Dr. Ringerwitz is excellent. I called at 8:30am when the office opened. I had covid 3 weeks prior and had been testing negative for 1 week. I was having a covid related complication and they told me they had no sick that day or the next. That a nurse would call me soon and go over things. A nurse finally called me back at 11:45. When I told her what I told the secretary about my health she said they should have given me an appointment. I have been. Patient here at the office in Swansea for a long time. Anytime I call for a sick appointment this same thing happens. They don't have any appointments for several days.

My experience at...with the physician was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable, extremely helpful, explained everything clearly and completely, and I had complete confidence in the visit and the support staff, as usual at Swansea Family Practice. So I have nothing but good things to say about the institution, about the people, about the staff, and about the physicians who work there.

Everyone was very efficient and helpful. Dr Ringiewicz was very concerned because I hadn't been there for quite a while. He made sure that I was checked out and had all of the prescriptions that I needed. I will be going back for blood work this week. To make sure that everything is ok.

Once I need the appointment, I got an immediate follow up from a nurse, asking me more questions that I initially gave. She was following up with me right away to make sure I would be getting the right service from the doctor. I really appreciated that. She did a good job.

Doctors at this facility excel at building personal relationships with their patients. they are efficient but always take the time to make the patient feel as if health care is a doctor-patient partnership. And they are very knowledgeable. I never hesitate to recommend Swansea Family Practice.

Every time I've been with this provider hes not my primary be it for myself or children. Hes not very nice hes really cold an rude. I seriously question coming back here EVERY time I see this dr. Today was no exception I left in tears. I never feel heard I literally feel like I'm wasting his time an that he could honestly care less about my well being. He really shouldn't work with people. Maybe more behind the scene but Not with people. I really am contemplating leaving this office I've been with my primary dr. Over 20 years an the staff have been rude an just don't make you feel like they used too! I used to feel like part of a family there not anymore even my primary dr. He doesn't seem like he's interested in my well being like before. Never goes over my bloodwork with me i gotta Google my results mychart doesn't explain anything.. This is even before covid happened something changed there an not for the better. I really loved coming here everyone used to be so nice an welcoming now I always feel like a bother an trying to get an appointment now is crazy. Whats the point of having a dr. If you can barely get an appointment. I feel bad writing this but I've held it in way too long. An after today's appointment it needs to be said.

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.
