Took three months for them to even call me based on my primary's referral, then took another two months to get an appointment. My after summary report has items on the questionnaire that weren't even addressed or asked of me. Doctor's bedside manner made me uncomfortable.

Only thing I would say is that when I was called for this fibroscan appointment, I was not told not to eat or drink anything 3 hours before. When I arrived they did adjust my time so that I could still have the test! I was happy about that!

I've been seeing Dr. Berman for about 15 or 16 years now and he has never once disappointed me. He is always kind, he is always personable. He is always friendly. He is always... eager to answer any questions or concerns that I have, explains things in a way that I understand. He's the only doctor that I am 100% comfortable with, not only, you know, being in his in, you know, in his office and going through a an exam or, or a meeting with him, but also... in anything that he says. Any anything that he has to say, I am 100% on board with. I trust him with my life.

Verified Patient

My only concern about this visit was the length of time it took to get an in-office appointment with a specialist. I was offered a televisit within a few weeks, but I was referred to a specialist by my primary care physician for a specific problem and the earliest in-person appt with any of the doctors in the practice was THREE MONTHS out. I don't mind a tele-health visit with my primary care physician because he has been my doctor for 50 years, but with a new doctor, it's not acceptable.

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.
