Patient Reviews
Sep 07, 2024
After 18 months of severe pain, Dr. Cheney took one look at my MRI results and told me I needed surgery. The prior surgeon who had also seen them, from another practice, NEVER did. Dr. diagnosed my problem in detail, explained the surgery, as well as the recovery. He listened to my questions and concerns and answered them all. Before, during and after my surgery, Dr. and his staff were amazing. He even sat down with my 2 children after my surgery was over and put them at ease. There aren't enough words for how thankful I am. He never made me feel rushed and took the time to listen. His bedside manner is top notch. He was highly recommended to me and I will highly recommend him over and over. THANK YOU.
