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 Cherry was very knowledgeable and I feel took perfect care of me. I would have no issue recommend her.

My experience with Dr Cherry is very different from what other reviewers wrote. I found her to be very thorough, answered all my questions, seemed very familiar with my chart and labs at every visit. My whole experience at this facility was positive.

Dr. Cherry almost killed my husband 3 separate times by failing to communicate critical lab results.. She does not look at labs in a timely manner. The first incident she waited a week after the lab was drawn & the second she waited 48 hours. Both those times I called to check on the results & she hadn't even read them yet. She has lied about attempting to contact us & has never apologized for such egregious behavior. She charges an exorbitant amount of money for substandard care.

Dr. Cherry lacks tact, compassion and professionalism. She says inappropriate things, at inappropriate times. She gives false info and gives up on her patients too soon. I had another doctor look at some information she told me about my mother and he said he has no idea why she would give out false information. He looked over her records multiple times and said that what Dr. Cherry had announced to me and my whole family was completely wrong. She only saw my mom 4x over the course of 1 year.

Dr. Cherry was one of the worst doctors I've dealt with. Sidestepped around questions, gave information other doctors disagreed with and wouldn't explain reasoning, wouldn't make eye contact, and seemed very disingenuine and disinterested.
