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
- June 23, 2023 Dr. Callahan is everything a doctor should be. Her intelligence, knowledge, and caring make for visits where I am listened to and respected. She is thorough in diagnosing, follow thru, and communicating results and answering questions by text or phone. One of the best!
- April 19, 2023 Interested in and responsive to my questions, patient, clear in explanation, thorough. Clearly familiar with which health issues I have.
- October 23, 2022 Dr Callahan is amazing - as is the whole staff.
- August 19, 2022 The care rendered by the Sticht Center is always exceptionally patient centered, offering confident care. The departure of Dr. Lyles was unsettling but I am now very grateful to be Dr. Callaghan??s patient. She was familiar with my history, concerned about my life and well being, comprehensive, personal, reassuring in her planning for my care going forward.
