Comments

  • Dr. Sperling reviewed the records and tests from my son's previous PCP and ED visits and came to the appointment prepared. His goal was not only to figure out what my son had, but also to keep him comfortable as he recovered from his illness. Dr. Sperling engaged me in decision making around testing and the treatment plan.

  • We came in for a weight check and have seen lots of providers due to some reflux issues - I really appreciated that the doctor had read through my daughter's charts and was familiar with her issues, so that it didn't feel like our first time seeing him (even though it was!). He was helpful and thorough and answered all my questions!

About the Patient Experience Rating System

The Patient Experience Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions shown above from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score. We are committed to true transparency. However, to ensure the comments are fair and correctly attributed, we review each one before posting to the website. We exclude entire comments that disclose patient’s protected health information, are off-topic, or include other confidential or inappropriate content. Comments will appear on provider bios only if providers have a minimum number of comments. Comments are shared internally for education purposes to ensure that we are doing our very best for the patients and families for whom we are privileged to care. The comments are submitted by patients and families and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not reflect the views of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
