Verified Patient

My appt was for 9:40am and I arrived at 9:30. I was called in my a tech approximately 35 minutes after my appt time and waited another half hour to see the provider. I understand offices can get behind but this was more extreme than usual. What should have been a 15-20 minute annual check in turned into almost an hour and 29 minutes. If patients are booked close together it would be nice if patients at least got the heads up and knew what to expect for wait times if at all possible. Dr Carroll is worth the wait for sure but it impacted my work day negatively.

Apr 3, 24
Verified Patient

On a positive note, Dr. Carroll was extremely knowledgeable, professional, obviously a very good physician and gave me some excellent advice. On a not so positive level, my appointment was at 1020, the doctor did not see me until 1120, so he was running an hour behind. And second of all, he could be a better listener, he tends to interrupt a lot and to cut the patient off in mid-sentence, so one thing that Dr. Carroll could work on is waiting until the patient has said what he or she needs to say before interrupting. But otherwise, excellent doctor, very knowledgeable, very skilled and gave some terrific advice to me.

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.
