Dr. Ecker and her staff were absolutely wonderful!
Each visit is always professional, knowable and Dr. Ecker has a fabulous bed side manner! Thank you so very much!!
Very good experience. Dr. Ecker is a very conscientious and caring doctor.
The provider Dr Ecker is amazing person.She is a amazing person and a Doctor.She is always ready to answer question and always prompt in answering questions via email.Love the doctor.
The only bad part is to make appointments .I have to call the central scheduling system and not the doctors office and I dont like to that. Thats the only thing I dont like.
She took the time to listen to all my concerns. Still waiting for copies of my blood test results to be mailed to me.
When I call I want to talk to someone in the office. I don't like going through a second party.
helpful Dr Ecker is a excellent Doctor
always a good helpful visit
Dr. Hillary Ecker is the best doctor - kind, compassionate & listens.
Very clear about testing needed and very professional in all respects. Overall a very good experience.
It was a telemedicine Zoom visit. Hillary was lovely.
excellent if it were not for this virus and the need to video conference.
love her!
loved the visit via telephone!
This was the first time I ever used the tele health feature. Dr. Eckers team made it easy to use and it worked out quite well for the problem that I had.
For me this turned out to be a better experience than I thought.
Dr. Ecker was simply a wonderful physician who performed my annual physical since the doctor I usually see was very busy. Dr. Ecker asked questions, listened, took notes and paid attention to not just my present health, but, also past health issues I have had. A very comfortable and comprehensive visit and I was extremely pleased! Thank you!
It was my first time seeing Dr. Ecker. My regular doctor was Dr. X. But she retired. I was very pleased with Dr. Ecker.
My visit was good. Labs were excellent!
she is excellent, I have no complaints and three other family members also see her
This visit was a routine physical. Dr. Ecker was friendly, knowledgeable, and very responsive to my concerns and questions. She gave me valuable advice about a medical concern I had and remembered important health issues of my own and in my family.
I highly value my relationship with Dr. Ecker. I chose her because I was hoping to find a general practitioner to establish a relationship with that I can maintain for many years. In Dr. Ecker, I have found someone I trust, someone who is competent, and someone who provides excellent care.
Dr Ecker was very thorough during the exam. Happy to have her as PCP!
Dr Ecker was very thorough during the exam. Happy to have her as PCP!
Dr. Hillary Ecker was excellent in every aspect from her nice welcome to good listening and fruitful discussion about my health issues. I am very pleased and highly appreciate the outcome of my visit.
Very good experience and grateful to my health provider.
I was somewhat surprised and very pleased with the experience I had with this provider. She was knowledgeable and very easy to talk with.
I went to see Dr. Ecker because I fell 2 days prior to visit. she was professional, knowledgeable, and a good listener. She got right back to me after my CAT scan results! She's my new doctor! So grateful!
My first experience with Dr. Ecker was so good, I'm switching over to her as my new primary care doctor.
Professional and friendly staff. Clean and bright office. Dr Ecker was easy to talk to. she took her time with me. She was professional.
I had a great experience and will be visiting Dr Ecker in the future for my health care needs. And I have already suggested that several friends and family members see her as well.
the waiting time was a bit longer than 15 minutes but the care was good.
Dr. Ecker has proven to be an excellent doctor. She shows she really cares about the patient and tries very hard to fill their needs.
I was with a provider for 49 years before I had to transfer to another doctor. Dr. Ecker has lived up to all my expectations. You are lucky to have her.
She is good.
Good.
Had a very good experience with my new Dr. Ecker. Feel comfortable talking to her & got every question answered clearly. Very satisfied w/her.
it was very good
good
Dr. Ecker lacked compassion during my most recent visit. At one point when I was describing my symptoms, she rolled her eyes and smirked. She totally negated my feelings and displayed a level of unprofessional I have never experienced from a healthcare provider.
Dr Ecker is a wonderful Dr. she is caring, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her.
I have always had a positive experience with Dr Ecker
Very good.
Very good caring with good recommendations.
Good experience. Provider listened to my questions and gave me an answer to the best of their ability.
Dr. Ecker is an excellent provider who listens and shows compassion towards her patients. She is very knowledgeable and is willing to answer even the littlest health question and explain it in great detail. She follows up on result as soon as they're available . Thank you very much!
No bad experience. The office and its staff are wondeful. 10/10 experience throughout.
Dr. Ecker always treats me with the best of care. Couldn't be happier.
good
My experience was excellent. I went in for a cold with cough and congestion and body aches. I had a very good exam and conversation regarding treatment and also reassurance that it was not anything serious.
Dr. Ecker is very responsive, which is very important to me. She answers her portal messages in a very short time. I really appreciate that!
Dr Ecker is great but is not connected to my preferred hospital, Swedish Covenant. If I ever need to be hospitalized, this will be a disadvantage.
the physical plant of physicians office is in need of more than a good spruce up: parking lot is in disrepair, counter surfaces in exam room was missing trim and handicap access is poor. someone should try to get around that place in a wheelchair (without help) and see how they manage - it's not so easy. As a matter of fact, that would be a good thing to do all around Lutheran - it's a handicapped persons nightmare (or an obstacle course set up by a very angry physical therapist)
I especially appreciated how much Dr. E. respected my personal beliefs & desires for my own health care. She explained options but respectfully accepted my no.
Everything was great and we appreciate all your good work. Thank You
Dr. Ecker is the best doctor I have ever had. I was sick and she saw me within 2 hours of my call. She followed up with me to see how I was doing I could not ask for a better doctor.
very good
Very pleasant & did not rush the visits. She was recommended.
I like her and I'm going to her from now on
a great personallaty
dr Eker is wonderful
Dr. Hillary Ecker was super helpful and attentive. She was a very good listener and acted in a professional manner. Easy and fun to talk to.
Good experience overall.
Dr. Ecker is professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. I am happy to call her my provider!
Doctor Ecker has been my doctor for a few years now. She is always well prepared for my visit and offer good advice for questions or problems that I may have. I would recommend her to anyone.
She listened to me and my thoughts on what I thought I needed.
Dr. Ecker is very professional and compassionate - She is very thorough in her examination and is a great listener. Dr. Ecker explains everything and makes sure (the patient) I understand my health options and that I have a say in my health care choices.
great doctor! super caring and amazing
Central Scheduling is HORRIBLE! The schedulers are uninformed & appointments always seem to take a long time. Put scheduling back in the individual offices!
Dr. Ecker is a very nice doctor. She checks the computer for all my previous medications, listen to my heart & lungs, takes my blood pressure, asks if I have had any problems and advises me what I should consider = i.e., a colonocopy...
Very good experience - the staff is also very kind and efficient - giving shots or blood tests, etc. -
My doctor is very personable and knowledgeable about my health my doctor takes the time to answer all questions asked.
Positive experience when attending appointment at doctor's office.
Dr. Ecker is very pleasant and is always good with me.
Good experience.
Dr. Ecker is a very thoughtful and professional individual. During the visit, we went over the notes from our last visit and discussed the progress made on these issues. New issue regarding continuing Prolia shots should be answered by ortho surgeon.
very comfortable with visit and the outcome.
she is amazing, pleasant physician. Happy to have her as my PCP
good, informative
Dr. Ecker is very attentive and listened carefully to my questions. She also helped refer me to a new gastroenterologist and dermatologist.
I am very pleased with Dr. Ecker as her manner is very much like my old doctor, Dr. X
Dr Hillary Ecker is very thorough and took the time to listen to my concerns.
Well my experience at the office was good, the customer service rep I spoke with on the phone to have the doctor call me back was atrocious. She had attitude and was acting like I already knew the system. I had originally scheduled an e-visit for my issue and I received a voicemail from someone stating to call my healthcare provider, no other information was given. When I spoke to the rude rep on the phone oh, she acted like I already knew that my e-visit was disqualified. I hadn't even heard that information, but instead of talking me through it, she just met me with a rude demeanor. It's reps like that that make me want to reconsider Advocate.
The Doctor has great bedside manner and actually seems to care about her patients. Her nurse on the other hand is cold and aloof!
This was my first visit with Dr. Ecker. I was very pleased with her. My previous dr. was X.
Dr. Ecker is the best! I shared my experience with her and recommended her to my friends and family.
Dr. Ecker was wonderful. This was my first time meeting her and I'll be going back.
Hillary Ecker was amazing. she treats my entire family and I feel very comfortable with her caring for me.
I am very satisfied and impressed with care and attention my doctor(Dr Hillary Ecker) showed to me in following my health status and solving any new issues regarding my present health problems.I am very grateful to her and the rest of health team in the clinic.
My TSH showed that my thyroid medication should be modified. I voiced this concern to the doctor based on my 13 years with this condition. She did not want to hear my input & would not make a medication change.
I was very pleased with my visit to see this provider. I needed to be seen sooner than when my doctor had an opening so I took this appointment. Very glad I did - very pleasant and helpful.
I thought Dr. Ecker was very kind and respectful. She listened to what I had to say without pressure or judgment.
Dr. Ecker is an excellent doctor. She took her time with me and answered all of my questions.
she understand me doctor esker is the best
Excellent.
Ecker was terrific!
Dr. Ecker is a kind and caring doctor. She listened to me and spent adequate time.
Dr. Ecker always adresses herself to my voiced health concerns, and follows up with ordering the proper tests and procedures which are indicated. It is easy to relate to her, because she works with a pleasant and professional demeanor at all times, and makes the patient feel comfortable. She seems very knowledgeable in her medical practice, and primarily is excellent in calling the patient immediately with tests results within a few days. I would highly recommend Dr. Ecker to friends and family.
I had to get vaccines for school, and Dr. Ecker was very kind & friendly!
