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 21, 2023 She is good. I just don’t understand going through so much more pt, brace, etc. and still have pain. I need surgery but will have to loose 20 more pounds before it is considered and then will have to see when I will be put on a schedule. Do I go to another hospital for surgery??
