Jul 19, 2024
What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
A young, new general surgeon that seems to possess very good doctor's skills; and with whom I had somewhat unsatisfactory experience with my previous, early-Covid, post hernia recovery instructions, which may have related to UMich Hospital Alpena's rush to get me quickly released, or post surgery incomplete release instructions, and/or myown lack of questions or misunderstanding regarding post hernia recovery exercise exertions. I would probably recommend Dr. LeMaster unreservedly, given good current surgery outcomes (my second, current, surgery with Dr. LeMaster upcoming) and Alpena area's scarcity of general surgery doctors (i.e. long wait time for new patients). I like Dr. LeMaster personally and wish her well in her chosen profession.

Was there anything that you feel was outstanding?
They listened to what I was telling them, and they were not telling me what they wanted to here by putting words in my mouth. They listened and made decisions as to what they heard. S. J. LaMaster is a very friendly Doctor and I respect her.

Was there anything that you feel was outstanding?
Was NOT HAPPY with scheduling. Not once but twice I had Afternoon appointments both times I was called and told to come in early. I was at work both times.
What could have been done to improve your experience?
Appointment times. I had appointment scheduled for 3:30 pm the day of appointment I was called at 8:10 am and told to be there for 10:30 Am. I was at work and had to immediately leave work and show up for appointment with a two hour drive from place of my employment.

Oct 12, 2023
Was there anything that you feel was outstanding?
Thoroughness
What could have been done to improve your experience?
Perhaps talk more in depth to me.

Oct 11, 2023
Was there anything that you feel was outstanding?
Was in on October 3rd for a hernia check. She said no hernia we will call you to schedule ultra sound. Never got a phone call had to schedule my own, couldn't even get it done till end of month. Never took my blood pressure, or recommended blood work. Thursday I was in the ER getting cat scan. Only to find out I have a mass on my pancreas. Transfered to Munson Traverse City for a biopsy, and received a stint in-between my pancreas and liver, was in the hospital for 5 days with jaundice and septic. I want my co-pay back of 55 dollars. And maybe she should look and listen to the patient. Oh yeah I was literally there 15 minutes.
What could have been done to improve your experience?
She could of paid more attention and actually do her job.

Was there anything that you feel was outstanding?
They got me in right away so I didn't have to go to the emergency room.
