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.

- 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

- August 11, 2022 Very kind caring about my care
- June 9, 2022 I do not know if I all be successful at measuring by blood sugar each time I have a crisis. My main focus is balancing my blood sugar in that moment rather than measuring my blood sugar. I was not sure Dr. Usoh understood that challenge.
