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.

- June 2, 2023 I was referred to Dr. Pharr by my MS doctor in Atlanta who felt we would be a good match as patient and doctor. Dr. Pharr's "bedside" manner and knowledge meshed well with my questioning nature. Both my husband and I left feeling very comfortable that she will be able to handle any issue I may have with my MS in the future.
- May 15, 2023 Dr. Pharr is a caring and knowledgeable neurologist. I am always pleased with the time she spends with me . I would recommend her to anyone needing a neurologist.
- May 15, 2023 Genuninally cares and takes the time needed for a checkup.
- April 22, 2023 Dr. Emily Pharr is a wonderful Neurologist! I think I've been seeing her close to four years. Every six months I see her and the visits with her just keep getting better. She is so intelligent, a good listener, VERY PATIENT, compassionate and caring. I know I'm making her sound like a team leader of a girl scout squad, which she could be one! I've bumped into other folks who know her and say many nice things about her. Her staff is wonderful, too. They will take care of you at A.H.W.F.B. Neurology. I give the ENTIRE department a solid 10 plus!!

- March 13, 2023 Dr. Pharr was so patient and kind, taking a great deal of time with me to ensure I was comfortable with the treatment plan. She went over my Brain MRI with me in detail, and even provided encouragement as a mother.

- February 22, 2023 Dr Pharr is absolutely the kindest and most caring Dr I have ever seen.She listens and offers advice for any problem without being pushy. I would hate to think I would ever have to see another Dr. than her. She is truly one in a million.
