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.

Amazing Doctor!
I was referred to Summa Cardiology following a visit to ER. I was very fortunate to see Dr. Chaffee. Though it was my first visit with him, it was obvious he had thoroughly reviewed my history and tests which had been done. He took his time talking to me and asking more questions. He explained what he felt was going on, and wrote the diagnosis down so I would remember. He was reassuring and exceptionally kind. He asked me twice if I had any questions he did not answer before the visit ended. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I am so grateful for Dr. Chaffee’s expertise and compassion. I would highly recommend him!

I was totally impressed with Dr. Chaffee! This was the first I had seen him, and it was obvious he had carefully reviewed my history and medical tests. He took his time and was very thorough in his questioning and explanations. He asked me twice at the end of the visit if there were any questions I had that he had not covered. I felt he was exceptionally knowledgeable and had a wonderful, caring bedside manner. I couldn't have been more pleased with this visit. I would highly recommend him!
