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
- May 23, 2023 I like how she wants to help. Thanks alot
- April 17, 2023 Jessica Tate takes the time to listen to my concerns. She is kind and professional. She goes the extra mile for her patients. She is concerned about the “total” patient. You can contact her on My Wake Health and she responds quickly. She is the best when it comes to Neurology and diseases associated with Neurology! I would highly recommend her.
- April 14, 2023 Dr Tate is very personable and I am grateful and blessed to have her as my provider. She cares about her patients and that makes all the difference for me, so I am extremely grateful to and for her. Thank you Dr Tate and staff. I truly appreciate all of you and the care you provide for me so thank you all.
- March 9, 2023 I know your job is difficult and dealing with different personalities may be a challenge but there's no reason to laugh at them.
- February 27, 2023 I do not ever give superlatives over and over. But Dr. Tate deserves it. She cares, listens , talks, asks. She has a lovely sense of humor . She also knows her area. She shares with us information about certain drugs that are out there for PD patients . Shetajes all the time intge world with you it feels like. I am aware of schedules and the need. I have always had my questions answered. I have rarely had to wait for her. I think she is a jewel in your Parkinson’s and Botox crown. She is a positive addition to my care giving team and 6 years in that is so important to me. If I am going to handle my issues with grin, a bit 9f irreverence, many thank yous and an upbeat approach, I sure want the folks around me doing much the same. Wish I lived closer to make all the PT, OT , Voice T and Dr Tate visits easier. Also it is a bear to get in and around AHWFB!

- August 30, 2022 She was very good at explaining and giving me the Botox injection. I had been a long time patient of Doctor Walker who had retired and I had a great experience with him for probably 20 years. I was looking for someone he had trained and Doctor Tate was great!
- August 25, 2022 Dr. Tate was very knowledgeable & anxious to explain the procedure to treat my familial BET which I have dealt with for over 20 years.
