    I liked the 1 to 1 talking with the doctor. I could see her and she could see me through the telephone, and it was a very clear connection. She called right on time. She gave me feedback about my health and what our future plans are. So it's the same thing as if I had gone into the office. I got ... I feel like I got the same amount of care and attention. So it all worked out fine.

    Dr. Sayeed is great. I feel comfortable asking her questions which she answers in a way I can understand. I always feel that she listens and doesn’t mind repeating things.

    First of all, the office staff was excellent. They called me and let me know what was going to take place and then when I got to Dr. Sayeed, she answered all my questions. She had gone over my history. She had looked at my recent blood work again. I had a few questions she answered them carefully and completely so I am very pleased with the whole situation and I'm glad that Dr. Sayeed is my Rheumatology doctor. Thank you.

    I was truly impressive Dr. Sayeed from my first visit with her. My husband started this online feedback and perhaps you didn't give her the highest ratings, but I do. I was truly impressed and I look forward to seeing her or virtually in August. Okay. Thank you.

    I never checked My Chart to see if this doctor wrote out what I should do. I think I understood her suggestions but it would help to read it in a report. I will check.

  • Mar 13, 20
    Verified Patient

    Upon arrival I went to the window and stood for a few minutes, which is difficult for me, so I took a seat. It was approximately 5 minutes before the receptionist even acknowledged that I was there. I can understand she might have been busy, but I at least thought she could have said, I'll be with you in a minute. Everyone else was very accommodating. Was very happy with Dr Sayeed.

  • Feb 4, 20
    Verified Patient

    Dr.Sayeed is very thorough. Very true to her word. She's a very honest person. She treated my son [Name] like a human being and not like somebody who is just a drug seeker, like other doctors we've had in the past but that is not Dr. Sayeed, is a very very very good good doctor. We absolutely loved her and her staff is awesome.

    Verified Patient

    The doctor did well explaining my condition and what the medication but the treatment would look like but she seems very rushed when she examined me. It was about a 2 second physical exam and I felt like she wasn't happy to answer all of my questions because she didn't want to take the time. That's it.

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.
