Michelle Show, MD

Good

Dr Show provided great service. She discusses problems with me, offers useful solutions and is always willing to listen and consider my input.

The best of the best

Dr. Show is very caring and upbeat. She explains things in a way I can understand. She is very encouraging and seems to be interested in me.

Dr Show is a gem.

I have been a MultiCare patient for 5 years, always bringing my children here too. I have never once complained or requested controlled medications—until this appointment, my very first with Dr. Show (my regular PCP was unavailable). I disclosed a traumatic experience for the first time and, while crying and extremely vulnerable, asked for short-term help with severe anxiety. Dr. Show responded by sighing audibly with an “ugh”, as if my distress and request were a burden or annoyance. She shrugged off my concerns, dismissed why my current medication wasn’t helping, and then bizarrely pivoted to complaining about how difficult it is to find a psychiatrist for her own daughter—turning my traumatic disclosure into a comment about her personal frustrations. I felt blatantly treated like a drug seeker despite my long, clean history. She offered zero empathy, zero alternatives, and zero support beyond suggesting I “take an extra pill” of the medication I am currently taking (which I’d… already said wasn’t sufficient). The entire visit left me re-traumatized and far worse than when I arrived. No one from the clinic even bothered to check on me afterward. This was not poor bedside manner—this was a complete failure of compassion and professional boundaries. I have filed formal complaints with MultiCare leadership, the Joint Commission, and the Washington Medical Commission. If you need genuine, trauma-informed care for anxiety or mental health, avoid Dr. Michelle Show at all costs.

Horrible visit. I saw Show while having a mental health crisis. She dismissed my needs and shifted the focus to herself and her daughter. I left worse off than when I arrived.

Dr. Show, Jana, and her whole office are always kind, thoughtful, thorough, and respectful to all their patients! They listen and keep their patients informed of everything. They are an amazing care team!!

I felt heard for the first time in this facility for a Long Long time

Dr. Show provided excellent care! She was warm and welcoming, definitely prepared for my visit (I felt like I had been to the office before this visit), listened to my concerns, explained In detail questions I had re labs and more.
