Dr. Richard Cuckovich, DO

Always like dr cuckovich

I've been seeing Dr. Cuckovich for over 5 years, and I've never been happier with a doctor. He listens to what you have to say, takes all concerns seriously, doesn't downplay or ignore problems and is friendly and compassionate each and every visit.I have recommended him to many friends and family members who are equally happy with their care. If you're looking for a physician that listens, cares, and makes you feel completely comfortable at every appointment, I highly recommend Dr. Cuckovich

Excellent Dr.

Dr. Cuckovich is an excellent and competent physician.

I felt heard and not rushed during my visit.

Dr. Cuckovich took a long time to talk with me and was very thorough. Would highly recommend him to others.

Dr. Cuckovich is a well rounded Doctor. He knows the way of the medical and the holistic medicine which is what I need and was looking for. Both ways can assist with bettering my health

Dr Cuckovich is an excellent physician!

Dr. Cuckovich is a world class doctor. The best I've ever had.

I am very pleased with Dr. Cuckovich's care that I received. He not only greets you but listens to your concerns. He also ask very important questions to help diagnose your ailment. Examines you very closely to make sure everything is how it should be. Discusses your treatment options and always makes you feel he has your best interests to keep you healthy. He always asks if you have any other concerns. He walks you down the hall, wishes you a wonderful day and lets you know if for any reason you need to see him please call. Very knowledgeable, kind, considerate Doctor as well as a gentleman.

The physician was excellent, very kind and caring!

Both nurse and doctor were phenomenal. Until this visit, I've never met medical staff that were friendly, personable, and spoke to me like I was a real person.

Dr. Cuckovich is a wonderful doctor. Blessed to be his patient.

Not the doctor for you if you want a doctor who will see you when you are sick. He is scheduled full of wellness appointments, and has no room for emergency or sick patients. Office wants you to schedule out 4 to 5 weeks if you are sick. They tell you to go to urgent care for everything.

I am a fairly new patient and am so blessed to have found Dr. Cuckovich and his staff. Dr. Cuckovich is very kind and compassionate. And his office staff is Amazing and very helpful. The girls up front worked so very hard to help me get my medications covered, beyond what anyone has ever done for me in any office prior. Absolutely everyone has been very friendly and caring. I am so happy to have this office to manage and care for my medical needs.

I missed a phone appt due to my little boy getting covid that morning. The secretary had reached out several times to get a hold of me finally when she did she was very nasty about me missing my appointment and told me that the doctor will not make an exception for me and that’s not the way that they run things and that I needed to reschedule . I explained my hectic work schedule and she told me that if their hours didn’t fit into my schedule then she didn’t know what to tell me. She was very nasty when I was persistent on her asking the doctor if he could call me on that day at any time she finally after about 10 minutes of arguing with me , did ask him and then called me back and told me that I needed to find a new doctor. Very terrible customer service and patient satisfaction and I would never go there again

I rate Dr. Cuckavich a five star rating. He listens to what the patient has to say. He is in no hurry to grab that door knob. The staff is very nice and caring to. He does not push the pills which I applaud that in a doctor these days. Very caring doctor.

THANK GOD HE MOVED TO ANOTHER BUILDING. My experience with Cuckovich started when i was looking for a Primary Care Dr at Mercys Howland Medical Center last fall. i was forced to sign up with him because all the other doctors I researched & wanted were not taking new patients for the time being. While i waited for those other Drs, i decided to use Cuckovich for the time being. Long story short, he was worse than expected. For example I developed Hives as a reaction to something. While i give Cuckovich credit for being thorough with testing/bloodwork, he was really weird with medication. I talked about using a Benadyrl type Medication that helped my skin heal quickly when i got Hives & insect bites, but he said it was too "risky." I asked why i never had a bad experience before then & he didnt respond. He just told me another medication would be better so i took it. Guess what? it took my skin 3x as long to heal & missed days of work. Thank god hes gone & the other Drs are now available!

The other reviews clearly encompass his dismissive approach of treating patients medicinally, but when he does provide a prescription, he orders medication with significant risks of nasty side effects. He does this in an effort to protect himself from potential lawsuits because he does not wish to compromise his own license; therefore he would rather see a patient check into the ER with a dangerous heart arrhythmia from the outdated medicines he orders, than to risk an overdose. Even if you are an engineer, a lawyer, or in the medical field yourself, he will not order any opiates, benzodiazepines, or schedule drugs for you. These types of physicians are dangerous to the health of the individual, as well as to our entire public health community. He thinks that he is above the law and will restrict your anxiety medicine, even when you have taken it from your former physician, like myself, for more than a decade, with no penalties or flagged drug screens. Do NOT establish with him!
