Dr Cheeley is wonderful. The office staff and the service they give is terrible. I have been in healthcare over 50 years and never have I seen such an incompetent and rude staff. Patients are complaining and nothing is done. They are leaving for other Doctors because of this staff

I enjoyed meeting Dr.Cheeley today. I hope to keep him for a while as this is my 4th primary care Doctor and Nurse Practitioner I have had since joining this practice when I moved here in 2019. I have loved all the Doctors I have had and hated to see them leave this practice. I hope Dr. Cheeley will be my Doctor for a long time. I feel it is important to have a good rapport and confidence with your doctor. I have been a nurse for 50 years and understand the doctor / patient relationship.

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!
