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.

- May 10, 2023 It’s important to find a doctor that LISTENS to the patient to UNDERSTAND. Stay away from doctors that listen to respond and doesn’t take your symptoms or concerns into consideration. Dr. Cheeks is hands down the best Cardiologist I’ve encountered. I felt better after one visit from him than I had being hospitalized and seeing several cardiologists that couldn’t tell me anything. I look forward to my continued care with him. Patients remember… doctors can help lead you in the right direction but you also have to be compliant and wiling to do the work they suggest. Thank you to his team.
