  • Love Dr. Somerto. Have gone to her for years for various medical reasons related to neurology

  • Yeah, the appointment was on time and I was answered all the questions that I had and I felt very good about it. Thank you.

  • Self checkin seems to be causing some patients a problem meaning staff needs to come out to help them. Also, I've been in 3x in the last month or so and the crowds seem to be growing. No slowdowns yet as Rosebrook staff always comes through no matter what. Good people at every level.

  • Very good appointment. Listened and addressed concerns

  • They listened and explained what I could go through and take things as we go

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.
