Dr. Zeller is a wonderful physician. She is knowledgeable and caring. I wish staff would let her do her work without knocking and interrupting. I had a major physical at 8 and another visit was scheduled for her at 830. It's hard to start an appointment at 8 when you just open the doors at 8. Dr zeller needs a special thanks or commendation. South coast is very lucky to have her and I blessed that she is my doctor.

Efficient check in procedure. Friendly and competent staff. Provider is practical in her approach, listens well, is patient kind and compassionate She takes her time and isn't rushed.Logging information into the computer during the office visit is why this provider doesn't get a 10 out of 10. She makes eye contact frequently but divided focus leaves room for errors. For example the after visit summary has a few items recorded incorrectly

I appreciated the MMSE review to watch for potential memory loss and the opportunity to make health improvements without medication. An improvement would be to offer handouts for specific health-related exercises rather than suggesting I find them online. Dr. Zeller is always attentive, thorough and professional. I feel well cared for.

I was very impressed but the appointment booking people. They were very courteous and helpful over the phone. The girl who did the covid screening was friendly and kind but spoke a little too fast to understand and was very loud. Front desk staff was nice and so was the doctor.

Verified Patient

The way the front office screened folks coming in was very streamlined, and social distancing was easy. I felt safe and well-taken care of. This provider, Dr. Zeller, does the most comprehensive physical exam and verbal health history that I have ever received. She is also kind and listens well.

Normally I would be very happy with my doctor, but my doctor was not in and even her office seemed very confused the day I called. There was a lot of miscommunication. I called in the morning and didn't get it straightened out until after 3:30pm. Some of it was office and some was the doctor on call.
Aug 2, 20
Verified Patient

This was a first appointment, to connect with a new primary care provider. I think both the doctor and I would rather have been able to have an in-person appointment but with Covid, this was a good substitute. We have scheduled an in-person appointment in the fall.

Verified Patient

This was the first time I met with Dr. Zeller because my regular primary physician was not available. I found Dr. Zeller to be very professional, attentive and just very nice overall. She listened to my concerns, answered my questions, and I felt comfortable and secure when my visit ended with her. I would not hesitate to see her again whenever my primary physician is not available.

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.
