My experience from beginning to end to visit to see Dr. Chesney was outstanding! The receptionist I spoke with on the phone to get my appointment, the young lady at Dr. Chesney 's check in / out receptionists were all personable and very nice, A welcomed trait that has become scarce nowadays. Dr. Chesney as always was fantastic, he's a wonderful provider that we're fortunate to have.

Dr. Chesney is an incredible doctor and person who truly cares about his patients. I always get a response from him anytime I send him a message. I have never had a doctor that shows so much concern or compassion for a patient. I tell everyone I know about the exceptional care he provides. I hope he never retires.

I have been Dr. Chesney's patient for as long as he's been in practice in Mattapoisett/Fairhaven. He is outstanding, and exactly the right doctor for me. The office staff are outstanding, as well. [Name] the technician was professional, but very friendly, and the receptionist was wonderful. Even the phlebotomist was excellent. Southcoast Health has always met my needs, and most of my family, too. May you always thrive, and stay right where you are!!!! Thank you for caring about me.

I waited over 30 mins in the room for provider to see me . My time is very valuable just as his is also . Then spent at all less than 10 mins w me - and was supposed to refill my prescriptions and I went today to check on refills and he never ordered them at all . Service in this office has gone down hill . I have been a patient for over 25 yrs and in the past several years it has been going down hill.

The office is usually always very quick to call me back with an appointment as needed so this particular time I thought it was odd that several hours had passed without any response, but then Dr Chesney called himself to see how my daughter was doing and if we still needed an appointment. (Apparently the office had called back hours ago and left a message but must've misdialed as I never got the call). They still got us right in for an appointment on a busy Friday afternoon. Any other office might have just dismissed us and moved onto the next patient. Thank you Dr Chesney ad staff for actually caring about your patients!

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.
