Within Atrium Health, we use survey results to better understand what is important to our patients and how we can improve healthcare experiences. The overall Patient Rating score comes from the questions on our Medallia Patient Experience Survey. Responses are measured on a scale, where 0 represents "very poor" and 10 represents "very good.” Those scores are shown as 1 to 5 stars on the provider’s profile.

- October 16, 2022 He was very thorough and answered ally questions adequately.
- October 14, 2022 Joseph Baker did take time to listen and explain my options - again I want to emphasize that this was my very first visit to a new place with all new people I have never met before - and it takes time to get to know and feel comfortable with them - I will say that I do believe they were doing their job - being professionals - and making a very concerted effort to assess my pain and concerns and address and explain the best treatment options available - one thing that did stand out and get my attention was his selective term of elective / selective surgery / procedure hummmm??? I got the impression / feeling that it was more their selective decision whether to choose me and to offer me the surgery - This was very new to me - I almost feel and wonder if he believed my pain and suffering was bad enough to do the surgery because I just happened to me walking a little better that particular day - again I am not passing any judgements here - I have not been to many doctors in the past 30+ years - I have used homeopathic / acupuncture for the past 23+ years and this is almost uncharted territory for me - it is definitely different from what I am use to and have experienced -

- October 5, 2022 Very professional and knowledgeable.
