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.

- July 12, 2023 First of all, Dr. Sholar is absolutely brilliant. She can take a big pile of mush and distill it down to one thing. Amazing. Second, her bedside manner is unreal. I used to be so intimidated by her when she was the oncologist for my husband...but that was because she was so smart. But then I learned that her demands were purely for the good of the patient. She wants the utmost best for her patients and they are always #1 to her. We are so incredibly blessed to have her, her compassion, her mind, and her caring as part of our healthcare community. You may laugh, as it sounds like I idolize her...well, yeah, me and a zillion others!

- January 7, 2023 Dr. Sholar has been my Cancer doctor almost 2 years now. She isn't afraid to speak plainly about even the worse case outcome. She is truthful but is kind.
