Very smooth appointment, "only a physical", but everything from interview to exam to EKG to labs went great.

Verified Patient

I love how Dr. Chesney comes right in, greets us with a smile, and sits right down so we can talk about any questions I have about my child. He makes it so comfortable and easy to talk to him that way. I also love how when answering a question I asked him, he tells me what the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends and then what his recommendation is.Any time I send in a MyChart message, he is always the one to respond promptly, not any of his support staff. I like and trust this provider so much, I've actually just switched over to him as my PCP.

I understand healthcare is very busy but I was not able to get my labs done, there was no appointments available at the physicians building. Fortunately the labs at the hospital were able to squeeze me in because I was an employee (I went to the hospital lab, they were actually closed at the time and an employee there was very kind to accommodate me) I got the results back on my chart the same day, very impressed with that.

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.
