It is helpful having an expert opinion of what is happening to my knee. My art knee feels better after the Cortisone injection. I feel better knowing how best to treat my knee. Please let Dr. Baltz know that my High Profile Daughter [Name] agrees with his Plan of care. She was pleased that my knee “Required no further intervention.” Weight loss of course would help me waltz thru my remaining years. [Name] is married to a Navy Seal and I have to adapt to their lifestyle during The Holidays.

The doctor was very attentive to my situation and provided me with the necessary information on what was happening. I’ve only been there one other time before and yet I was treated with such special care. Everything was explained and well understood. The staff as well as the doctor were very receptive to my needs. It didn’t take long to see him and we were there very short time afterwards. I do not enjoy going to any doctors office at any time but this office made me feel very comfortable. They are very professional and understand their patients needs. I would recommend that office to anyone in the future.

The doctor was not the least bit friendly or engaging. It felt like he was disinterested in me as patient and basically wanted to move on with his day. His responses to my questions seemed like he was annoyed by the fact that I was asking them.

I should have been given more instructions and encouraged to ask questions. However, the Dr was very thorough and went straight to the problem---seemed confident as to how to treat my problem.

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: Helpfulness of Clerks & Receptionists, 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.
