    He ordered a STAT Catscan, and an escort was provided to get me across the street to the hospital so I could be worked in the schedule. Everyone was very helpful and accommodating in making this happen.

    Dr Dago-Oc is one of the best! He listens and works on my medical plan with me! Down to earth he is, but very competent as well. I'm in good hands. I see very medically involved patients coming to that clinic and they are all handled with TLC by staff. The only thing I experience is the shortage of physicians in this specialty clinic as well as others. Sometimes it takes time to get an appointment in pulmonary, but again, Dr. Dago communicates via email with me and helps when he can while I wait for my visit to arrive.

    Dr. Dago is simply the best! He listens to my concerns, and develops a plan that works for me after he has a chance to review all of the records, and test results. I wish there were more MultiCare doctors who took the time, and listened as well as Dr. Dago does. It gives me confidence when I leave that I have a great doctor who is doing a wonderful job keeping me as healthy as possible.
