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.

January 18, 2023 I always receive excellent care from Conover Family Practice under the watchful eye and treatment when needed by Dr. Coffey.

I only wish I had remembered her name. Kudos all around! Brian

April 20, 2022 It was a challenge to get an appointment. I tried a few weeks ago and the person I spoke with (April) did not want to make an appointment when I said i wasn't feeling well and needed to speak to Dr Coffey. I called back a week later and said I just needed a checkup instead and they booked my appointment without hesitation. I still do not understand why April would not permit me to see my Doctor when I was not feeling well. She kept insisting she had to "send it up" to get an answer. Send it up to whom?? Why? I was NOT AT ALL HAPPY with that experience. So when I called back a week later I did not indicate I was not feeling up to par and easily got an appointment (but I forget the name of the person who took my call; she was very nice).
April 19, 2022 Dr. Coffey is very attentive to my condition and future needs. He is an excellent professional! I recommend him to all family and friends.
