  • I hadn't been to an OB/GYN in over ten years because of a bad experience. I had done my research choosing one who I would feel comfortable with. Although there were some with good ratings, I felt Chelsea Martin was best suited for me. I read her reviews which were remarkable!! I did scan the others, but I went with my gut feeling. I am so glad I did. She was exceptional. She was very professional, but yet down to earth at the same time. I knew I had made the right decision. She asked many questions so that she could have a better understanding of my medical history. Although I do have certain things done with SouthCoast Health, my primary care provider is with Steward Medical Group. but I'm hoping to get one with Southcoast Health, as I have been on the waiting list for almost one year. I just find SCH a better fit all around. There aren't enough words to express how thankful, grateful and satisfied I am with my choice in choosing Dr. Chelsea Martin. I would also like to acknowledge the wonderful staff. The young lady who took my information at the reception window was so pleasant. She has a smile on her face the whole time. I wish I had her name, but she had medium length reddish hair. I also don't remember the name of the assistant who took weighed me, took my info and made me feel comfortable. She stated I was going to be in great hands! She was absolutely right. Thank you all around for providing a nice atmosphere and a very pleasant experience.

  • I was seen as a "tree" and not "the forest", which, for me, was "A OK"?. Thank you.

  • Hi there. Chelsea is just such an excellent provider. She always listens to me, pays attention to my needs, tries to help me find solutions to any medical issues that I'm having, even if they're not exactly, you know, the way that she would normally suggest. She works with me. She validates and values my own opinions. And overall, she's just a really good provider. She pays attention. She listens well. And I just really feel like she goes above and beyond to provide quality care to her patients. And I just can't say enough good things about her. So thank you guys. Have a great day.

  • My provider was excellent and listened to my needs and fit me in for an appointment right away. My medical assistant was also great and thorough!

  • Dr Martin was kind and informative. I felt well taken care of.

  • Dr. Martin was so kind and respectful! She listened to me and provided exceptional care.

  • This was the fastest appointment I've had at an OB/GYN. I arrived 10 minutes early and I was taking in immediately and seen within 5 minutes after going over my history with the medical assistant. Chelsea Martin was so pleasant and I'm very pleased with her promptness as well as her making me super comfortable. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a new gynecologist.

  • All staff were extremely kind and helpful. [Name] was so sweet and took her time to go through my medication list. Dr. Martin is fantastic & answered all of my questions. One of the women at checkout even called me when I was in the car because I forgot to finish filling out a form, that was above & beyond.

  • Dr. Martin has great bed side manner and compassion for her patients. Even during a very uncomfortable and nerve racking time, she made me feel comfortable and relaxed. I appreciate her support, guidance and positive caring attitude.

  • This dr and her staff has treated me so wonderful and caring

  • The doctor was super friendly & easy to talk to. I'm really shy & she was just so warm & made me felt at ease.

  • Dr Martin is truly amazing I have been seeing her since I was 16, she has never failed me once. Lucky to have her as my OB/Gyn doctor!

  • Dr.Martin is exceptional! She is an outstanding doctor who has the best interest of her patient in mind. She is thoughtful, caring and compassionate and extremely helpful. I feel fortunate to have her as my health provider!

  • Dr. Martin is knowledgeable and very thoughtful in her interactions with me. I have seen many providers in this practice and she goes above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and heard

  • Today my appointment was very good, they removed the stitches from my surgery and I didn't feel it. The doctor has such a hand that goes up and she is careful.

  • Dr. Martin explained everything in detail as to the procedure. Made me feel comfortable and not anxious at all.

  • It was my first time seeing Dr. Martin, as my usual provider is an NP at another location and I needed a procedure done. I was taken in to the exam room by [Name] (MA or RN) who was very nice and personable. She had clearly reviewed my chart beforehand. Dr Martin was super nice, asked me questions about if I had had this procedure before (and I had) and explained the process anyways, to freshen my memory. She was as gentle as could be considering. I was only at this location for the procedure but would highly consider switching to her for routine gyn care. 10/10 experience!

  • Dr.Martin is wonderful. She listens and is empathetic. The other staff were great as well. I recommend.

  • I felt my experience was easy and welcoming. Would definitely recommend to any family or friends.

  • Very professional

  • The MAs and Nurses are always more than kind and caring. And dr. Martin is always knowledgeable and helpful. I'm getting surgery by a specialist and she told me she wants updates and she is there to help anyway she can. Which is always appreciated.

  • Dr. Martin is always pleasant and upbeat. She inquires not only about my health and wellbeing but that of my family too. She listens, truly listens. She is engaging and informed. She is the best!

  • Smooth from beginning to end. I love my care team!

  • Dr. Martin is amazing. She takes the time to listen and answer questions, never making you feel rushed.

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.
