About Sami Assad

Dr. Sami Assad earned his Bachelor of Arts with a concentration in Psychology from the University of Rhode Island in Kingston, Rhode Island. He then went on to obtain his Doctor of Allopathic Medicine from St. George’s University School of Medicine in St. Georges, Grenada in the West Indies. He completed his Family Medicine residency at the University of South Alabama in Mobile, Alabama.

His personal philosophy of care is that a little kindness goes a long way. He also tries to personify what he preaches and approaches health from an all-encompassing perspective where diet, exercise, sleep, stress, and mental care all contribute to a well-rounded picture of health. He himself is passionate about exercise and routinely participates in HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training), CrossFit, and weight training classes. His passion for exercise has also inspired his planning to hike all 40 peaks over 4,000 feet in New Hampshire.

His inspiration to become a doctor came from a personal loss at a very young age. He wanted to be in the know of what was happening and why things were occurring. Those experiences and the want to make sure no one felt in the dark about their healthcare propelled him into medicine. To him being a part of Southcoast Health means having the opportunity to provide care for the community he calls home.

When not at work he loves to take part in his exercise routines and dabbling and experimenting in the culinary arts.

Sami speaks Arabic and Russian

    Dr. Assad is outstanding and I've recommended him to several members of my family and friends when their PCP moved out of the northeast or retired. He's extremely attentive, patient, and sensitive to his patients needs and concerns. He also strikes a refreshing balance between being forthright without ever coming across as condescending.

  • Nov 6, 24
    Verified Patient

    My only concern is the patient portal. It's difficult to navigate and I am computer savvy. Towards the end of the questionnaire that one would fill out for the annual wellness visit it was difficult to navigate. Instead of advancing to the next page what it did was it sent you back to 3 or 4 pages before. Very confusing. Please have IT look into this. Otherwise very good visit. Dr. Assad is an excellent PCP and the Tiverton RI staff are great.

    I've only seen Dr. Assad once and I can already tell he's the most attentive doctor I've seen. I brought issues to him that I've brought to other doctors and I felt heard by him. I did some research before selecting him as my PCP and saw online reviews as well as personal reviews of friends who have seen him, and everything I've read is true. The empathy he has shines brightly and that's very important when determining whether you can trust your doctor or not. I will be absolutely recommending him!

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.
