Dr. Chesney was sincerely understanding of my condition. He immediately prescribed meds and referred me to the brain and spine center. An MRI was scheduled.

I have always been treated very well by Dr Chesney. He always takes the time to listen and explain everything. He was especially helpful after the passing of my [Redacted to protect patient privacy]daughter. I would never go elsewhere. I have had him for 18 years.

Staff were very kind when I was in great pain. They all made special accommodations because I was in pain-offered me chairs and wheelchair so I wouldn?t have to stand in line. Dr Chesney arranged for two referrals immediately for specialty care. It?s a wonderful, caring provider group! I couldn?t be happier with my experience.

First, I called at 8:30 in the A.M., and was seen at 11:15 that same morning!!! Next, the Southcoast Staff on Mill Road in Fairhaven, Massachusetts are outstanding. The assistant who greeted and received my initial information, was congenial and thorough. Dr. Chesney, as always, was thorough. In addition, he banters with me a bit to relieve my anxiety. Finally, I like that, in the midst of thousands of patients, he remembers who I am. Southcoast Health is an outstanding family medicine cohort! Thank you for all your efforts.

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: Helpfulness of Clerks & Receptionists, 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.
