    I love this office. I've been followed by Dr. Gorski for about 15 years in. The girls are very knowledgeable and friendly when I'm in person and had helped me a lot on the phone, how to get registered and stuff. They've been very kind and Dr. Gorski has been very diligent to my health needs things that matter and thing is that I think maybe we should change. He's open to a discussion and really wants what's best for my health. Always tells me of new things that we might want to try for the pain. And she's been really a wonderful doctor to you have and I hope she practicing many years to follow me. They always feel better when I after I speak to her and more confident that somebody's looking up to my health. Thank you.

    My visit on Jan. 21 was much better than my previous visit. I saw the provider that I was supposed to see this time. Our visit was concise yet very informative. She thoroughly explained everything to me about the procedure I would be having. The staff was efficient and most courteous. Had a wonderful visit this time! Thank you!

    I am a patient of Dr. Gorski for over 5 years now and I am also professional. I'm a nurse and I also have a degree in substance abuse counseling and I married to a physician. And in all my years of looking for professional help, someone who has compassionate but yet strict but also took into consideration, my physical and emotional complaints, Dr. Gorski has been by far the most professional and empathetic yet strict doctor that I've ever had, who looks at things in a methodical approach and does things the right way and the best way for for the patient, myself and I would recommend her to anybody and everybody cuz she is amazing, like a truly Wonderful doctor who really does put the patient first above anything else.

    Dr. Gorski is compassionate and understanding. When I go for my steroid injections I am always in good hands … she completes the injection swiftly and with accuracy. I wouldn't even think about going to someone else to help me with my chronic back pain issues.

    There is not anything needed to improve Dr. Gorski. She is attentive and kind and caring to people like myself that suffer with chronic pain in many areas she was by my side weekly when I was on a feeding tube and trac a two and a half inch gap in my throat when I was going through the worst accident of my life and she helped me when I was suffering the most. She listened and cared about me and i don't know if I would be recovering as much as I have without the support of Dr. Gorski without her help I may not be alive today. She's the best of the best and I'm lucky to have a doctor in my life that cares about my health and well being. I don't know a more professional and kind doctor then Dr.Gorski she is literally a life saver and that's not a expression it's reality. I'm blessed to have somebody in my life with compassion and genuine care of my health and well being who she is as a person it's a kindness I could never repay. I'm just one of the lucky ones that had the opportunity of having being a patient of hers. Thank you for everything.

    Phone system kept hanging up on me and the doctor. She has to call me back three times. Then she said she would send my meds to pharmacy an book my injections. It would have been better if there were no interruption.

    Dr.Gorski has been my pain management Doctor for 20 years. I met her at [Name] [Name] 's hospital 20 years ago. She left to come to Southcoast Brain and Spine Center. I followed her to Southcoast. She is one of or the finest Dr's I have ever known and I have been disabled for 30 years now. Her team in the office as well as the team at the surgical center are top notch. I don't know what I would have done if I did not find Dr.Gorski. They are the hallmark of pain management programs in South Eastern New England.

    Everything was the way, it should be. The way a doctor should handle her patient, or his patient. Concerned about why they need her help, concered and talked about what medications would be best or right for them. And the bed side manner of Dr. Allison Gorski is more than excellent. If that's possible. She is a very conscientious conscientious doctor and very aware and caring of her patients. I wish doctors would were like Allison Gorski. She is one of a kind.

    I really appreciate the continued ability to access a telehealth visit since I work 40+ hours and it is more convenient than having to drive to the appt, wait in the waiting room then see the Dr. It really saves me alot of time and I truly appreciate that. I think that everyone at the Pain clinic has always been professional and compassionate.

    I pay a very high cost for these appts. My care plan is either never given to the doctor's staff or the staff is in incapable of following instruction. I have nothing but a bill between appts. Every time my follow up visit consists of me, the patient communicating to the doctor what the staff has failed to do. I'm sent off with nothing but another bill and a 4-8 week wait.

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.
