  • My only complaint is not with the doctor but the staff at the check in/out desk. There was one woman checking in staff as quickly as possible. There was a second woman that kept window closed and watched the line increase as she rearranged the stapler, sticky notes, etc on the desk. She didn't help with check in until the line was at least 8 people long.

  • Very comfortable & knowledgeable.

  • Polite, efficient checkin with no overwhelming forms etc. Appointment was 10:30 am, I left the building at 10:45am with everything satisfactorily completed! Would definitely recommend Dr. Cornell; she is a conscientious, caring and knowledgable doctor!

  • My provider is excellent. Sorry, but I can't think of how she could improve.

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.
