Dr. Sofia Bayfield works at the Issaquah Virginia Mason clinic on Gilman just east of Front Street. She's part of a group of about four or five doctors that will occasionally cover for each other, but she makes a sincere effort to see her own patients whenever possible.
Over the last couple of years my family has had need to visit Dr. Bayfield on several occasions for a variety of maladies. Dr. Bayfield relies heavily on the facts that come from examination, but also puts a lot of faith in what the patient tells her.
This has been important to us because some of our complaints have been unusual enough as to be disregarded by other doctors as not possible. Dr. Bayfield was willing to listen to us and take the extra step (sometimes at extra cost) to check on strange possibilities.
In addition to her great qualifications as a doctor she's also got a great bedside manner and seems generally interested in and concerned for her patients. Amazingly, she can remember the smallest details from months prior.
If Dr. Bayfield is accepting new patients while you're looking for a new doctor in Issaquah you can't do better.
