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.

Dr. himself was caring & thorough. His receptionists & some of staff are downright rude & uncivil. Why? They were very disrespectful to elderly patient with 30 yr. history there

Dr.Cichowlas really listens and is a caring doctor. The virtual visit was easy. When you can't get in to the office this is really good because he is your Dr. And he knows you through your visits versus going to a clinic where you've never established a Dr-patient relationship.

Office is no longer sensitive to elderly patients & their caregivers. Dr. C is often out of office. His assistant, Dr. Jacobs is officious. Receptionist is cold & argumentative, not sensitive to issues this pandemic presents for elderly

Office staff is amazing, always helpful to answer questions even if they have interrupt the doctor. Dr. C gives it to you up front and tells you how things are and are going to be if you don't take care of yourself. don't be offended if he doesn't shake your hand, he see sick people all day long.

The likelihood of me recommending anyone is not likely, as long as Shirley is a staff member there. Shirley is a bully and she does deserve to work in the medical field the way she talked down to the patient is horrible and it should be unacceptable. I'm sure that I'm not the only patient that feels this way. Health Care provider's are not for bullies, It's the career for people who truly cares.
