I have always been impressed with the thoroughness and promptness with which I received assistance. In addition, I have never waited very long to be called back into a room and the doctor usually arrives to the room within a reasonable amount of time. I am very pleased with the office & office staff as a whole.

Dr. William Cheeley is an extremely excellent doctor. He saved my life back in 2023. And I trust him with anything. He is fantastic. So I would never question, I don't question his ability. And I would refer and have referred many people to his practice. So I have to say his team is great too, but Dr. Cheeley is amazing.

I still think it would be much better and much more efficient to have blood work done before you see the doctor so that they can actually go over the blood work with you while you're there. You used to do this practice. It's gone now. Bring it back.

The Lake Oconee Clinic WellStar/AUHealth Team is the finest local clinic we have had in 54 years of marriage! Dr Cheeley is the consummate PCP medical professional... He is totally on top of and current on my myriad of medical care items and the finite details of all records. He is a World Class, empathetic, critical thinker... He has gained our total confidence. The nursing and medical administration staff is awesome- performing their roles exceptionally also. What a blessing!

I'm writing this to report that everyone in the back was nice and friendly and helpful. But the building was not clean on the inside . The lobby had spider webs underneath the chairs, tables were dusty. The floor was dirty with trash on it and windows needed cleaning. The building didn't smell fresh. This just a few. The building needs a good cleaning i went the bathroom in the back it didn't smell fresh at all I put drip some water on the floor and used some paper towels to clean it up and the paper towel was so dirty. The building just need a deep cleaning.

Showed up on time for appointment. Nurse asked typical health questions. Sat in exam room for 45 minutes waiting for Dr Cheeley. Finally got up and told the nurses sitting at the nurse station I was leaving. No contact about lateness, no "sorry he's tied up". Nothing. I think I was treated with disrespect and very poorly. I was basically stuck in a room and forgotten. There is no excuse for that type of treatment for anyone. I am very angry.
