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.

- March 9, 2023 She helps me feel that my concerns are important, that I’m not just looking for attention.
- March 8, 2023 Dr. Furr has been my provider for many years and she has consistently exceeded my expectations. She is warm and kind, knowledgeable and caring. During a period of time that I moved 90 minutes away from the office, I continued to drive in for any visits with her as I did not want to risk having a sub par experience elsewhere.

- February 12, 2023 She sits and focuses her full attention on the patient - all patient questions are answered promptly Only thing I can think of is that patient issue could be explored a little further with Dr. Asking a few questions and looking in patient’s mouth for possible inflammation or redness ?
- February 12, 2023 Dr. Furr makes me feel comfortable on every visit. Always interested in my health and wellbeing; they are her top priority.

- September 29, 2022 Was in a big hurry to get me in and out did not take time to sit and listen to my personal care that I need it??s been a whole year since I??ve had a complete physical and if you call that a physical I wouldn??t recommend it to anybody. I needed to address some issues that I have been having and only your doctor can help you in that area. She did not. I am extremely disappointed in the care that I received. I pay over $400 a month just for me from my healthcare I should get for what I paid for and now I will receive her bill which she does not deserve. I will seek a new physician someone who will sit and listen to my personal needs and make sure that my health is in good standing for me. I??ve had some anxiety and I needed to address it !!! now I just have to deal with it. I give the whole visit extremely unsatisfactory.

- April 26, 2022 Dr. Furr may be very knowledgeable and well trained as a doctor, but lacks bedside manners and the ability to make the patient feel apart of the plan or understand what's going on. She is very hurried and does not explain things very well on a level that's easy to understand without prior medical knowledge. I've seen her twice as a work in due to my PCP not having any availability, and both times I left feeling like I didn't know what was going on or anything about the condition. She is not rude, but really does not have the bedside manners you would desire from a doctor treating you.
