NAPLES, Fla. (November 25, 2011) – Naples orthopaedic surgeon Robert J. Zehr, M.D., of The Zehr Center for Orthopaedics, has once again been chosen to receive the Patients’ Choice Award, an honor bestowed on a select few physicians nationwide. Every month, more than 200,000 patients across the U.S. provide online feedback about their doctor experiences. They rate the various components of the care they receive, such as bedside manner, doctor-patient time, follow-up care, ease of appointment setting, courtesy of office staff, and they also share their overall opinions.
Over the course of 2011, hundreds of thousands of patient reviews were written and shared. While physicians generally receive positive feedback from their patients, only a select few consistently receive rave reviews. Of those with high praise, only physicians with near-perfect scores receive this honor. In fact of the nation’s 720,000 active physicians, only 5% were accorded this honor by their patients in 2011.
Dr. Zehr also won this award in 2009 and 2010.
