Best doctor ever! So helpful and smart! Dr. Cheema is a master of his craft! Best Dr. I have ever had. Wouldn’t be here without him.

I really did appreciate Dr. Cheema at first. He seems like a genuine and kind human. And then when I asked for help extending my leave he got upset because I missed an appointment and told me he thought I was ready to go back to work. I told him what my job was telling me was acceptable, how I needed some extra breaks in between being screamed at by customers and that since I was grieving and had a new family crisis and death I needed some more time off work in addition to postpartum depression and anxiety. He got upset with me when I missed an appointment. His adhd, sleep deprived patient who was already fighting for her life missed an appointment and he immediately defaulted to being frustrated with me the next time I saw him. And then he told me "I will tell your job that you need these extra breaks and that once a month you need to call out for a mental health day no problem" SO I DID JUST THAT. I called out and I waited on the accommodations to come through my companies leave and accommodations department. But that never happened. Instead I get a phone call WEEKS later from Dr. Cheema. Where he apologizes for LYING TO ME and says he will only agree to the breaks. Getting me in trouble with my job for no good reason. I've had 5 deaths in the past few years on top of 2 births that both came with postpartum issues. He knew I was struggling and gaining an excessive amount of weight. My heart rate was an issue, and I was being monitored with the meds he prescribed. On top of this he had the audacity to call me out for missing an appointment ? When I would be waiting 30-45 minutes PAST my appointment time on a regular basis with no penalty or monetary benefit from him.... He wants to require payment if I miss it if I'm late but what about when HE IS LATE... nothing. After he admitted lying to me and he left me hanging high and dry in the middle of a crisis I sought help elsewhere. I found someone else who knew exactly what I needed and had no problem telling my job that I needed breaks and a day off from the abuse that came with the job. AND HERE WE ARE YEARS LATER... his wife Karen continues to call me asking me for money. "I'm not sure why you're not answering my calls" uhhh... maybe because your husband is a liar and predatory on people who truly need help? Let's chalk the money I "owe" you on services NOT RENDERED. Take the money I "owe" you as opportunity cost, y'all wasted my time numerous times. Read the other reviews on YELP. You're unorganized and I'm not paying another cent. Take my non payment as my late fee for all the times you made me sit in the waiting room WAY past when my appointment was. Respect is mutual and it's clear we both have none of that for each other. Time to move on. Don't call me again. I could have written this review years ago and should have. Your passive aggressive voicemail asking why I don't answer your calls just did it for me today. That's enough. Why didn't you answer my calls when I needed actual help? on top of that I owe what? $80 in late fees. Gtfoh. Leave me alone. "Sorry I lied to you" all I wanted was time to myself to recover. He told me I could have that and then backtracked trying to say because he didn't see me those days I called out that he couldn't cover them... huh??? This man saw me once a month and KNEW WHAT I WAS GOING THROUGH. He TOLD ME he would get it covered and then LATER he told me "nvm" LEAVE ME ALONE. I'm not paying another dime to a liar or a thief of time. Figure it out yourself! ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. Do not get caught up in this man's bs. I got the help I truly needed elsewhere with no problem. Anyone considering this man should heed my warning and do the same! He should retire now, with any shred of dignity he has left. He's getting up there in age and probably should just walk away before more people start talking.

He genuinely try’s to help his patience

Saved my life as far as I'm concerned. Took me when I had given up. Now I'm enjoying a productive, busy life.

My son saw Dr. Cheema for issues from a TBI, and was doing well. Then, we lost our health insurance. I called the office to let them know and to ask if we could pay for the next visit before our new insurance began (we have a secondary but they don't take it), but as soon as I said we lost our insurance, Karen (office manager and Dr. Cheema's wife) immediately said she was cancelling my son's next appointment. No option to pay for it ourselves, and she actually said to me "Good luck finding another doctor. No one takes that insurance. And that means no more medications, too!" WHAT?! She sounded almost gleeful. I was in shock. Fortunately, all but one of his meds had a refill, but they REFUSED to send in a refill for that one prescription. This is a CHILD, on a mind-altering medication and they prevented him from getting it! Needless to say, we aren't going back with our new insurance, and don't recommend this office. Dr. Cheema is lovely, but his wife is a heartless shark!

Best Doctor in Town Dr. Cheema is a fabulous doctor. He is very gentle and patient, and he carefully explains everything to my children so that they are informed regarding their medications and their mental health. He has gone out of his way to be available to us and is always awesome.

Dr cheema is the BEST! Me and my Daughter both see him. He's amazing!

I've been going to Dr. Cheema for years. He's a good doctor and very knowledgeable in his field. He's a patient listener, offers good recommendations, and takes as long as a patient needs. Occasionally, this may cause the next patient to wait, but that is rare and if you were the one needing extra time, you would be grateful. The staff is accommodating with scheduling and it's easy to reschedule as long as you give them the standard 24 hr notice.

I am really sorry to have to write this review but I don't want anyone else going through what I am going through. He seemed like a good doctor. I had trouble understanding him because he has a very thick accent and is very soft spoken but I decided to overlook it and continue to see him. Without going into too much detail, he completely abandoned me when I needed him most. Plus if you call to talk to him, you have to go through his wife and i did not feel comfortable sharing my health information with someone who is not a licensed professional because she will give her input but she is not a licensed professional. She is the bookkeeper. When i started pushing back about this their whole demeanor changed. I really needed him to help me and he refused to. I hope next time i will listen to my instincts and walk away. I am very sad this happened. Please do not use this office.
