William Anthony Tanaruno

Before I met Dr. William— my health was neglected and total mess. I took my file to him and left it with him. Provided him 2 weeks to review it and decide if he was the right man for the job to help be my Fastlege. Which is not easy with the chronic and acute health issues I suffer from.

He not only accepted, but he rebuilt my trust in what a general practitioner doctor should be! Someone who fights for his patients rights. Someone who trusts in his patients over any other contradictions. Which is important as a female with a chronic illness living in a public system that tries to do the bare minimum care. Never have I been dismissed for my concerns. He trusts in his patients. He is quick to prioritize a patient in need. And yes this may result in being a little late on schedule occasionally ( not always ) because if he has a patient with a crisis— he will work to make sure they get the care they need. He helped me gain access to kommune assistance that they tried to deny me. Thanks to his many years of involvement and investment in helping get my health “under control”, I can finally enjoy the good days in between the bad ones.

Their offices are on the 4th floor of Madla shopping center. Has elevator access. Is accessible for handicapped wheelchair users. They also have a spare private room in the back, special for patients like me who may need to lay down while they wait, rather than to sit.

I will never change Fastlege so long as we both shall live.

Det er første gang eg opplevde at legen har vore på tidspunktet, kl (14:45), som gjer det endå meir imponerande! Eg kom inn, sa problemet og kva eg ville, fekk det utan problem. Han stilte spørsmål som var nødvendige. Eg syns det er skummelt å snakka med folk, men det klarte eg utan problem med han! Det einaste eg blei overraska over er at konsultasjonen skulle vara i 15min, der eg er vant til 20min, men det spilte ingen rolle egentlig.

Dr. William er en grundig lege, om ikke så pratsom.
Jeg har inntrykket "Does not suffer fools gladly"
Jeg har vært hos ham i litt over 12 år, og er godt fornøyd. Han er lite punktlig, men dette fordi han bruker den tiden som trengs på hver pasient, og gir blaffen i klokken. Han referere til spesialistene når det trengs, og stortsett tar tid til å lese rapporter i forberedelse til besøk, som også tar tid. Jeg har også alltid hat tillit til de som våger å si "Vet ikke" når de ikke vet.

William gir god inntrykk som lege. Han henviser til riktige prøver og medisiner.
Han forstår problemer og løser dem. Jeg føler meg trygg med han som fastlege.
