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.

Outstanding Primary Care Physician
My wife and I have been seeing Dr. Cherneskie for seven years now and he has always been a wonderful doctor with an excellent beside manner and a wonderful staff. Even though we moved out of state, we still kept him as our PCP and his staff is very accommodating about scheduling appointments when we are back in CT visiting our grand kids.

Amazing doctor.
I have know Dr. Cherneskie for over 20 years. He is extremely knowledgeable. He has always been a great listener to what is going on and gives sound advice. If the issue is not his expertise he will guide you to the right direction.

Awesome Doctor
Just had our annual Medicare physical. We trust Dr. Cherneskie and he and his wonderful staff are very accommodating. We live near DC but joined Medicare with him while visiting grand kids in New Haven. We chose to keep Dr. Cherneskie as our PCP rather than try to find another one in the DC area. His staff is very accommodating for scheduling around family visits to CT and the wait time for appointments and referrals is much less than in the DC area.
