I never went to her as a patient. But, she used to live in apartments I used to manage. And, she was one of the strangest, rudest people that lived there. I was pregnant at that time with my first child and looking for a doctor. After meeting her, I said there is NO way I would choose her as my doctor. SORRY!

I have seen Dr. Cowell off and on for several years. (Off only for having a insurance company that did not permit me to see her) Prior to seeing her I had the same doctor for 15 years. A move brought me here and to meeting Dr. COwell. The office is very clean, Dr. Cowell is highly competent, she is very thorough, listens to what you have to say and looks at you while you talk not her clip board! I have reffered several women to her clinic and so far they are all pleased. As another poster mentioned she does call after hours to check on you and keep you informed. I am so glad that we have her in the area!!

I saw Dr. Cowell years ago, and she mis-diagnosed me with a vaginal infection (vaginosis I think) and put me on an antibiotic that weeks later caused a yeast infection. She left that clinic in Puyallup and I went to see a replacement Male Gynocologyst and he let me know that she did misdiagnos me and I had a irregular pap because of a yeast infection and I need to stop taking the antibiotics. I will never go through her again, especially now that I am pregnant and reading others comments on this board.

I really like Dr Cowell, she was incredible during our first pregnancy and resulting miscarriage, calling even well after hours to make sure I was ok. I don't know where the other reviewer is getting the idea that the office is not clean, they are very sanitary and overly cautious. Highly recommend!

Her waiting room and exam room maybe welcoming and clean, but the medical tools she uses are far from sanitary. I went in with no infection before my pap and after I ended with a vagina infection and losing my baby. And then to top it all off she blamed my body and told me that instead of having a DNC it would be easier to have the fetus come out of my body naturally. Which mind you it could take 3-6 weeks. It was bad enough I miscarried and then she wants me to walk around with a dead baby in my body. I don't think that all the cells are working up there. Then the office staff is out of there mind too. I had a c-section with my first daughter which was not the best. My recovery sucked and I was in so much pain. I didn't want to go through that again. At Good Sam Hospital they make you have another c-section even if you have had a VBAC before (legal). And when I brought up my concerns with the doctor and staff, the blank stares let me know real quick that they don't care.

I have gone to her for 8 years and think she is wonderful. She is very thorough, easy to talk to, takes her time with you, and always makes me feel she is truely concerned for my overall health and well being.
