Patient Reviews
Dec 13, 2016
Dr. Cheruku diagnosed my father's cancer a few years ago, which helped to save his life. I have been a patient for several years and she has always been courteous, professional, and knowledgeable. She has a very pleasant demeanor and makes one feel at ease. I am facing a probable cancer diagnosis and I am thankful for her thoroughness, as other doctors had dismissed my concerns. I may have a fight ahead but her skill as a doctor has at least given me a chance.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?
