Default Need Endo, or RE in Olympia WA, Tacoma or Seattle

About time for a checkup and I have not seen an endocrinologist for a couple of years and I've moved to Olympia, WA. If anyone knows of an endocrinologist or better yet a reproductive endocrinologist in this area, willing to go to Tacoma or Seattle if absolutely need be but would prefer Olympia. But please name anyone you have liked or trusted. Thank you so much.

I currently live in Canada and I am contemplating travelling to Washington for treatment and was forwarded this link earlier today as one of the clinics in the state. If you are curious about others, you can check here for names and stats of other clinics.
HTH.

Thank you so much BeetleGirl!!! I will definitely check that place out. I used to live in Seattle and went to Seattle Reproductive Medicine. I think the drs there were very nice, I had no luck but you may want to check them out. www.seattlefertility.com

I'm seeing Dr. John Walck in Gig Harbor. He is not a fertility specialist of any means. And he is learning about PCOS along with me. What I like about him is that he checks all of your hormone levels: estradiol, prog., test., DHEA, and he checks your insuline/glucose levels and he checks all of your vitamin and mineral levels. Our appt. are usually quite long. He prescribes bio-identical hormones and other meds. I think, the more you are well read, the better he is. He really listens to the research you bring in. And he doesn't try to 'band-aid' anything...he tries to fix it.
Good luck!

Thanks Kristen!
Dh and I have decided that should we travel South for treatment, we will meet with all the prospective clinics in the area to make the best decision.
After dealing with some really bad clinics up here, we don't want to make the same mistake twice.
