    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

    • June 23, 2022 She is very attentive and listens to your questions and answers them . Excellent at removing stitches!
    • May 26, 2022 Gracias por el buen servicio
    • May 26, 2022 I was very thankful she took the time to show me my MRI and explain it to me where I could understand. Also her concerns with my symptoms not matching the MRI results is exactly what my PT & I have been concerned about as well, there for it gave me an automatic confidence in her decision to order additional X-rays. In fact my PT had stated that she was curious about the same thing and would love to see X-rays in different positions.
    • May 26, 2022 Heather listened to my concerns. She answered all my questions and not once did I feel rushed like so many other Doctors offices. I left feeling confident and relieved that my health concern was not what I thought it was. I left with a smile.
    • May 23, 2022 Again, Heather has full concern for any issues that I may have. She rates high in my book! Always listens & has a wonderful attitude. Very caring. We Appreciate her so much. One of the Best!

    • April 28, 2022 Heather was attentive, listened to me, and showed concern.
    • April 24, 2022 She explained things, showing my MRI, and offered different treatment plans. She didn’t look down on me because of my obesity. (Other doctors have dismissed my complaints and blamed it all on my weight)
    • April 17, 2022 Heather listens to my comments and concerns about my condition. She recommends the appropriate treatment
    • April 17, 2022 Loved meeting and discussing my issues with Heather! She spent as much time with me as I needed.
    • April 6, 2022 She was great knowledgeable& kind
    • April 6, 2022 Have NO problem talking to Heather. I am old school and would rather speak with the doctors I just feel treatments. And decisions would be quicker. AGAIN working with Heather has been satisfactory!
    • March 22, 2022 I'm always happy when I find I'm going to be seen by Heather Triplett. She puts me at ease and listens to all my concerns. She's very thorough and answers all my questions, making sure I understand and am satisfied with my visit.
    • March 20, 2022 Told us the honest truth about the situation then left the decision in our hands. Told us the pros and cons of different treatments and we were pleased with the care received.
    • February 24, 2022 SHE IS VERY GOOD WITH HER PATIENTS AND I AM ALWAYS PLEASED WITH HER AND OUR APPONTIMENTS . I JUST DON'T GIVE 10 TO ANYONE BUT HAVE NO COMPLAINTS. ALWAYS FRIENDLY AND VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY HEALTH.
    • February 21, 2022 Heather is very knowledgeable, friendly, personable, and professional.
