I was a pt of Dr [Name] for several years. Was very nervous having to get another neurologist. Dr [Name] spoke very highly of Dr Stone. I had my first appointment yesterday and I hope to say that I was relieved and impressed. Very knowledgeable and very kind. An MS specialist is not easy to find. Very impressed with Dr Stone! FYI… Dr [Name] is an excellent Dr. Very sorry he retired. I was hoping he would do part time for a while.

I made a mistake. The staff deserves a 4 as opposed to a 1 because they were exceptional. This is Dr. Joshua Stone's staff. They were exceptional in getting an appointment with [Name] knowing how critically ill she was. So that was a mistake. So if you would please make sure the staff gets kudos for being so efficient to get [Name] an appointment. Thank you.

Doctor listened and answered my questions. I hope there will be an after visit summary or notes with some of the discussed information as it can be hard to remember the possible or likely cause of my symptoms. Further imaging was suggested though it's often hard to know the cost of these tests ahead of time.

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.
