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.

- April 11, 2023 Dr. Usoh made me feel like she wanted to help me- she listened to what I was saying and gave me good feedback on what she thought may be going on. I feel like she took me seriously and I feel 100% confident she can help me and my symptoms. She was wonderful and I would recommend her 10/10.
- March 3, 2023 Dr. Usoh was professional and friendly. It was easy for me to explain my symptoms and history with her. This was my first visual visit with a doctor and in my case it was easy. It kept me from traveling to the office which was very convenient. I had all my lab work done the same day Within 2 days after Dr Usoh received all the results, she left me a message about my condition and related instructions in My Chart. Very very quick and efficient!

- October 18, 2022 I am grateful that she took the time to understand my situation and guided me with the best way to move forward.
- October 7, 2022 Did not examine or listen, which gave her zero knowledge of my symptoms. Even dates were 7 to 10 years off. Robotic with follow up questions and had to correct herself when I pointed out errors in her answers. My opinion, she had no care for me as a patient and I was treated without dignity
- October 3, 2022 Very good md
- September 30, 2022 I was unable to put my socks back on due to knee replacements, and Dr. Usoh Put my socks on for me. I was very happy for her help. Also I am 82 years old.
