Insurances accepted
Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.
Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice.
Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Overview of patient comments
Summary created using AI
Patient comments are gathered from our Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey and are displayed in their entirety. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.
Patients appreciate
Patients consistently praise Aftesha Cooper for her attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine concern for their well-being. A standout quality mentioned across many reviews is her willingness to truly listen to patients' concerns without dismissing them, taking time to thoroughly explain diagnoses and treatment plans. Reviewers frequently highlight her knowledgeable and thorough approach to care, with many noting that her treatments were effective and that they left appointments feeling reassured and relieved. Her warm, compassionate bedside manner is also widely appreciated, with patients describing her as kind, caring, friendly, and easy to talk to. Several patients specifically noted that she did not make them feel rushed and that she went above and beyond, including following up after visits.
Patients also share
Opportunities for improvement are relatively limited given the overwhelmingly positive feedback, but a few patients noted areas worth mentioning. One reviewer pointed out a communication gap regarding a prescription that was written two days after their visit without any follow-up contact. Another reviewer noted that the broader system of communication at the practice could use improvement. One reviewer mentioned that Cooper could have been slightly warmer in her demeanor, though they acknowledged her schedule may have been a factor.
