Both Dr. Cherney and the ophthalmology fellow working with him were wonderful. Dr. Cherney went above and beyond to give me the best care possible. This is why I choose Vanderbilt. I could not be happier. I was treated with respect and all of my concerns were addressed. I would rate my visit A+++

You always feel doctor is a bit rushed. I've gone to this doctor for years and feel he wasn't always rushed. The way it is now or because I'm getting older, I notice more. Waiting after drops, lots of patients complain out loud to others about wait time.

Several years experience with Dr Chesney has always been good. His explanation of my condition is detailed enough to understand.

Dr. Cherney will give me as little or as much time as I require. He is the best!!!!

The doctor was not aware of why he had asked me to return, the test he had asked me to get; I therefore spent well over two hours and paid a copay for nothing but to ask a question!
