Dr. Cheney seemed genuinely concerned about the situation and after the exam explained his findings in a way that was clear to understand.

Dr has no respect for his patience time and does not communicate with you regarding being late.

Dr. Churney is absolutely incredible! I read many great reviews about him before my first visit, yet he still exceeded my expectations. He is brilliant with a quiet, calm confidence. He quickly and easily diagnosed an issue that I have spent years with other ophthalmologists trying to resolve. He thoroughly explained my issue, answered all my questions, and offered much needed reassurance. Dr. Churney is personable, professional, and knowledgeable. I fully trust and appreciate his judgment and care.

The biggest thing is I was having a 8 level pain differential and was denied pain medicine not for my benefit, but for the future benefits of those who are in pain this need to be addressed
