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

very good visit. reviewed prior imaging results to compare to current conditions. very helpful!
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
They showed me my lab results which reflected an improvement in my kidney functioning. They talked about current research in kidney treatment. very encouraging
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
The lab is woefully understaffed, overworked, exasperated and the procedures they are mandated to follow are confusing and in my opinion poorly thought out. Excess and overbearing bureaucracy! I waited 40 minutes for a simple blood test!
