Excellent doctor
Nurse was excellent and the cardiologist is as advertised, a top doc
Dr Scott, does the pre work and is prepared to engage during each visit vs looking everything up during your time with her.
Dr. Scott is a caring, compassionate, interested and very bright Dr. I am so thankful very day that she is my Cardiologist. SCAD is so scary. The team at MGB's Women's Heart Center give me the support I need to live with this uncertain future. Thank you.
Professional
Dr. Scott is knowledgeable and competent. I trust her judgment and will follow her advice! An asset to Massachusetts General
Terific
I've been seeing Dr. Scott for over 10 years and she exceeds every possible question on this survey. She's excellent, knowledgeable, a good listener, and very good at explaining things. So she gets my 1,000% positive response. Just letting you know. Thank you.
Dr. Scott is a very thorough and thoughtful provider. Dr. Scott met me in the waiting area right after I checked in and she brought me out back to the exam room, period. She answered all of my questions and she gave me recommendations and she made sure that all of my questions and concerns were answered before she left the room.
Overall excellent doctor/cardiologist
