Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

She makes a diagnosis before even entering the room. She doesn't ask questions, she doesn't listen, is critical and judgmental to other treatment options. She gives a person zero credit for knowing their own body, - she has already decided she knows best.

Outstanding physician who exhibits sound medical guidance, along sincere empathetic traits. Have never believed that she follows a “cookie cutter” path. Listens well. Advises in a relatable, yet scientific/medical manner. I had to leave her care due to a change of employment that altered my coverage options. That circumstance is about to change and I look forward to returning to Dr. Cheng’s care.

Where do I start. She didn't ask enough questions to make sure her decisions were appropriate. She didn't listen and was more direct and forceful with what procedure I had to complete. Overall I do not plan on going back to her. I have never had a terrible doctor that treated me like someone who doesn't know what they're talking about and doesn't take the time to listen to what the patient wants and guilts the patient. Therefore the patient feels reluctant.
