Short wait times. Dr. had reviewed my medical records and was up to date on my history. Dr. was knowledgeable, straight forward, courteous, professional. Listened well and addressed my concerns.

Just switched from Kaiser to Regency/Blue Cross. In looking for a new doctor, Dr. Hochenedel has very high comments from patients regarding being a good listener & very knowledgeable. Glad me & my husband found a good doctor! Plan to get my blood test and x-ray (mammo) soon. Just switched (date removed).

The receptionist when I called for an appointment was rude and unprofessional, she did not speak English very well. I stated that I had hurt my back and I was in pain and needed to see the doctor. She told me that there were no appointments and if it got worse to call back. I told her I would not be calling if I wasn't in pain. This person needs better training or should not be working answering the phone. Needs training badly.

First visit to this office, easy check in, got to know my new PCP and ask questions, then formulate a plan for going forward. Staff was able to immediately provide a missing vaccination with no waiting. Very pleased for my first time around.

This was my first visit to Legacy. I just got my Medicare insurance and this was described as a meet and greet. The Dr. was great and I got some good advice on dealing with my knee which I hurt a few weeks ago.

My husband and I have been seeing Dr Hochenedel for 17 years and have been very happy with his care.

---

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
At last visit, office person followed me to exam room asking if I would be discussing an add'l health issue. The office wanted a second copay if so. likewise, if an existing issue is discussed at an annual exam (no copay), there would be a copay. This practice circumvents the free annual exam!

Good atmosphere in office. Only remotely negative was my height measurement was keyed incorrectly (too short) into system, which affected my BMI index.

---

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
They slipped me in the very first business day after I called. They even called later that afternoon to see if I was in any pain and needed to see someone over the weekend. I was very impressed and thankful.

---

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
the doctor visit what's the best I could possibly imagine they answered all my questions and dealt directly with the issues that I wanted to deal with in a professional and intelligent and very helpful way

---

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
It took two attempts to schedule my appointment. I called to schedule and was told someone would call me back. No one did. I called again (not sure if it was the same day or the next) and I was transferred to someone who had to go find the schedule and then find me a time slot. A "scheduler" would be a big help. I also called for a prescription refill because there were no refills on the prescription. I made my request and checked with the pharmacy who had not received the Rx. I needed to do that twice. The third call resulted in the Rx being sent to the pharmacy. I was given a call from the clinic saying it had been sent. I have been seeing Dr. Hochenedel for a very long time. I think he is awesome. Both events were very frustrating to me as a patient. These seem like people and process problems that need to be addressed.

I have been working with Dr. Hochendel and assistant (name eludes me at this moment). They are great. [details deleted to protect privacy]. I appreciate the dignity and honesty that Dr. Hochendel exudes. My dad loves him. He thinks he is "nifty." I am so impressed by EVERYTHING that we discuss: living at home, driving, his whole life and not just the numbers. The assistant gets back to me in a timely manner so that I can make the right home-decisions for him. I also appreciate Claire (social worker) She also works well with my dad. I hope that I have such a caring team as I grow older.

I might consider switching to Legacy Health Insurance rather than Providence because of your handy lab and imaging facility on the same floor next to the doctors offices.

My experiences with Dr. Hochenedel visits have always been the best.

---

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
The doctor visit was fine, but there has been very little follow up. I was told they would order an MRI and get ahold of my insurance to cover it. It has been 2.5 weeks since the appointment and very little follow up or concern (one time no return call, the other time a return call and message said they would contact me when they heard back from the insurance). They have not asked, can I walk, is my back better, are you still in pain, etc. I am not that impressed (also my Doctor and his assistant doesn't work Wednesday so you can really do anything on a Wednesday but leave a message). I don't come to the doctor unless I am really hurt or sick....so I would think I would get more attention and follow up than I have. I will be switching doctors soon. I am just not very impressed (mostly with his staff and their follow up).

---

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I have gone to Dr. Hochenedel for many years. I appreciated the wonderful care I have had. Now that he is with Legacy it makes me a little nervous that they may not continue taking Providence patients in the future. They did not tell me this I understand this just from hearing other situations.

---

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I have total faith in Todd, he is extremely responsive, professional and caring!!! If he were otherwise, I would seek another physician...(Note I said Physician and not provider)

---

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
after seeing my physician I was sent to the lab next door and was required to re-enter all my insurance information. Your information system does not talk to one another. If it does not it needs to be fixed.
