Patient Rating
Legacy wants every patient to have great care, every time. To help measure and improve patient satisfaction, we send surveys to randomly selected patients after their appointments. We use this feedback from the surveys to improve and enhance the care we offer. It works like this: Real patients give us feedback through Press Ganey, a patient satisfaction survey company. They verify and confirm the results. National Research Corporation, an independent company, provides the technology to show the ratings and comments on our website

my last provider seemed to only look at her compute, Dr. Folger actually looks at you when asking questions and then listens to your answers. I love her for manatee reasons, but this is the best! showing respect while actually listening and I thought this was a LOST practice. I am so glad Dr. Folger has proved me wrong. I wish I could get this same treatment from other practitioners, but alas I don't expect it anymore.

I am a new patient. This was my first appointment with Dr. Folger. I had several phone conversations prior to the appointment with Dr. Folger's nurse Chris. Chris was welcoming, informative, engaging, prompt in returning calls and answering questions. The office staff was equally welcoming and efficient. Dr. Folger was awesome! I had no bad experiences.
Dr. Folger and her staff are all amazing, she spends quality time with her patients and tries to help them get the cheapest way of everything as her patients are elderly.
