Patient Experience Star Ratings and Comments
The Patient Experience Star Rating reflects our patients’ perception of how well their Mount Sinai provider communicated with them during an office visit. The Star Rating is based on patient responses to three questions on a patient experience survey, a standardized questionnaire sent to verified patients and distributed by a third party vendor, Press Ganey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.
Dr Razavi was very patient and took the time to review the options, risks and benefits of the procedure. Gave us any information and feedback we asked for making sure we were comfortable with whatever decision we were making. We appreciated the time he took to take care of our son.
Perfect
Dr. Razavi is the best!!
