  • Given the ominous name of Cancer on the directions to the building, it was a beautiful facility with caring staff who directed me to the correct office. There was not a single staff member who was not attentive or supportive. I was pleased with the explanation of my condition by my physician and feel confident in his care.

  • I thought that the doctor and the staff were very cordial, very friendly. I really enjoyed my visit. And it's a place when you go, a cancer place, that you're sometimes uptight, but they make you feel really good and they're very gracious. And I haven't gotten any complaints, and I don't have any suggestions of how they could do better. I was completely satisfied.

  • Southcoast health saved my life. So gratefulu00A0

  • Everyone was superb, as always! Dr, Othman was extremely knowledgeable about my medical history, and very engaging regarding future procedures/tests/requirements. Very productive and relaxing visit!

  • GREAT CARE ,GREAT PEOPLE.

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.
