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.

I was so blessed to find out about Dr. Cherry. Beyond her kindness, patience and professionalism...she truly saved my son's life. I am forever grateful!

Thank you Dr. Cherry ??
Dr Cherry is a rare find. She's a phenomenal Prationer. She sat down with me, took her time to listen to me, I felt heard and she gave me direction to help me with my problem. She followed up with me several times to see how I'm doing. Her bedside makers are amamazing. I'm now on my way to recovery. I highly recommend her. Thanks Dr. Cherry.

Delayed test to diagnose my one year old daughter (who has a history of intestinal surgery), stating she would need to be sedated for 6-7 hours. Imagine my surprise when she diagnosed her 14 months later, after a 30 minute endoscopy, with the exact same thing she said could only be detected by the 6-7 hour test. No ma'am! This human wants to 'practice' medicine. Has no real concern for the well-being of her patients. Shes smart but I think her main focus is impressing her colleagues. Avoid unless you want to be going to nonsense appts for years with no clear treatment plan explained. She's gotta make money somehow!

I had the best experience with Dr. Cherry she is so kind and compassionate. She took more than enough time answering all my questions. Normally we would be in and out at Radys within 30 minutes feeling uneasy and rushed through out appointment. Let me tell you she spent over an hour with us! In today's wold what doctor spends that much time with a patient! The atmosphere was so calm and very kid friendly. I was also able to get an appointment that same day! I highly recommend Dr. Cherry!!
