Patient verified via Press Ganey

I was not given an opportunity to ask questions, consider the examination, or decline it before it began. When I raised my concern afterward, the clinician apologized that the examination had not been explained clearly. I explained that I could not do so beforehand because I did not know the examination was going to happen. In her subsequent response, she apologized that I "felt unprepared" and "did not feel" I had the chance to give informed consent. Although I appreciate that she offered apologies, this wording did not adequately address my concern. It was not simply a matter of feeling unprepared; the examination was not explained beforehand, and I was not given an opportunity to agree or decline. The emphasis on asking questions or opting out in the future felt as though responsibility was being placed on me for something I did not know was about to happen. I experienced discomfort during and after the examination. The possibility of this discomfort was not discussed with me beforehand in any way. This experience has also caused significant psychological distress and damaged my trust in the clinician. My central concern is consent, not whether the examination is routinely performed. I am sharing this feedback because I want ECU Physicians to understand the impact of this experience and the importance of explaining each part of an intimate examination, discussing possible discomfort, and giving patients a genuine opportunity to agree or decline before proceeding.

I have been a patient of Dr. Jackson's for a very long time. She is very knowledgeable and she is good about answering questions through the online portal and getting back to me. My biggest issue is that every appointment seems very rushed. These providers are told to get in and get out and to speed things up they have the CNA in there with you reading your answers to questions you give the CNA and it's as if you are not in the room at all because it's just the CNA reading off your answers. It takes away from the relationship between the patient and the Dr. And I personally don't feel comfortable with someone else in the room if I have a private issue going on. Sometimes they don't relay the answers correctly as well. So I understand it was put in place to speed things up but it takes away from an interpersonal relationship with the provider.

Doctor is friendly but seemed to be stand-off ish...I went in for a Physical...thinking I would be able to voice some concerns about me and was never asked if I had concerns. Submitted a question 3 or 4 days prior to the appt to ask if I could bring up those concerns but was told that the doctor has only 20 minutes scheduled and I would need to make separate appts...sounds like the bottom line is more important.

These routine appointments seem very "scripted" to me. Same questions same sequence. Dr doesn't want to deviate . Why not just send questions before appointment. Except to get vaccine didn't seem like much point to have a face-to-face. Seems like ECU Health Is tying hands of providers.

Dr. Jackson always make her patient feel valued. She listens and ask questions. She's patient and shows a great deal of compassion to her patients. I know three people who have her as a doctor; we all rave about her. I trust her. I'm grateful for her.

I don't have enough kind words to describe the care that Dr. Jackson provides to me. I'm comfortable talking to her about any medical issues I'm having. She always ensures that I fully understand any instructions provided. I LOVE this provider!

Like I previously stated I had to ask would she prescribe anything for my cough instead of her offering any prescriptions because I feel like I come in coughing you should automatically say ok I'm going to prescribe something for that cough

Dr. Jackson was wonderful! I have made the switch because of my doctor. This appointment was just a routine physical to establish care and Dr. Jackson was very patient and listened intently.
