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.

This was my second visit with Dr. Doina. It was the worst treatment i have ever received from a Dr. in my life. She would not let me explain to her about paperwork her office received on my behalf. She starting yelling at me telling me to loss some weight,, denying me for physical therapy . She walked out of the room into the waiting room still yelling for me to loss weight, There was a patient in the waiting room that looked at me, shook his head with a sympathetic look. Even the receptionist apologized for the Dr. behavior , as well as saying to me that the Dr. must have had a bad morning. The crazy part is I was her first patient of the day , and no that doe not excuse Dr. Doina for her unprofessional behavior. I was embarrassed,humiliated , and mad as hell. Reading other reviews I see this is not the first time she has yelled at or mistreated a patient. I will not be going back there or referring anyone to her.

Words could not explain the callousness I experienced at this office. My family had been going here for years & apparently there was some billing discrepancy in which (my parents) owed an unspecified amount to the office for a visit.. I had no knowledge of this until years later when I went into the office as an adult and met with Doina, who took the opportunity to bash and belittle myself and my family. I left in tears. I called my father embarrassed and distraught to find out when I was a minor in her care there was a discrepancy with our insurance that was never sorted out, he then told me upon his last visit to her she also displayed the same cruel behavior towards him and said to him "It's no wonder why your wife left you" after finding out that my parents had gotten divorced. I still do not know what the dollar amount was, and frankly considering Doinas frequent trips to Aruba and other luxury retreats I'm sure it was merely a pack of gum to her. But no matter any amount, it is

I been seeing Doina for a year. I have had some strange symptoms after having a baby. I went to her today and she yelled at me in front of my husband telling me that there isn’t anything wrong with me and that I need a shrink. She called me a Russian princess and said that I’m exaggerating. She then said she was mad because she ran test and they were fine so there isn’t anything wrong with me, but that she will do blood work again and it will be the last time. I have never had such an unpleasant and unprofessional medical experience as I have with her today. She is incompetent and I wouldn’t recommend her to treat anyone.

Dr. Cherciu is by far the best physician I have ever been to. She cares for all her patients, and examines them thoroughly and accurately! I have been to doctors in the past that will basically ask you what's wrong, briefly check your vitals, and prescribe something, without really physically examining you. Dr. Cherciu will do everything a professional physician should do. She is thorough and will physically examine you to make sure that she finds the problem and the right remedy. Great doctor!!
