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.

- March 10, 2023 Dr. Wells is knowledgeable, caring, listens, and explains. She answered every question I had. She explained why she was treating me the way she was treating me. She asked my thoughts on how the treatment should go after ensuring I understood my options. I wish more doctors practiced medicine the way she does.

- January 6, 2023 I wish more doctors would actually talk and explain things to patients like Dr. Wells did. She not only explained my situation, including what my labs meant, but she also explained her thought process and why she recommended the course of action she planned for me. She asked me my opinion. She didn't use the 'checklist' many doctors seem to practice medicine by, but rather used a thought process to best prescribe me what I needed for my personal situation. More doctors need to work like this!
- December 21, 2022 She is a very understanding doctor.
- December 15, 2022 Dr. Wells is amazing! She apologized for the issues I had, even though it was not her fault. She also made sure to fully understand my situation before talking about a care plan. She is very thoughtful and made sure I completely understood the plan of action before she let me leave.
- December 11, 2022 Dr. Wells is an exceptional doctor!! We definitely trust and respect her.
