About Heinrich-Karl (Karl) Greenblatt

Karl Greenblatt, MD, a Massachusetts native, earned his Doctor of Medicine from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine in Cincinnati, Ohio. He completed an Internal Medicine residency at the University of Colorado School of Medicine in Aurora, Colorado, followed by a Rheumatology fellowship at the Brown University/Roger Williams Medical Center program in Providence, Rhode Island.  

Dr. Greenblatt was drawn to rheumatology because it uniquely blends the science and the art of medicine. The field is fortunate to offer new and targeted therapies that can alleviate pain and dramatically improve quality of life, yet a rheumatologist still must navigate uncertainty and embrace a patient’s individuality.  

His goal is to provide patients with an understanding of their conditions, empower them to take an active role in their care, and help restore function and happiness. He feels that teamwork is key to achieving this goal.   

When caring for his patients, Dr. Greenblatt’s standard is to provide the sharpest diagnostic skills, knowledge of common and uncommon signs of rheumatic illness, and a strong understanding of evidence-based treatment. Even while striving for greatness, he hopes to bring a sense of humility and respect for the unknown. 

When not at work, he enjoys playing guitar and loves watching the Red Sox.

Provider Ratings

Why aren’t there any ratings?

We do not have a rating for this provider for one of the following reasons:

  1. Provider was newly added to our survey process and has not yet received the minimum number (30) of survey returns.  Check back soon for results!
  2. If this provider’s biography page does not specify practicing at Southcoast Physicians Group or a Southcoast hospital site (Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital), he/she is affiliated with Southcoast Health Network but not employed by Southcoast Physicians Group.  Our affiliates are not included in our survey process.
  3. If this provider’s biography page specifies practicing at Charlton Memorial, St. Luke’s or Tobey Hospital, without reference to an outpatient practice, he/she delivers care in the inpatient hospital setting only; inpatient surveys do not include questions about individual providers.

Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings.  Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.

Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.

Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.

How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and  Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office.  The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
