    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 5, 2022 In my 56 years of going to doctors, especially these last 20 years with major medical problems, MJ is BY FAR THE BEST NP/DOCTOR/NURSE/CPA/ANYONE!!! that has spent time with me. The first appointment I had with MJ was the most thorough appointment I have ever had in my life. She went over every surgery in detail (There are a lot!) MJ went over every medical issue, medication I had ever been on and reason, diet programs tried and failed and she wanted to know why I thought I had failed.MJ asked for my input moving forward but considering that morning I had just received a new diagnosis and my nephew had just died, MJ said to me "We are going to put you on pause. You are not emotionally ready to start anything today. My team and I will talk. I want you to participate in our group therapy sessions (which I have learned so many self help skills from already) until we meet again in 3-4 weeks. WOW! I was not expecting that, But it was EXACTLY what I needed at that time. THANK YOU MJ! You clearly have been through school, received your education/degrees but more importantly, you have a God Given Gift. You HEAR your patients and take the TIME to get to know them.

    Why No Ratings

    Currently, not all doctor ratings and comments are available. The number of rated physicians will increase over time. 
    The more ratings a provider receives, the more accurate and statistically reliable the data is. Providers with less than 30 ratings may not have patient ratings listed on their profiles.
