Dr. Charnecki, listen to all my needs and my concerns about what I was in there for today and I was very satisfied as I am with Dr. [Name] [Name] [Name] when I see him on a regular basis since use my regular provider, but he was out of town. So I had to see Dr. Sarah Charnecki today and like I said, I was very satisfied with her like what I wouldn't be but I was very satisfied, very pleasant young lady and enjoyed her very much and I'm seeing her again for a recheck next week from today and that's all I got to say.

The triage of my phone call was repetitive and excessive. After getting a recording and having to leave my # I was called back by someone at the office who went through the entire Covid protocol after I explained that I had a enlarged sub-maxillary gland. She said the Dr would cal., instead I received another call this time from a nurse who went through the entire Covid protocol again. Only after this did I get a call from the Dr. who finally addressed the problem that I called about.

I am a new patient at Southcoast Health and the doctor and nursing staff attended to my first visit in a very professional and personable manner. They were thorough in their questions to me about my past health and any current concerns. The staff also were attentive to my needs for a couple referrals to specialists within the Southcoast system and made the appointments for me before I left the office.

Thought the front desk, nurses and doctors did a great job at providing quick information. I would suggest perhaps letting the patient know the general outline of the visit would be helpful.

A terrific new MD saw me for my exam. She was: knowledgeable, courteous, kind, and thorough. labs were done in advance which makes the visit more complete and meaningful being able to discuss with the physician. Administrative staff and nursing are also very good at what they do. I take my health very seriously and I'm glad to know these guys do as well.

Dr. Charnecki was beyond amazing. We are military and new to the area, she made getting settled into a new office beyond easy. She was more then willing to help me get settled with an allergist in the area to continue monitoring of my food and medication allergies. She listened to my concerns about past issues and started a plan of care same day. From the front desk to the nurse to Dr. Charnecki, I felt very well taken care of and that they listened to what I had to say.

Dr. Sara Charnecki is my new PCP and we have a first appt in person scheduled for Sept. 1!! I have been ill w a GI disturbance and she kindly agreed to “see” me. It was good to be able to speak of my health issues and be heard. She asked differential questions that helped to put my mind at ease about the course of the illness. I very much look forward to meeting Dr Charnecki in person.

Dr. Charnecki was probably the best doctor I have ever interacted with. She listened, was empathetic, and really made me feel heard and valued as a patient. The visit didn't go as planned because it was even more productive and services that were needed but not initially planned on were offered and provided without hesitation, which took a lot of stress and anxiety away from me. Everyone was so pleasant and the facility itself was clean and welcoming as well. Very happy that I chose Southcoast Health and Dr. Charnecki and there's not a thing anyone could have done more to make my visit better.

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.
