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
- March 17, 2023 I am always nervous with a new provider and this was the second time I saw Lauren after Donna left, but she totally put my mind at ease. She listened to what I had to say and took me seriously, and she was warm and personable. I'm very glad to have her as my provider.

- March 4, 2023 Even though we had a crazy day (there was a sparking outlet in the lab) and we were all an hour or more behind schedule, Lauren and the rest of the staff were very calm, friendly, and willing to finish the visit. I was worried we would have to reschedule but did not want anyone's day to be extra stressful. I was told if I was checked in, I would be seen. That was a relief as well as staff and patients being safe.

- February 11, 2023 After spending $2000.00 at the emergency room for a skin infection I was told to see my regular doctor for a follow-up. I couldn't get an appointment with my regular doctor so I went to a PA. I told her about a rash I was having and thought it was a reaction to the antibiotics. She convinced me it wasn't because it was in one spot and to use Cortizone on the area. I woke up this morning and my left side back has broken out. It feels like I ran through a briar patch. Cortizone isn't helping.

- December 10, 2022 Was asked to do lab work again on a full stomach and in less than a years timeframe. In Jan.2022,did labs in addition to my visit for my back pain. Was charged additional due to something other being done than what I came for. Not happy about charges, insurance did not cover due to coding of labs. Could have returned another day, all would have been covered by insurance. Feel Lauren should have known. I am still fighting charges. I refused to have labs done on this visit,plus I want an empty stomach for better accuracy.
