To obtain patient ratings and comments, we partner with Press Ganey, an independent patient satisfaction company that works with more than 26,000 healthcare organizations to improve the patient experience. These patient verified ratings are based on the “likelihood to recommend” physician scores on the nationally developed CAHPS Clinician & Group Survey (CG-CAHPS). Actual top box results for this question are translated to a 1-5 scale, and the star scores are measured on that scale, with 5 being the best score.

I'm not sure what was going on with Dr. Jacob yesterday afternoon, but I felt he is one of the worst listeners I've encountered in a long time. The main thing I wanted yesterday was a referral, which he provided while I was with him. After I left the clinic I realized the referral was incorrect, but he fixed it after I went back to the clinic.
