Dr. Gorski, actually listen to me. I was going to my previous pain medication doctor for 10 years and he never listen to me. One visit with Dr. Gorski and she listened to everything I had to say. Thank you, Dr. Gorski.

As always my appointment went very well. Everyone at the pain clinic was friendly, courteous and very professional. It's nice to know that when I have an appointment at your facility I know I'll be well cared for and treated as a person and not just as a number in your files. I always leave with a very sincere thank you.

Dr. Gorski went over the procedure and told me about the procedure that they haven't approved yet, but we could still always change over to that one in the future which is supposed to be less intrusive. So I have the option of getting the the one I had before and then changing over to the newest one once it's his perfected. (INAUDIBLE) Thank you.

My doctor left the practice and I was quite nervous with a new provider who was unaware of my extensive background. But she had read my file and was up to date on things! Dr. Gorski also listened to problems I experienced with a new medication given by my old doctor. She prescribed something new to help me. She is an active listener and she heard me. For that, I am grateful. Finally, she understood that, since I couldn't see my old doctor, there was no reason to go to Wareham from Warren, RI. She offered to see me in Fall River! That location is very accessible and, based on the positive experience, I agreed to continue to see her. I liked her very much.

Have been treated before with medication management years before I have been to this facility and have been treated with the upmost respectful doctor by the name of dr Gorski she is a outstanding physician I am a patient with extremely intense anxiety and I have digenrtitive disk disease and my back is broken across my lower back diagnosed by dr [Name] [Name] that wrote reports saying where my back is broken and cannot be fixed with any injections that to get any quality of life back I needed the medications that dr gorski has provided . She’s an outstandingly amazing doctor who cares about me as a patient and my general well being we have explored all options to help me have a better quality of life . She cares about me and that’s rare in doctors now a days she’s a 10 out of 10 the best there ever is I’ve tried taking less opioids to take less medications and she worked with me with different treatment options . How we can improve my experience would be to make me feel when I talk about needing medications it gets taken a little more seriously when I ask for something it’s only because I truly need it. We have tried taking less and will continue to take Iess the only form of improvement is the front office staff not being rude when I call to ask questions and when I talk about my medications I just don’t want to feel sad or scared to ask for what I need. But the bottom line is there is no better doctor I have ever met that is better than dr gorski she is the kindest and the best doctor southcoast has im lucky to her patient and she’s the only person that listens to me 10 stars

I appreciate my doctors because they seem to remember me well. They know my allergies without having to open my chart. They know me personally from being a member for so long with that particular doctor and I trust them with my life. So, I like the fact that they know me that well and know what I react to, what I don't react to, what medicines work for me, what doesn't work for me, how much pain I'm in, how sick I am, when I'm not sick, when I'm feeling better. They know everything and I trust my doctor.

They did everything as expected. The wait time was long but that is to be expected with medical appointments. As I am disabled in part with writing I need help filling out readable forms. I am finding less and less staff willing to assist me in that area.

The time spent waiting is always horrible. And sometimes the provider doesn’t spend a lot of time with you- it feels rushed because she has a lot of patients. But overall she is a great doctor and knows her stuff. I would definitely recommend her to others.

From the front desk(s), to the back desk(s), EVERY employee is EXTREMELY helpful and caring. Dr Gorski, Dr [Name] [Name] and the rest of the doctors (team) are caring and truly try to do the best they can to figure out the best plan of action to combat pain and other symptoms that are related to chronic pain. Also, the receptionists/nurses do a great job with communication to their patient(s) and other doctors and any office work that needs to be done for any patients needs. They go above and beyond. Truly a great team of employees.

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.
