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.
Patient Comments
- November 19, 2023 Dr Bhave... one of the most professional doctors we have seen with this terrible disease. She is a Myelofibrosis Specialist and always gives you the feeling that you are her only patient and that she is always prepared when she walks in to the exam room. She "listens" she "answers questions" she leaves nothing out. She helps like no other doctor that we have ever experienced. I think the entire Cancer Center is this way.... Thank You Dr Bhave and Staff

- October 10, 2023 Doctor Bhave is outstanding! You need to increase her remuneration. She listens well, attempts to convey complicated diagnoses into simple words that my limited capacity can understand. And Then, again, at the next visit patiently repeats and clarifies what I did not understand or missed the first go around. I consider myself to be alive because of diagnosis she caught that prior Doctors(?) missed. These type of questions are why you should not ask if you don’t like the responses. I am pleased with the care and management of my conditions that she provides. Thanks D3
