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.

I found him to be condescending and rude. That is not uncommon for physicians in our area, what I cannot take however is how poorly the office is run. If you value your health…find another place.

I understand that sometimes it is not so easy to make right diagnosis. So I was really impressed when Dr. Richard Chmielewski on the very first visit was able to pinpoint possible cause of my illness, ordered appropriate bloodwork tests and on the next visit an accurate diagnosis of my disease was made. During all my subsequent visits, care provided by Dr. Chmielewski and his medical staff was above my expectations. The attitude of everyone was as if they treated their own family member. Thank you very much for your excellent work

I had a horrible experience with him. He is the most lazy and uncaring Dr. I have seen in a while. He refused to help me with manual treatments have been proven to work for me. He has an ego and scams people with chronic pain. Don't waste your time like I did!

I have been seeing Dr. Chmielewski since April of 2014, and it is now January of 2015. Richard is one of the most caring Doctors I have ever dealt with all all my 45 years. His staff is equally caring, although the front desk/secretary/whatever she is can have a real attitude; which, IMHO knocks him down to 4 stars from 5. She is the 'face' of the practice, the first person whom you deal with. The Book's cover, if you will, and although she can soften up, most times you won't see that.
