Love Dr Stone! So thoughtful and intelligent.
I see quite a few physicians, but Dr.Stone stands out as truly exceptional. He is not only an outstanding doctor but also a genuinely kind and compassionate person. It's rare to say you actually look forward to speaking with your doctor, but that's exactly how I feel. As always, I had a great experience with him this morning in the Portsmouth location. Everyone needs a Dr. Stone in their life! I also want to recognize [Name] [Name] the amazing medical assistant. She is one of the most bubbly and uplifting people I've ever met. She went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and truly brightened my day. Both Dr. Stone and [Name] [Name] are incredible assets to the Southcoast team. They truly bring [Name] to the patient experience, which is something that is both rare and deeply appreciated. Job well done, and thank you so much for the exceptional care.

First visit to this facility and with Dr Stone. All seem to go well the doctor seemed nice knowledgeable and explain things well and the staff was courteous and helpful. So in all, I have a very good first impression.

Less rushed feeling, more listening. Medical assistant should not have acrylic nails so long, overly embellished and unclean.

Very professional to the point and down to earth
Front desk check in was very brief, professional, confidential, courteous. Medical aide/nurse who brought me in to take vitals and appointment prep was a great listener who was methodical and took her time. Dr. Stone already seemed to have read up on my chart, knew what heads come into the room to deal with. I appreciated everyone's efforts today!
Dr Stone was very nice and explained things well.
Dr. Stone is a probably brilliant man with a natural gentleness and affability. He likes his patients, listens carefully to what they say, and responds to their concerns. He would be difficult to dislike!And I feel totally protected by his personal and his knowledge.
The walkway leading into the building should have at least one handrail from curb cut to door in case a patient needs to grab it to rest, or if the inclined walkway is slippery when walking up or when using a rollator. Thanks!
Informative, coordinated staff courteous service! Excellent care !
Everyone is always nice. And they listen to your concerns.
Always a pleasant visit here from the staff to Doctor Stone…Doctor Stone is personable,calm & not in any rush to leave,a Plus with any Doctor…

Dr. Stone is a good listener and seemed very knowledgeable. It did, however, take a long time to get in to see him. Called in October and got appt for January. It was worth the wait. Requested to be on a cancellation list; but was not called. ? if there were any cancellations.
