My appointment was for 1:45pm. I was taken into the room at about 1:55pm, but did not see anyone until 2:50pm. I was in the room for an hour without speaking to anyone, until I walked outside and said that I had not been seen in the 45 minutes that I had been in the room for. The front desk had a sign saying that Dr. Seng's appointments were running "On Time" and yet I was there for over an hour without seeing her and no one informed me that she was running behind schedule. Additionally, once she saw me, she spent about 10 minutes with me and told me that she needed to run labs before she could see me again. I was there for over an hour and a half all together, and the only thing that I was told was that she needed to run labs. Overall, I was very frustrated with the entire experience.

Pleasant, curteous,and friendly staff. Listened to my needs and concerns. Dr. Seng poised the reasons the anti hormonal pill could be beneficial. I know I can call the office should I need support before my appointment in April.

Told me as soon as I arrived that I had nothing to worry about. The Dr put my mind at ease. I WAS VERY CONCERNED BEFORE THAT SOMETHING VERY SERIOUS WAS WRONG.

Provider answered all of my questions well. Was very perceptive and acknowledged my statements. I had to go back to the clinic later in the afternoon because I did not know that I needed to have labwork done after the consultation. The Southcoast OB-GYN clinic would usually do labwork before consultation, so I had assumed that I was done when the doctor left. My printed summary did not show that the labwork would not be done within the same day but on the next which is in May, contrary to what was indicated on the digital copy of my summary. I'm an immigrant; yet to get used to the procedures here. It was just a minor misunderstanding, but I would like to be told what comes next in the future to avoid a misunderstanding/miscommunication like this. Other than that, the reception, care and service were excellent.

I got in relatively quickly, saw the doctor almost immediately and didn't spend a ton of time there, which was very good for the the quickness of being helped. So I thought that was great.

Felt like the dr wouldn't let me finish a sentence while trying to give a history. It was a prolonged history but it was applicable.

My daughter was suppose to be called when I was in with the doctor. The request was made a week prior to the appointment. I wouldn't have made the appointment if the promise of my daughter being on the phone to listen and ask the doctor questions in regards to my treatment.

My appointment was 1:45 but I didn't get into see the Dr. until a little after 3:00. I was told the Dr was runnning late when I was escorted into a room to wait away from the waiting room but that I was the next patient to be seen. I waited in that room for about 15 minutes then brought to the room I was to see the Dr in. There I again waited for about 20 minutes before the Dr arrived. The nurse did stick her head into the room at a point and said again I was next to be seen. I finally walked out of the office area approximately 3:50. A long afternoon for a routine follow-up.

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.
