Primary Care Partners of South Bend is the #1 Rated Small Family Medicine Group in the Nation

Primary Care Partners of South Bend has been recognized by Rater8 as the #1 rated small family medicine group in the United States. This ranking is based on thousands of verified patient reviews, compared across every rated practice in the country.

 

What Rater8 is and How This Works

Rater8 is a healthcare reputation platform that collects verified feedback directly from patients after their appointments. Reviews are tied to actual visits; there’s no voting, no campaigns, and no self-reporting. The feedback is collected independently from the practice.

To rank #1 among small family medicine practices nationwide means that our patients, on average, consistently rate their care higher than patients at any other comparable practice in the country.

 

The Team Behind This Recognition

Primary Care Partners of South Bend was founded on the belief that excellent medical care and genuine respect for patients are the same goal.

Dr. Brandon Zabukovic built his practice around the principle that every patient deserves a voice in their own care, regardless of background or circumstance. Dr. Mary Hope Griffin has spent 25 years in pediatrics, building long-term relationships with families and evaluating children for developmental delays and autism. Dr. Bailey Swan joined the practice in 2024 with a focus on preventive care, health literacy, and full-scope family medicine. Christine Coulter, FNP, and Rebekah Kottkamp, FNP, have each built their practices around the same principle: that patients deserve to feel heard, not rushed.

Every provider on this team made a deliberate choice to practice in an independent, community-based setting where they can take the time to know their patients. This recognition reflects that choice.

 

What Our Patients Are Saying

Here are a few recent reviews for spotlighting each of our providers:

“I love that Dr. Z is my doctor! He’s so patient and caring. Best doctor!”

“Dr. Swan is the best doctor I have ever had. I was incredibly scared to start seeing a doctor after many years of not seeing one and not having insurance. She is patient, kind and listens well. I couldn’t ask for anything more!”

“Christine is amazing. She listens to me and talks to me like a person. I can tell she’s truly committed to helping me get better.”

“By far the best PCP I have ever had! Rebekah always listens, is knowledgeable, and never makes you feel like just another patient.”

“We absolutely adore the office of our pediatrician. The greatest is Dr. Mary Hope Griffin! She gives really simple explanations that both adults and kids can grasp. Our children look forward to their appointments — they even look forward to the annual vaccination checkups.”
