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.

Excellent and Caring Oncology Doctor
I was transferred to Dr Chirichella during my blood cancer treatments. She is confident and calm. She was able to answer all of my questions regarding medications and potential outcomes for my specific type of cancer. I am currently in remission for 2 years. I highly recommend Dr Chirichella

I chose this Dr. for a second opinion. It paid off. She alerted me to discrepancies in my records that needed to be addressed. When it came time to begin treatments I chose her because she was open, honest, & able to explain my stuation to me in a way that did not leave me in a hopeless state of mind. She has taken me through each stage of my treatment with a complete understanding of what I was to expect. She is a great doctor with a fantastic clinic even far from my HOME. The best in Alaska.

I had a bad experience. Dr Chirachella misdiagnosed me with Stage 4 liver cancer. She gave me less than one year to live. I immediately went south to the Seattle area for a second opinion and an accurate diagnosis. It did not include liver cancer.
