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.

Unpleasanty Surprised
Dr Cherish was not the type of provider I had been use to. She was very cold and condescending with me. I was told that I was going to die, if I didn't get my diabetes undercontrol. The results were from like 8 years ago. When the correct results came in, I was no longer even pre-diabetic. She also was supose to ve signing a medical release form for an upcoming oral surgery, because I have very low platelets. That could be life-threatening if we couldn't get my mouth to stop bleeding after surgery, and she pointed to the paper and said anything we should be worried about? Do you have any medical concerns? I poliety informed her I wasn't a doctor and my dentist had given me the form to be filled out by a professional! I also have history of anxiety, in which I told her and blood pressure. With the treatment I was receiving,I.started to feel like the doctor didn't care and with her sighing and roller her eyes as I spoke why would I? I called spoke with management nothing done. Beware!

I'm surprised to find such a great doctor anywhere
I've honestly gotten used to doctors who spend zero time with you and are somewhat competent. Dr. Sharish immediately understood everything and it clearly at the top of her game. A great doctor and a wonderful surprise.

Told my friend she probably had a brain tumor without sending her to specialists/etc. She went and got an MRI and everything was basically normal, went to ask sharish what she should do next and got told she could “talk to her after her lunch break or make an apt. Im not seeing you right now” with no other patients in office and 40 more minutes until she went to lunch… Told my friend her bad ear infection was “viral and to just let it run its course.” Never prescribed any medicine for the pain or high fever she was having. Does not care about patients, only cares about getting paid. What kind of doctor puts that fear of a tumor into patients without seeing specialists/doing scans before hand. Awful “doctor” and doesn’t need to be practicing.

Wonderful Doctor
When I arrived at the office, I noticed how professional everyone was while maintaining the quality of caring. The wait time was small and the whole process was speedy, and never did I feel like I was just a number. Dr. Sharish took her time with me was very pleasant and friendly. At no time did I feel I was just another person on her list to see. I am very pleased with my descension to obtain her for my GP.

I asked to see Dr. Rebecca Sharish. I went to her many times when she worked at a urgent care facility. I have seen her many times over the past 20 years and she has always helped get me better! She is a great Doctor!!

I was hesitant to see her based on previous reviews but I had a very pleasant visit with her. She was nice, professional and humble when she was uncertain about something and made it known if she was unsure. I’m happy that I switched to her!!

Very rude Dr. and unprofessional. Hateful and disrespectful to my whole family. Took my son for a physical so he could play his first year of football. As soon as she walked in the room she kept telling him that he was going to have brain injury and that his brain was just going to bounce around in his head. And she let us know that she didn’t want to even do the physical because she thought he was to young. Professional and personal opinions are two different things.
