    I saw a new PA , Ms. Ponte at the office. She was wonderful to deal with, had a caring approach and was very helpful with my new infusion pump. It has different features than my older one that was replaced.

    She was informative, pleasant, and took a minute to explain what the future may hold. Chronic pain is challenging, it effects every aspect of your life. From going to the toilet to being able to plan ahead to visit with family. At least knowing what is probably going to happen and having time to adjust maybe softens the blow just a little.

    There aren't enough positive adjectives to describe N P Priscilla. She personifies the words, compassionate, kind, caring, and dedication. She was very generous with her time and very detailed in explaining her goals pertaining to my care. Priscilla is a credit to her profession. I am very grateful to be in her care.

    Talk to your patients about alternative treatments that are available or new. When current treatments don't work we have to have hope that there's something else out there that can help us with treatments and pain management. It's critical for us to understand what else is out there that can help us.

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.
