The waiting room isn't fancy so at first look I was a little unsure about what the experience would be like.
I was so happy with my visit! Dr. Williams is wonderful!
Great personality and very attentive! He made me feel like I was his only patient.
His dedication to each person that walks in the door is not very common.
I would highly recommend him to all four of my daughters, my Mom and my sisters.

I really liked him! I did have to wait a bit, but I thought he was worth the wait. (It was later in the day and they were short staffed) He was comfortable be around, humorous, and he got down to business. Took me seriously, discussed a plan, and exectuted it. I called and confirmed my appt through the office as I wasn't sure zocdoc had sent the info over: I'd recommend doing that as they hadn't revieced my information.

Wonderful! Dr. Williams answered all my questions :) Amber and Sabrina (the front desk girls) are very helpful as well!
December 14, 2011KL
I seriously don't want to deliver w/any other doc. if i moved states i would come back to WA to deliver.
December 14, 2011JM
I saw this provider for the duration of my pregnancy with my second child, although another doctor delivered my baby, as I had him in the middle of the night. My experience at his office was poor to quite poor. The provider could never remember anything about me, I felt rushed during appts (and I am an easy going patient, had a very unremarkable pregnancy, and had very few questions) and always left my appointments feeling very stressed. On top of that, I had several appointments where I waited over two hours to be seen, two of which where Dr. Williams was called away to attend to an emergency and no one at the front desk let myself or the other women waiting know. Unless you're a fan of assembly line healthcare, take your business elsewhere.

He was very easy going and funny. I like that in a doctor, it makes it easy to get along with. And i totally trust him to take care of my baby during this pregnancy.

I have been seeing Dr. Williams for 6 years now and would highly recommend him to any of my family or friends upon the news of expecting a baby. Dr. Williams is very professional as well as extremely friendly and personable. He has delivered 5 of my children via C-section and I would not feel comfortable with any other doctor performing the surgery on me.
More than 1 year agoShannon S.Verified patient
Everyone in this office was very nice and helpful. They listen to what symptoms you're having and give you a few options of how to fix the problem. I would definitely recommend this office.
January 4, 2013Amber P.Verified patient
