I was seen in a timely manner. Dr.Ahmet was prompt and discussed my previous medical history before going on to my present issues. He made suggestions on vitamins and supplements. We set an appointment to take a EMG test for more information and will then discuss the results. I felt comfortable and confident that Dr. Ahmet knew what he was saying.

The reason for the 9 rating rather than a 10, is not the dr but the facility ... the patient bathroom needed a serious cleaning, and as I was seen on a rainy day -- the waiting room ceiling was leaking.This is not up to the usual Southcoast Health standards I have experienced.

Dr Buraghazi was very professional and pleasant. He listened and explained things clearly and made me feel comfortable. In addition, his medical assistant [Name] was lovely. She has a wonderful personality and made me feel comfortable from the minute she introduced herself. I have suffered from migraines most of my life. Many days they are debilitating. Both of them listened attentively and I never felt dismissed. I am so happy I found this practice thanks to my PCP Dr [Name] I only wish it didn't take so long for a new patient appointment. I do however understand that healthcare has evolved and it is often difficult to schedule an appointment with a provider. I felt hopeful when I left the office.

Hello. My experience in the office was very professional. The provider was able to book me in for a second appointment the same day for testing. However, when I had my referral from my PCP, it did take several months to get in for the wait time. I would appreciate maybe a high-call priority cancellation list. I did have flexibility in my schedule, and I did call the office. I made it to my appointment as scheduled, and that would be my only feedback is that if I could get in earlier, I would have wanted to. Thank you for your time.

When a provider refers you to another provider in there office and they have everything on this patient they should give to them before there visit so the provider knows everything not be blind side and patient has to repeat them self over what's wrong with them.

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.
