  • The doctor that my daughter saw was fantastic and she actually sat next to her up on the table and looked at her right in the eyes and, you know, talked with her and gave her a lot of information and it made me as a parent feel very comfortable and I know it made my 13-year-old daughter feel like she was in good hands and at the right place.

  • Dr. Oboite is amazing. She always listened to us and tailored care not just based on what works clinically but also practically. She made sure it was a routine my child could follow

  • Dr Oboite is always professional, courteous and so pleasant on every interaction we have ever had with her. She is informative and explains things thoroughly to ensure both my daughter and myself have a full understanding of the plan of care before we leave our visit. I could not be any happier with the genuine concern and compassion she has shown us over the years! An outstanding clinician on all levels.

About the Patient Experience Rating System

The patient experience rating is an average of all responses to the care provider-related questions from surveys submitted by patient families and verified by our survey partner National Research Corporation (NRC Health), an independent company that specializes in patient experience. 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 using percent positive scoring. Percent positive is the percentage of respondents who answered with the most desirable response. We are committed to transparency and sharing the voices of our patients and families. Comments are reviewed before posting to ensure accuracy, privacy, and relevance. To provide meaningful feedback, comments are displayed on provider profiles once a sufficient number have been received. All feedback is also shared internally to support learning, recognition, and continuous improvement. The comments reflect the experiences and perspectives of the patients and families who submitted them. The comments are not endorsed by and do not reflect the views of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
