Due to Covid 19 a face to face appointment was not done., however the telephone appointment was done and went otherwise exactly like an office visit. I was satisfied. I wasn't rushed. I got to ask questions and report my current condition. My doctor took the time to explain health information to me and explain instructions for my care. Days prior to this appointment I was called and the phone appointment was explained to me.

I wish I could rate dr. Patel higher then a 10. He is the best doctor I've ever dealt with. When we got my blood pressure down he looked happier then i did. He really cares and i appreciate that. I also appreciate {Name} being so prompt and making small talk while setting me up before and after the appointment, and calling with my blood work results. Together they are the reason I fought to get my insurance switched (I had cigna) a million out of 10 stars.

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.
