The Patient Satisfaction Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions shown below from our survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question.
My encounter with Dr. Cross as a new patient was excellent. He listened well, gave great feedback and guidance, and definitely made me feel like maintaining my health and wellness is a partnership with him.
"Well, the cancer is very rare" is, in fact, the wrong thing to say to someone who just told you their mother has that cancer and has been told it was genetic. Also shrugged shoulders about it. My wife is a PhD. Dont worry. We found the genetic tests online.Did not take my psychological issues seriously whatsoever.
Professional and polite.
Dr Cross is an interesting person. Jumps around from topic to topic, doesn't really listen to me, seems to scoff at evidence based recommendations. I gave him a second chance after losing Dr. Collins. Will be looking for a new physician.
It's like he was so checked out and non chalant about everything. Not sure why I went. We didn't discuss anything of value. Basically looked at me and besides ordering bloodwork was like "yep all good here"
Dr. Cross was great.
My care provider was professional in dealing with me.
Provider certainly responsive but not especially forthcoming
A great team effort!
Good
My doctor is very professional and knowledgeable. Her understanding is appreciated.
Dr is excellent answered all of my questions. Gave me practical as well as medical solutions!
Very helpful
Thanks
Excellent service and very professional
Everyone I know is satisfied with their doctors.
The appointment felt surface level and I thought there would be more discussion and elements to the physical.
Dr Cross was patient and collaborative. He listened to my concerns and had read my medical history in my Emory records prior to meeting with me. He explained my symptoms and offered supportive recommendations.
Md spent more time with the computer than actually examining me, listened to my heart briefly and that was the only contact with my body. I mentioned that I was developing painful gynecomastia and asked if he would examine my breasts and he declined. I am a surgeon myself and am used to actually examining my patients I know you have to check boxes on the computer to get paid but that doesn't preclude a physical examination in my opinion
Dr. Cross was kind, knowledgeable, and reassuring. He listened carefully and put me at ease. I was also impressed by his sense of humor!
Dr. Cross answered all my questions in a clear, effective and thoughtful manner. I did not feel rushed at any time.
Dr. Cross is very approachable & helpful.
Very good.
They were all very nice, good , friendly.
I'm very happy with the care I have received.
Always GREAT!
Patient care should be A+ All the time!
Thanks Dr. Cross!
Dr. Cross addressed my concerns and wrote a detailed follow-up so I could review what he said.
Good
Can't say enough great things about Dr. Cross. He is always on schedule, takes the time to review the health history while also staying engaged with the patient, and is thorough but efficient in his examinations. Throughout my visits with him he clearly explains options for care that he is considering and the reasoning for the conclusions he reaches and the care plan.
Dr. Cross is a star. I switched to this practice because of my experience with him.
Thoughtful and caring doctor
I was there for my annual physical. From the time the nurse put me in an exam room and took vital signs until I left after giving blood, I was there for no more than 40 minutes. It was the least attentive physical I have ever had through Emory. It seemed like a 6 month recheck vs an actual physical. I will be changing primary care physicians.
Highly recommended.
Dr. Cross was responsive to my comments and questions. He does not appear interested until he is drawn out. I understand this common cold/cough is not a big deal and that it still has no "cure". But I was well into week 3. We discussed why antibiotics etc. Clinically, I found him totally capable and on point. I just wondered if his manner and distance is how he normally meets patients and interacts. If so, I can't see that working for many patients. I wondered if he himself was dealing with an issue.
Feel as tho the doctor was just trying to finish the visit. Did not like explanation of my problem. Prescribe drugs had been taking that were not helping. Still have the same problem. No help
I was there for a physical. I feel like he didn't do a physical. We were in and out in about 15 minutes. I will be looking for another primary Dr. Dr Collins was very good and took her time. I feel like I was rushed out.
Great experience and comforting as well!
Excellent - friendly, easy to talk with, caring, and took time to make sure I understood my options.
We discussed me getting patches for my pain and I see they were in my chart but they were not sent to Walgreens. I wondered why?
They took very good care of my needs.
Dr Cross is an an excellent physician. Listens to all my concerns and answers all my questions.
Dr Cross was excellent in patiently discussing medical and insurance considerations in evaluating options for additional medical care.
Dr. Cross was pleasant and professional.
Dr. Cross is thorough. It shows that he wants the best health for his patients.
Good
There are doctors who are really interested in the patients well being and not just settle for less.
Impressed with the timely movement.
Doctor Cross was a good listener and very knowledgeable about my care
This physician was very off hand about doing an actual physical. He encouraged me not to see the specialists I see for certain conditions. He also criticized my previous se for being too thorough. I will be looking for a new Dr.
Listen to me and address my concerns
Dr. Cross seems to mean well but his shows little emotion about things. Other than that he definitely seems to be trying to get me help.
Great guy.
This was my second time seeing Dr Cross. The first time was weeks after a cancer diagnosis. This was my physical following my mastectomy. The first doctor from Emory I truly felt he cared about my situation and was compassionate.
Dr. Cross was very attentive and kind. Listened to me without interruptions. Already reviewed my chart and was up to date on everything.
Dr Cross is an amazing doctor who is knowledgeable and caring
New doctor(Dr Crossed)hit it off well..good listenerexplained things thoroughly
Dr.Cross was great he listened and addressed my every concern
The Dr. Cross has many years of experience and still diagnoses carefully and competently. Great personality. We need doctors like Dr. Cross.
Dr. Cross was wonderful.
The doctor reviewed my medical history in a thorough manner.
Awesome
We will discuss test results soon. I was very satisfied with the whole experience. I feel like don't have to worry about having someone to contact.
Initial "well-check" visit to establish baseline and update labs
Super nice and conversational, but I had no idea what he was doing. He'd make statements without questions then expecting an answer from me about something... The entire conversation felt random. I came for a annual check up and didn't feel like any processes was followed as far as things to check. I needed to proactively ask to get my ears and heart checked as well as have my labs done (which was almost closed for the day by the time it came up in conversation). Thankfully he did really try to convince them to get my blood drawn. Again super nice, but thankfully there was nothing actually wrong with me or that experience would've been terrible. I will not plan to go back.
Dr. Cross is a high qualified and thorough physician.
I still have the same health issue and there wasn't any labs or ideas that might help me to get better
I'm a relatively new patient of Dr. Cross & am very happy with his approachability & care.
Couldn't be any better.
Wow what a great doc. He was laid back and easy going. Maked asking questions easy. I've been to doctors before that were so stiff and unapproachable that you kinda just didn't want to bring things up. This was totally the opposite. I'd feel comfortable asking him anything. Really seemed like he enjoyed being a doctor and liked helping people get good medical information. A+ doctor
This was my first appointment with Doctor Cross, and my first healthcare experience in Georgia. It was a lot more pleasant than what I expected.
Strongly recommend anyone I know to go there
Dr. Cross was very professional and attentive. I was setting up my primary care provider and he took the time to go through my complete medical history.
So good
