know the root of racism in that statement and your abuse of poverty or “missionary” tourism in Africa. I’m tired of ”professionals” using others for their benefit in image. Stop thinking you are better than other physical therapists that completed their doctorates. You have shown this patient nothing other than an us versus them mentality. When you do good as a way to boost your image rather than just treating people in general good anyways what’s the point. It has become about you. I will look for other options at Overlake that won’t brag brag BRAG at someone else’s expense.

Took a chance at pelvic floor treatment for pelvic pain with Katherine Golic not impressed at all. Scattered and disorganized beyond belief. I chose to see Tina Allen and got some relief and complete attention to my concerns. Had a friend in one of our pelvic floor support groups who was also treated by Katherine ask how she could also tell about her similar poor experience. Healthgrades seems to have deleted Katherines reviews. I guess either money can buy you out of a corner or Overlake is doing a PR stunt. It’s sad since all of the reviews I saw had good and easy feedback to work on. Be on time, bill fairly, focus on your patient rather than looking for constant praise, don’t violate patient privacy AKA HIPPA. “Saint” work is only that when we don’t require constant praise and attention. Do good when folks aren’t watching for once.

This review pertains to Kathie Golic at the Bellevue Overlake Rehabilitation location. She is a PT that talks about other patients she is treating. Real professional. So much for patient privacy. My wife transferred care because she didn’t like her conduct. This is sensitive treatment and should come with training for those providing it. Discussing one patient with another shouldn’t be tolerated. We chose to update our review from February after learning that she will be doing “missionary” work in Africa around this topic. I can’t even imagine her having the professionalism to work with people of color in another country. Sounds like an excuse to vacation and to get praise. Her comments have been classist and borderline racist. Be careful to review your bills from your visits. She is almost always late to her appointments and will then hold her patients over under the guise of “caring”. We were horrified to find out that my wife was billed for increments of treatment that were longer than either of us remember her being in her office or warned about. My wife felt like she was charged for a lot of time when they were talking socially. Just get down to business and help your patients. My wife is now with the University of Washington. They are compassionate, culturally sensitive have ethical billing and the highlight is my wife is feeling better. Skip the smile and go get care from someone who will actually treat. If we could give her ZERO stars we would. Her conduct should be reviewed.
