I was very pleased with Dr. Cheleey and his concern and thoroughness of my examination and the information that was given to him to decide whether or not I could have surgery. And I do thank him for being very honest about it. And I'm disappointed at this time that I might not be able to have it yet, but maybe later on when my test regulate. But thank you very much.

Dr. Cheeley is very thorough and goes the extra mile. He especially did that for my husband and did not give up until he found the answers when he had a life-threatening pulmonary embolism. We highly recommend Dr. Cheeley.

No one seemed happy to be there. I get it, it's work. But maybe lighten up a bit, maybe smile a little. It's always a good thing to promote a positive environment at work, for both fellow workers and patients. Probably was just an off day.

I like and trust Dr. Cheeley but both the pharmacy and I have a lot of difficulty if we need to contact the office for assistance outside of a regular visit. The pharmacy has told me on multiple occasions that they were unable to get anybody in the office to respond to their calls for refills. Also incorrect prescriptions have been called in on a couple of occasions, once the drug itself and another time the dosage.
December 7, 2025

Dr. Cheely and all staff are polite, proficient and extremely professional. My wife and I are grateful and well pleased.

Dr. Cheeley was very respectful and asked me lots of questions and took time with me, answered any questions of my concerns. The staff was very friendly. Everybody seemed very professional. The only thing I could say is that the waiting room could use a little updating. That's it.
