    Dr Prashad was fantastic.

    Dr. Prasad listens, as well as explains in verbiage I could understand. That is so important for a patient who is nervous about being there, and has no medical degree.

    I scheduled this appt with intent of establishing a new PCP, discussing health concern, and refilling adderall rx. I didn't feel like the Dr asked me any questions in regards to my overall health or was at all curious about my health history. I felt like this appt was rushed and primarily only to refill my adderall. I did not get the all of my health concerns addressed. I had to remind the doctor about getting a new referral to evaluate my carpal tunnel. Overall not too happy with this visit and would like to be seen by a different doctor next time. After having really bad insurance coverage in 2025, I had postponed a lot of my health concerns and treatments. Now this year with some what better insurance, my copay is pretty high and I am just not happy with how my visit went.

    My medical records weren't available so last question does not apply.

    I said multiple times that I wanted to research the new med myself before starting it and she prescribed it right away instead of waiting for a message saying I want to like she did last time.

    I did not get results of my care from my physician after I requested to speak to her via a phone to a medical assistant. If I did not know how to open my chart I would not have known the results of my cat scan. Like I said it's too lengthy to write the problem that I experienced at the Optum Care Smokey Point clinic. Please call me. I go to Stanwood regularly and I never had any issue except the nurse on [omitted] did not return my call to speak to her for clarification on the notes that I got on my chart.

    Interrupted, didn't listen, didn't address concerns, didn't refer me to anyone for my back, hormones or anything. Only offered meds. I didn't feel heard.

  • About Parinitha Neravanda Prasad, MD

    I became a doctor because I wanted to help people feel better and live healthier lives. I care deeply about my patients and hope they see me as someone trustworthy, empathetic, and supportive. I help people manage long-term health problems like high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, and obesity. I also give vaccines, do check-ups, teach healthy habits, and work with other doctors to make sure my patients get the care they need.

    Philosophy of care

    I believe in helping people take charge of their health by focusing on prevention and lifestyle changes. My goal is to guide and support each person in making choices that lead to lasting, positive results.
