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 Chukumerije is terrific. Great listener. Great explainer. Great energy. Always a two-way conversation.

I must say... It was refreshing in a very good way! I have been a client of Cedars since I was a child. During and after the pandemic some care providers have been short, irritable, condescending and just disconnected. My appointment yesterday, seeing this new doctor that was a referral. He was kind, patient, informative, pleasant, sensitive to my concerns, impressionable. I left feeling heard, comfortable with the information and encouraged. For that I'm extremely grateful

He’s one of those doctors that try to squeeze in as many patients as possible in 30 minutes. Appointment was rushed. He doesn’t listen to what you have to say and dismisses symptoms.
