Dr Blair cares about my wellness.
Everyone we met was cheerful, kind and efficient. Dr. Blair takes very good care of us and meeting with him is always a pleasure. We would rate this appointment A+.
Keep doing what you're doing
He was well aware of my visits that have happened in the past year. He also put in a referral to see my ENT physician that I currently have booked for December 24. In view of my symptoms, he agreed that I should be sooner. He made me feel that he cares about my health.
It is a pleasure to see Dr. Blair and all the personnel in the Swansea office. They are kind, courteous and patient centered. I appreciate all they do!
Dr. Blair is an angel on earth and I am so very fortunate to have him as my PCP. When my work brought me to Boston I kept him as my doctor and I happily drove down to see him when I need to.Thank you Dr Blair for being amazing!
Dr. Blair, specifically, has a kind and relaxing demeanor allowing you to tell your story or ask questions w/o judgement. I am happy w/ his care and have yet to have a negative experience w/ anyone in the office or lab.
From the staff to the provider to the Lab. Always pleasant. Feel like you all are my second family!

Very personable, knowledgeable and caring
Dr Blair is knowledgeable, kind and compassionate. He is an excellent listener and guides the patient throughout the process.
Dr. Blair listened very carefully to my unique circumstances in my life and offered help at any time just to make an appointment with him. He knew my health history very accurately. I would love to continue to have him as my provider.
Everyone is so thoughtful and caring.
I was very appreciative and also relieved that there was an opening for an appointment on the day that I called. When you don't feel well, that means so much to be seen quickly like that.
My problem was addressed efficiently.
We love Dr. Blair he listens and comes up with solutions for our healthcare
Excellent visit Dr Blair listened actively with sincere empathy and compassion This was a wellness yearly check with no problems found. The staff are efficient and friendly Can't speak highly enough of visit
A total comprehensive exam was performed, including blood and urine samples collected. Recommend additional tests and scheduled our next appointment.. perfect!![Name]
He is awesome. No improvement necessary
Dr. Blair is excellent, and a great help. I am glad to have him help with my health goals.
Everything was done well and efficiently from the medical assistant, my pcp, and the lab. I don't feel any improvement was necessary.
On time appointment with primary care physician. Through examine, answered all my questions. The only recommendation I have is that the lab needs to be expanded as the wait time for blood work was 30 minutes.
Knowlegeable, professional, & friendly team. Highly recommend Dr. Blair.
There is no improving this provider. He is absolutely perfect. He's professional. He's considerate. He listens to everything you have to say. He goes out of his way and he is absolutely awesome. Would not go to another one.
I'm absolutely blessed, Dr. Blair and his team are second to noneu00A0
Dr. William Blair is very compassionate and thorough. I highly recommend him for anyone in need of PCP. He's a well-rounded physician, bedside manner and knowledgeable and all around I think he's great. Okay, thanks.
Every thing was perfect snd easy
I am new to this office, since the retirement of my trusted provider. Dr. Blair has a wonderful bedside manner, is knowledgeable about my history and goals. Very satisfied!He's so good, I can't get in for an annual eval. But I booked the next available and know I can call there if needed.
Love Southcoast
Received appointment when needed.Calls are returned when needed.However call backs usually come back at end of day or after hours so when prescription is needed have to wait until the next day.My Chart is very helpful. If you don't remember what medical staff said you can usually find in My Chart.
Dr Blair is caring and a great listener and explains everything.
My experience with Dr. William Blair was extraordinary, an unbelievably tuned in doctor, which I highly like. So thank you very much, Dr. Blair.
I have had Dr Blair for 6 years now. He's been great ....if I good go over a 10 I would.!!
Dr Blair is simly amazing! I am 60 and he is the best doctor I have had in my lifetime! He also takes excellent care of my 87 year old father. He is incredibly caring, listens well and makes sure he addresses all my concerns. I know how busy he is but makes me feel like I am his only patient.Thank you Dr Blair!
"What you did well"- Trained this particular staff with pinpoint focus on the needs of the patient " This absolutely includes the staff in the lab. They're irreplaceable
Always excellent attention paid to me
Dr. Blair is always kind and compassionate. He knows how to zero in on the issues and treat with sensitivity.
Dr.Blair is simply awesome!I actually travel well away from local providers to see him.The man cares and treats you like a person not a patient he needs to work through to get to the end of the day!I would personally rate him as a 100 but that option wasn't given.Dr.Blair is certainly a valuable asset to your health care system!![Name] [Name]
Dr. Blair is amazing.He listens carefully and is respectful, supportive, knowledgeable, and helpful.
Dr Blair came and told us he was delayed and apologized. Then comes in and knows everything with my treatment and when i have next appts
He is a great Doctor and has a very helpful Staff.
Dr. Blair is the kindest, most amazing doctor I've been to! He listens and helps me understand why I am not feeling well a lot of the time, esp. in the past 2 1/2 years since I had my head cyst and hematoma removed!
What can I say after all these years under dr.blair's care and all the associates in this office excellent
Dr. Blair is always cognizant of my past medical history and has the patience necessary to answer all my questions . I feel like as my PCP he is the leader of my team of other specialists who can see my whole health picture. The only issue is that I should have an annual physical appointment and was only scheduled for my next one 16 months out. At least I was able to join a waiting list should a slot open closer to my one year date. Dr. Blair takes a cautious approach and is well aware of my health history. I don't think a patient can be lucky enough to have a consummate professional like him. He deserves a 10 out of 10!
Dr. Blair is outstanding! He has changed my life for the better!
dr blairu00A0is the best
Great patient overall experience.
Everyone is very attentive and kind at this facility. Since I tend to be an anxious person it's always nice to have support staff and a doctor that is as caring as they are. You feel like an individual when you go there not just like another person in line to see a doctor. I would feel very confident referring South Coast as a wonderful option for care.
Dr Blair is Outstanding !!!
When speaking with the Doctor, there is no feeling of being rushed, or hurried. The manners of Dr. Blair is calm, relaxed and interested in the well being of the patient.
I always went to prima care until I recently switched to South Coast. I'm very happy with my doctor. He is thorough and he doesn't rush you out to go to his next appointment. He is a cut above the rest! I definitely found my new medical home at South Coast!
I love Dr Blair - I never feel rushed with him and I feel like he truly listens and cares. Office staff can be inconsistent with responding in a timely manner to messages I put in the portal
Dr Blair is always respectful and caring. I am so happy that we are with him.
