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.

- July 17, 2023 Dr. Jose made some med changes some months ago and we reviewed them at this appointment. When he walked into the room I got up and thanked him sincerely for his suggestions and care as my situation had improved dramatically. I am very happy about it. A minus, my hearing aids and that room ventilatling fan makes it hard to hear the spoken word at times. I wonder if the fan has to be that loud???
- July 16, 2023 He has helped my initial problem.
- June 30, 2023 Went to the ER because I was passing blood through my stool and vomiting blood had problems standing there's some time I stood felt like I was going to pass out and they later determined when I got to the ER that I had a ulser bleed and so they took me into emergency surgery and stop the bleed . They have an awesome team there they did a great job I was in intensive care for for 4 days it was a great great service outstanding Rockstar five star. They came in every hour to check on me it was a little annoying at night but you know what it's okay I didn't complain.

- January 29, 2023 I didn't have to wait long for the doctor to see me and he was friendly and explained everything to me. He seemed to care about me and my condition.
- January 17, 2023 Excellent doctor, caring, through, knowledgeable, time efficient, I have seen him several times, Wilkes is fortunate to have him here.
- December 20, 2022 Dr. Carrasquillo was very polite and understanding of my concerns with the procedure he recommended. I have had a light ran down my throat before back in 03?? and I woke up during it. I will never forget that experience. This was done by a gastroenterologist Dr that is no longer with us and it gives me a lot of anxiety thinking it could happen again. As well as the age difference, medications I??m on, health conditions, and having a child. Any procedure would be scary because of those things and he was very understanding and didn??t dismiss my concerns. He explained that I wouldn??t wake up in the middle with the new medications they use now and he also explained its a lot different now. He isn??t pushing me to get it done asap he is allowing me time to make the decision on my own. Luckily most of my symptoms have decreased since I was put on another medication to go with what I already take from my regular Dr. I was so miserable prior to the new medications working and would probably go forward with it if they hadn??t worked but for some reason as I am older I am terrified of being put to sleep. He was very knowledgeable with what he had to work with. With the symptoms I was having. He treated me with respect, dignity, and was very kind. Having someone like him makes it a lot easier for someone like me that has a lot of anxiety anyways. I appreciate that a lot.
- October 9, 2022 Dr was very soft spoken. Took the time to listen to me. Asked me if there was anything I didn??t understand about what we had discussed. Very impressed with his care of me throughput the visit.
