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. Wilkes is a very special doctor. She listens carefully to our concerns and works closely with us to address all questions. She genuinely cares about seeing her patients thrive and is warm to both my kids and me. She makes the experience really pleasant, and we feel our kids are getting the best care with her.
Dr Wilkes was caring and had excellent bedside manner. I felt at ease with her level of concern for my child
Thank you Dr Wilkes, great support and advice as ever.
