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.

- January 5, 2023 she took all the time I needed and addressed my concerns with appropriate answers
- January 4, 2023 i've lived in nc for more than 20 years and until now had not found a doctor that took the time to converse about the reason for my appointment, much less do more than a cursory exam to actually interact with the physical injury or issue. she treats me like i know my health and conditions and will discuss what i've tried and what works or doesn't and listens to my answers. that is extremely important (and 9/10 times nonexistent today) because changing treatments that have worked for 20 years can make the issue worse and that has happened more than once. you can tell she cares about her patients, even with the stranglehold the insurance companies keep on physician's time at present.
