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
- July 5, 2022 Thorough, professional and detail in conversation. Maintained excellent eye contact.
- June 17, 2022 He is personable, caring, knowledgeable, and professional. I would recommend him to anyone needing care from a neurologist.
- May 21, 2022 Dr. Crisp is a very humble doctor! He is so kind and caring and listens to everything I say. He makes me feel heard!
- May 18, 2022 Thank you, Dr Crisp is taking very good care of me and is always concerned about my total health.
- May 6, 2022 It was obvious that Dr. Crisp saw my mental health diagnoses and immediately disregarded me as a whole person who could have physical health issues as well. While examining me, he pressed me for details of abuse. I answered, thinking they were somehow relevant, but he is not a trained therapist, and events that transpired three decades ago were not, in fact, relevant. He was very dismissive and told me that basically, I was using my arms incorrectly, and any issues were psychosomatic, without any further testing. In regards to that, being dumbstruck and not understanding basic psychological terminology, when I have a degree in the subject, are two entirely different things. Dr. Crisp instructed me to proceed to the seventh floor for bloodwork, but figured it was all but pointless anyway, and mentioned that I could have a nerve conduction study performed at my leisure but did not give me any further instructions. I wonder, if perhaps, my elevated creatine kinase levels were all in my head as well. Naturally, I will be seeking another opinion.
- May 6, 2022 Dr. Crisp is awesome.
- April 30, 2022 Kind, good listener, explains his intentions and suggestions clearly as well as my future game plan

- April 14, 2022 Dr. Crisp is very caring, listens to me and answers all my questions. He explains things in a way that is easy to understand. When we discuss a plan of action, Dr. Crisp allows me to weigh in on what we are going to do. Dr. Crisp is the most caring and compassionate physician I have ever seen.

- April 9, 2022 Great doctor showed compassion made arrangements for me to see someone who may help me took my pain physical and mental seriously

- March 4, 2022 He is very knowledgeable in his field. Clearly I have a major problem with my shoulder. He told me that the nerves were fine without even checking them.
