The front desk needs help to answer the phone

I have such gratitude to the Universe for having Dr. Robins on my team and fin my life. He has seen me through some very difficult times. He is an extremely knowledgable, professional, and caring doctor. He certainly should be written up as a "doctor of the year."
Positive as usual!
Dr Robins excellent person & physician
Cordial, connective, informative, unhurried, and resourceful.
The doctor has been my GP for several years and I hope he will continue for several more.
Telephone for follow-up meeting--ridiculous wait and then no answer to my two calls. Had to visit office to obtain a scheduled meeting date and time.
Good Experience: Dr. Robins essentially "takes care of business."
As always, my doctor and all other providers treated me with courtesy and respect. They answered all my questions and were very helpful.
Dr. Robins has treated me with respect, and has made my complex medical history more manageable.
It was just a check-up. The network was having problems, which caused delays, but everyone was very friendly and communicative. Despite the fact he was running behind, the doctor did not rush things and was open to questions.
Dr, Robins is an excellent physician and I always leave having felt heard and my concerns addressed
Great provider who listens to my concerns and does not make me feel judged.
Dr. Robins is an excellent provider. He is knowledgeable and kind.
Dr. Robins is always very aware of my overall health condition. His explanations are always very clear and easy to understand.
Always very good rapport and tempered advice
Working with the computers has been a real problem - with passwords etc. If you make one small error the system shuts down. Then trying to contact the provider by phone is the problem - includes his assistant. I really don't need so much music!
I love Dr. Robins. He and staff are the absolute best always.
Dr Robins is great
Dr. Robins is an excellent doctor. He is always kind, thorough, and utilizes shared decision making efficiently.
Doctor Robins is an excellent doctor. He listens attentively and answers all my questions, usually giving me different options to choose from which I appreciate. Dr. Robins is knowledgeable, approachable and extremely competent. I am glad he is my doctor.
Excellent visit
Dr. Nikolas is such a professional in all regards - I consider Dr. Nikolas my doctor for life, if that is possible. He is excellent at his work.
Very thorough... exam and blood work.
Very kind, thorough and knowledgeable
Short wait time. Everyone was very courteous and helpful.
Plenty of time to discuss and reach conclusion on issues raised
I felt very satisfied after my appointment with Dr Robins. He is an excellent physician who is not only knowledgeable and up to date on all aspects of his area of expertise, but is one of those rare physicians who actually takes the time to listen to their patients. He helped me realize that I was approaching one of my problems from the wrong perspective. He makes sure that he knows his patient's medical files before the appointment, and thoughtfully helps the patient understand the best approach to their problem. My only problem after my visit was that I realized that I took up too much of his valuable time. He was too kind to stop me from asking more questions. I only hope that Dr Robins is given adequate support so he'll stay in his position.
The provider was very friendly and helpful. I felt really taken care of.
Dr. Robins, EXCELLENT addition to this practice.
Doctor made me feel like he was interested in my and my health. He talked to me in a way that was very easy to understand. He made me feel very safe and like I was in capable hands.
Dr Robins is an excellent PCP, he always takes sufficient time to explain things and diligently answer all questions. I wish the wait time for an appt wasnt so long, and that the hold time on phone calls to the clinic weren't so long.
I've had very good doctors at Legacy Health during the last 37 years. Dr. Robins is among the best. Dr. Robins is a good listener, a trait that is important in the medical profession. I see Dr. Robins for my yearly physical. Although I don't expect him to remember me, I'm pleased to notice that he has taken a few minutes to go over my chart prior to entering the consultation room. I do not feel rushed when seeing him. I'm lucky to have him as my PCP.
Listened to me
I always look forward to my appointments with Dr Robins and his staff. Everyone is engaged and pleasant. I feel confident in their care. Dr Robins is excellent. The MA was very knowledgeable and helpful.
Dr. Robins was very pleasant and very patient in eliciting information from me. His medical expertise is superior! An excellent doctor.
Good experience.
I am generally afraid of doctors, but that all changed since I have been seeing Dr. Robins. He takes the time to listen and talks to you not down at you
Dr. Robins takes the time needed to be thorough and kind in discussing complex medical issues. I always feel heard and respected. Even though he was careful to say that he may or may not be able to find answers for me, he made it clear that he cared and would be thorough in trying to do so. I left feeling hopeful and clear about our next steps. MUCH better experience discussing this issue than with most providers I've seen in the 20+ years I've had this problem. If nothing else, being treated like a human means SO MUCH.
Dr. Robins is the best dr. He always listens to my concerns, he is very knowledgeable, he is always kind, he always treats me as a partner in maintaining my health. I hope he can always be my pcp.
Robins is great.
I had a very good visit and everyone was very courteous and informative.
Thoughtful, shared a number of ideas to help with my problem with hot flashes
He is thorough, patient, professional yet personable, open, and knowledgeable.
Allwas good
Great!! Forgot my list of health questions, but somehow over the course of our conversation they all came up anyway.
I didn't feel he listened to me when I said I had the sinus infection for quite awhile and I felt the only thing that would help would be an antibiotic - He gave me Sudafed that did nothing to help in 2 days I went to Urgent Care in St. Helens and got an antibiotic - by then I had pink eye from infection when I called your office to get eye drops. They said I would have to come in again - after I had been there just days before - NOT HAPPY!
Dr Robins responded quickly and thoughtfully when significant high blood pressure was discovered during a routine examination. Personally followed up with me at home with a second consultation and therapeutic advice.
Dr Robins is an excellent communicator.
Thank you to Dr Robins and the legacy team
The E-checkin is SUPER laborious. Way too long. Additionally, I can't schedule visits via MyChart because LH requires a text validation method and I never receive your texts.
Appointment was changed because of double booking. I got Four emails requesting online check in, even after having completed it.
Dr Robins is always respectful, thorough and explains things in a very straightforward and clear way. I always appreciate that he never seems rushed during our visits.
Lucky me to have such a qualified, intelligent snd caring person on your staff. Too bad you can't clone him! He's the best!
I had to change providers because my old provider retired. I needed to renew all of my prescriptions to Dr Robins. Since then, I have not been able to get any of my prescriptions. Caremark has request renewal of my 7 prescriptions and the office has only responded to one renewal. In the mean time, I am running out of medications. I need help and the office refuses to take my calls. I need help.
I mainly went to get referrals about seeing specialists if he deemed it prudent.
Dr. Robins is a wonderful listener and is great at finding solutions to medical problems. He really cares about people and is very well versed in the current medical issues and procedures that we need to deal with in todays medical world. I really appreciate all that he has done for me.
Satisfactory.
This provider - Dr. Robins - showed compassionate listening skills.
I am very pleased with Dr. Robins and his staff. I feel grateful to be taken care of by him.
Responses slow - days and often not in time frame offered leaving the patient in limbo. Doc. very risk averse, fearful of mistake and patient suffers.
Listened thoughtfully, asked good questions, thoroughly professional and personable
Dr. Robins, excellent, kind, helpful very knowledgeable marvelous memory about personal information so glad to have him as primary care provider.
Excellent care!
Dr. Robins is an excellent provider - good listener thorough, compassionate and practical - exactly what I value in a doctor. I do have a complaint about the info. (lack of) provided by the Legacy lab prior to obtaining blood work. You may call me to inquire about the lab - I don't usually have issue with them but this time was different.
Good experience
Dr. Robins is very caring and gentle and a good listener andis ordering tests that I asked him to order for me. I appreciate that he is taking my requests for additional TSH tests and hemoglobin A!C.
As always, Dr. Robins and his team took the time to listen to and address all my concerns. For each step of my recent journey with a rare condition, Dr. Robins has been there for me. He is one of the best doctors I've ever had.
Wonderful doctor. Puts me at ease
He's our family doc and a trusted advisor
Dr Robins is thorough, and easy to talk with.
Dr. Robins is compassionate, knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and helpful in every way. He is a very good listener and somehow remembers many of the details of my fairly extensive medical history. I consider myself very fortunate to have him as my primary care provider. Nothing but good things to say about him!
All good
Good
Everyone helped me feel more comfortable
Dr. Robins is friendly, yet professional. Listens well. Makes suggestions in a collaborative way.
The MA who put me in a room was more competent than some I have had previously, so that was nice. Unfortunately, with the Epic and other EMR, providers spend a lot of room time on the computer. Dr Robins handles this better than some other providers I have had.
Dr. Robins was exceptionally kind and attentive. He was also flexible in creating a plan that was in alignment with my my concerns. Superior physician.
I have communicated with Dr. Robins numerous times on the MyHealth page. He or his office has consistently responded in a timely fashion.
Dr. Robins was thorough and complete in reviewing all the key medical issues.
The distance from my home to current provider requires 45 minutes travel one way. Finding a new provider presents a challenge for senior citizens.
Dr. Robins is the Best.
Dr. Robins listens very well and he was clear in his questions and his answers and explanations.
