I really like Dr. Patel. He's always, I don't know, he just has this really nice presence. He seems to genuinely care. I feel like I've been seeing him for a lot longer than I have been. I've only been seeing him for a few months, but I feel like I have a connection with him and he does that. He gives that feeling like he cares. I think he's been spot on with his care for me. He listens and he gives me all the time I need. He's one of my favorite doctors ever. I really like Dr. Patel and his support staff was all very good too. Okay, thank you.

Dr. Patel is perhaps one of the very best physicians that I have ever had. In fact, there are so many of my physicians presently who think very highly of him, speak very, very highly of him. So I'm very grateful to have Dr. Patel. And it flows to the staff because they're also very kind, very patient, and wonderful, people who realize that they're dealing with human beings and human frailty that goes along with people who are ill. So I'm very grateful for Dr. Patel and his staff. Thank you.

Dr. Patel, as you know, I was there today. Always a wonderful visit, always caring, you know, talks to me about my medication, whether I should take more, whether I should take less. His support staff met me right at the George Lewis office as I went down the hall. They were right there to greet me. In my seven years of going to him, I have never, ever found anything other than courtesy and he knows every single thing about my condition and from my other doctors. So I'm extremely happy. Thank you.

I asked the Dr how long my kidney will last & he said a long time. Not to worry about it. Said it's his job to worry. Said when it came time to talk about transplant he will. I didn't know what to say. I told him that I like to be prepared. I was afraid to push the issue.

Dr S Patel and staff are always concerned and always comforting. Always have a great experience. Dr Patel Encouraging and helps one feel strong . Diane is wonderful and calming. The operators who ask questions want to hear to much info they need not know. Office Staff Yes they are helping patients. Now I understand why pts say To many people that shouldn't be are in their business and SHOULD NOT BE! We should not have to explain to them why we are calling and they shouldn't decide if you speak to DR!

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.
