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.
I am so happy I saw Dr. Lee. She was very professional but had excellent bedside manner. She made my medical diagnosis and prognosis clear and I could tell she was an expert.
The Dr. And her assistance were very helpful.
I've had a dozen consultations with Dr. Frances Lee over the past year related to my cirrhosis and she has been right about EVEYTHING. She listens, she explains, is always upbeat. Without a doubt the FINEST and smartest Doctor I've ever met.
