I called the office prior to my child upcoming appointment to see if we could have a Covid vaccine scheduled for that day. I was told by the person who answered the telephone that I could just walk over to the clinic and get it. That was not the case when I came to my child appointment. I had to make another appointment for him to get the vaccine. Please educate your staff on Covid vaccine clinic availability. Making sure people are able to get vaccinated when they are able is extremely important.

Me, myself, and all four of my children have been patients at this actual doctor's office. I've never had any company problems. I've never had any issues, always been professional, very informative, and I'm very happy to give anybody the name, so they can also be seen by these providers here, because you guys are amazing.

I'm a homeschooling parent and feel I shouldn't be judged for that choice. Although I respect this provider and his knowledge of medical care, I don't feel he understands what my child needs when it comes to their education and do not need to be told that my child will eventually have to go back to school. My child is receiving a well rounded education. I am considering changing to a provider that does not judge a parents choice to homeschool their child.

Office is great but the Covid check in process needs to improve. When I call to check in shouldnt have to go thru menus and listen to 10mins of messages. There should be a direct check in number.

I have been going to Dr.Dehner for the last 18and1/2 years and now I have 3 children and they all go there. Also I moved to Middleboro last September and no matter how long the drive may be I would never want to go anywhere else.

This office and this provider is terrific they are hands down the best provider that I would recommend for anyone that I know with a child. Dr. Dehner was also my pediatrician, so he knows what he's doing. He's been doing a really long time, and I really trust him and really liked him and so do my kids. Thanks. Have a great night.

We did Covid testing. Still waiting on results. Unhappy with the fact that I know of people who have been tested and have gotten results in less than an hour- we're now onto day 2 with no results.

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.
