About Our Ratings and Reviews

About our Survey

Our physicians and advanced practice clinicians (CRNPs and PA-Cs) are among the nation's best. That's why we show you patient satisfaction ratings and comments so you can read about and get to know our providers through the eyes of their patients.

To ensure our ratings and comments come only from verified patients, we work with NRC Health, a third-party organization. NRC Health sends patient satisfaction surveys on LVPG's behalf following an office visit or procedure. They ask patients about their impression of the health care provider and the doctor's or advanced practice clinician's communication skills.

What is included in the star rating?

Star ratings are based on a scale of 1-5 stars, 5 being the best. The rating includes responses to these provider-related questions:

Physician Communication Questions
1. Did this provider give you easy to understand information about your health questions and concerns?
2. Did this provider listen carefully to you?
3. Did this provider seem to know your medical history?
4. Did you trust this provider with your care?
Overall Provider Rating Question
1. Using any number from 0 to 10, where 0 is the worst provider possible and 10 is the best provider possible, what number would you use to rate this provider?

Why don't all doctors or advanced practice clinicians have a rating?

In order to have enough data to measure and compare, a health care provider must have at least 30 completed patient satisfaction surveys. Surveys are included for a period of 12 months from submission.

Comments

"I was upset that I had 2 appointments one àt 215pm and the next at 330pm. When I scheduled the appointment they did not tell me my appointments were that far apart I was told I would see Dr Lin then the diation would come in right away not an.hour later. I don't want my appointments that far apart from each other and I want to be told about it next time if I'm not getting paperwork to show my appointments. That's ridiculous, people have lives and families and I shouldn't be waiting."

"Dr Lin is a very knowledgeable and professional gastroenterologist. He listens to patients' concerns."

"The provider is one of the best we have seen. We love that he speaks to our son as the patient first and includes him in his treatment plan. He looks to us as parents to answer questions our son can not."
