Dr. Cathy Cheng, MD

Dr Cheng has been a pleasure to be treated by since my first appointment for the following reasons: she's empathetic to your challenges; she listens to you; she spends quality time with you; she genuinely cares about your well being; she puts her patients first. Sadly she is leaving the PPO system and so I will no longer be able to see her. Fortunately she has me on a good path with the correct tools in place to address my insomnia. I highly recommend her to anyone who has Kaiser or Medicare insurance going forward. You will not be disappointed.

Dr. Cheng is an amazing doctor, and such a wonderful person! Her love for her specialty and care for her patients is the absolute best. In all my years, I've not met someone who is as thorough and genuinely caring as she is. I was lucky to be referred to her for my lifetime of untreated sleep apnea and right away, she put me at ease after a horrific sleep study 13 years ago had tainted my view of CPAP treatment. After a very lengthy consultation, she showed me her gallery of modern CPAP solutions and this put me at ease right away. I could not believe how technology has advanced from those gaudy full face masks to today's nose pillows and very quiet CPAP machines. Dr. Cheng reviewed the pros and cons of each solution and I was very open to the solution she ultimately recommended. And, Dr. Cheng also provides very detailed descriptions of the whole process, through her own documentation. We just had our 1 year check in and it's been a game changer for me! Thanks Dr. Cheng!

Dr. Cheng has gone above and beyond in every aspect of my care. From the moment I stepped into her office, I was welcomed with warmth and professionalism. During my visit, Dr. Cheng took the time to thoroughly explain my sleep issues and treatment options, ensuring I felt completely comfortable and well-informed throughout the process. Her attention to detail and genuine concern for my well-being were truly remarkable. Not only is Dr. Cheng highly skilled, but she is also incredibly kind and compassionate, always making sure I received the best possible care. Thanks to her expertise, my sleep has improved significantly. I’m truly grateful to have found such a dedicated and thoughtful doctor.

Dr. Cheng is one of the most patient and detailed oriented doctors I've had the pleasure having as a care provider. During a particular difficult personal period for me, Dr. Cheng was able to expedite my testing and treatment to help alleviate a chronic condition I had suffered for 2 years. She takes the time to listen, explain how your treatment path works, and what your short and longterm outlooks are. She handled my treatment with the appropriate sense of urgency, and demonstrated patience and understanding as she guided me through understanding what was happening all while maintaining a professional, but warm, candor. Thank you Dr. Cheng!

I very much appreciated Dr. Cheng’s caring help and guidance with my sleep issues. She is an excellent listener, very knowledgeable, always taking time to thoroughly understand my issues and to explain things clearly and in-depth. She is an excellent doctor!

I found visits with Dr. Cheng enjoyable and was also impressed with her knowledge and ability to listen and hear everything I mentioned, from sleep apnea to a suggestion for my RLS which actually worked! I found her to be one of the most engaging Doctors I have ever been treated by (in any filed!).

Doctor Cheng is excellent. A few months ago, I came to Hoag Sleep Clinic complaining of being tired every morning and snoring. After first an in-home followed by an in-lab sleep test, I was diagnosed with sleep apnea. Not only did Dr. Cheng go into many key details in my follow-up, but also the implications of my results. She clearly explained the process of receiving my equipment, using it correctly, and remaining compliant with my insurance for the long term. She even gave me a take-home guide that explained the various masks, machines, and supplies involved so I could correctly place my request with the supplier. I genuinely appreciate her personality, empathy, and especially advice. Thank you so much for your help!

I appreciate Dr. Cheng openness and care that she showed me on all my visits. She was in no rush with my appointment like most doctors and she covered off every single details. She even went as far as giving me reading materials and advice what to do and not to do when going to sleep. Dr Cheng spoke to me as if I was a good friend or family member and I appreciate that a lot. I am so sorry to see her leave and I can hope and pray that my next sleep doctor is as good as her. I say as good because I don't think you can get much better treatment than what Dr. Cathy Cheng provide.

Always spends the time needed and listens intently to gain the details needed from each individual patient. I'm sleeping much better with Dr. Chengs help.

I found Dr. Cheng to be wholly vested in addressing my sleep disorder and actions to correct my condition. Her manner was both professional and caring giving me comfort and confidence in her diagnosis and action. An asset to the Hoag organization. I have recommended and continue to recommend to family and friends in need to help.

Dr. Cheng is one the best doctors I've seen in the medical field. She truly cares about her patients, answers all of your questions and makes sure you get the time and attention needed. I'd highly recommend Dr. Cheng.

Dr. Cheng is extremely knowledgeable both in the theory and practical considerations for everything we discussed (including treatment options, paths forward and contributing factors). She is easy to talk to and made absolutely certain to both understand my experience and symptoms and make sure that I understood all aspects of the condition and the treatment. She went above and beyond to create quality guidance for me to review outside of our visits and ensure I had a ready reference when my treatment began. Honestly my visits with her have been the best doctor experiences I have ever had. It is clear that she cares for her patients and that she is dedicated to their success. I cannot recommend her enough, she is a fantastic doctor.

My visit with Dr. Cheng was wonderful. I actually enjoyed my doctor's visit with her. The way that Dr. Cheng talked to and treated me, I really felt like I knew her for a long time as family member or friend despite it being my initial consult visit with her. She left me thoroughly impressed with her bedside manner, excellent knowledge (she educated me on so many things none of my past sleep doctors even bothered to mention), and overall professionalism. She gave me a clear, customized, and in-depth plan, as well as very clear written instructions. You can tell she puts a lot of thought into what she says and does. Dr. Cheng is a careful and close listener, too.

Dr. Cheng is literally the most thorough and compassionate physician I have ever seen. It's rare to see doctors like her in this day and age. You can tell she truly cares about her patients and will do the right thing even if it is not the easiest or quickest thing to do. She is straightforward, yet detailed in her responses. She has been trained at some of the best places in the world, yet she does not use technical jargon with me, is very down-to-earth, and is very easy to communicate with. She dedicates a lot of time to educate me about various aspects of my condition. Thanks to her, I have been able to improve my sleep and overall health.

DR. Cheng is One the most Caring,Compassionate and thoughtful Physician's I've ever had.Her ability to always ask the right questions and overall attention to Details sets her apart from other Doctors.She is part of your Recovery journey and is always looking to improve your health status. I think she is the Best and I have had Several health Problems in the Past and Many other Doctors. She is One in a Million.

My initial visit was outstanding with Dr. Cheng. She afforded me so much time. She was thorough in asking about my symptoms, asking excellent and informative questions about my health, answered all of my questions regarding next steps, giving me an important packet to read prior to the sleep study, which she wrote. An excellent resource! The follow up meeting after the sleep study was informative and Dr. Cheng explained everything in detail. She is a brilliant and passionate doctor and am so thankful to be in her care.

Comprehensive annual review. I had many questions that were answered clearly and professionally. Several tips were offered by the Doctor that should allow for more effective use of my CPAP.

Horrible. I had a sleep procedure done and they sent the bill. I tried to call for 2 mos+ and no answer. They sent another bill. I tried to call 6 times just now and someone picks up and hangs up the phone without saying anything. What a joke! Invest in some front office!
