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.

Would NOT Recommend
I had been experiencing debilitating vertigo and right ear pain for several weeks. Dr. Cmejrek saw me for approximately 90 seconds (if that) and left the room. I didn't know if he was coming back. I didn't know of what his findings were. Finally a nurse came in and said to go see a physical therapist for the Epley Maneuver, then they would get back in touch with me after my visit to the physical therapist. the Epley Maneuver was not the issue nor did it work. She said she would be notifying Dr. Cmejrek of the fact that physical therapy was not the solution. There has been no follow-up and it has been 3 months. Needless to say, I am seeking another doctor.

No I will not recommend him to my family and friends, he is too arrogant. I ask for Dr Han and was given this nasty DR, who wanted me to show him that I have had 3 surgeries, all DOCTERS know when any precedures are done in the hospital they are consider surgery for insurance purpose,this man talk to me like I was a deaf person. I heard you loud and clear, I want take your nasty attitude

He is actually there to provide necessary care and to not just blow smoke. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Cmejrek. He is trustworthy and I am confident in his care and expertise wholeheartedly!

Dr Cmejrek and his office staff is the worst around. They dropped the ball on my husband's care numerous times. He was originally scheduled for allergy skin testing. Office messed up not realizing his current meds and had to cancel. Ordered a RAST test instead which is hardly accurate. Husband had CT ordered, staff insisted he get it done at Franciscan Health only to have to have entire CT repeated at their office to map out sugery markings. Office is not very accomodating. Will never return.

I went to Dr Cmejrek for a second opinion and was glad I did. He reviewed my CT scan with me and we decided together what the best course of action would be moving forward. The first surgeon I saw was going to do needless surgery on me and told me there would be no other option. Thank goodness for honest doctors like Dr Cmejrek who take the sensible approach. I feel comfortable knowing I'm not being rushed into surgery. The staff was also fantastic and kind.

At first I was impressed as the Dr seemed to know what he was doing. I told him my nose was tightly plugged with mucous. Then he stuck a scope up my nose to "take a look" but removed it quickly because he couldn't see anything due to the thick mucous. DUH? He gave me some medicine that didn't clear me up but made my sinus drier and stuffier. Then he charged $500.00 for the scope. Of course I did not go back.

This is the worst Dr to see. He always over talk you. He also tells you how you should feel. Let me not forget you better have a bank roll when you go to this office because they are money hungryyy.
