I was referred to Dr. Cava by my general practitioner, and I couldn't be happier! It was a flawless experience. He was pleasant and knowledgeable. He was very through with the tests he ordered. They use a portal to communicate with the patient's after each test, so you're not left in the dark for a long period of time. After the completion of the tests I was brought back to the office to relay the results of all the tests. I would highly recommend this doctor.

Everyone was wonderful except for the front desk gal who checked me in. She was not inviting, welcoming, or warm. She is the first person and should behave as the person that can make our break someone returning. (She is approximately 26 years old with almost 2" fingernails, my apologies that this is what was the most lasting detail about her).

Explained my medical care in an easy to understand way . Very efficient setting up my treatment and future appointment. Very friendly staff and very professional Dr. Cava , he is always thorough with his test results and has a wonderful relaxed manner .

Verified Patient

Dr. Cava and his staff are always kind and take ever precaution to keep a safe waiting area. Wait time for appointment is usually 10 minutes at the most (consideration of a patients time is important as well as the actual examining and the staff is alert to that). Depending on the medical problem sitting in the waiting room can be an anxiety. Again, I appreciate having a great doctor and professional and kind staff.

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.
