List of Richard J. Cegelski's Reviews
A dedicated doctor whose bedside manner encouraged me to live against the odds. Nothing sugar coated, but in his practical manner, gave me advice on how to beat the odds. Frankly, I think I owe my life to him.
it was great
I saw Dr Cegelski in the ER at VCMC. He was extremely knowledgable, kind, and had great bed side manner.
It took 4 hours of waiting in the ER to be seen for severe back pain. This man kept saying "I cannot give you pain medication" and I never asked nor even spoke word medication. I only answered his questions that he asked me, and he assumed even before saying hello to me that I wanted "pain medicine". He caused me great pain by making me do things like walk and resist, typical things for lower back pain, and he said that it seemed like spinal cord damage symptoms, despite a clean MRI a month previous. I did have a pinched spinal cord for 3 months recently until I had surgery. But no one took my reflexes when I had to drag my legs up onto the bed with my hands and literally fell onto the floor whilst trying to stand 3 hours earlier, or tested me THEN. He accused me of faking symptoms, because I did not want an MRI (which causes a LOT more pain, which wasn't going to be treated), and refused to let me leave the ER unless I walked out. So I painfully had to force myself to walk out with my walker. I should have brought my wheelchair to my doctor's appointment. This man shouldn't be dealing with people.
I could not count how many times this man said he was "not going to give pain medication" to me, after he woke me up after I waited 4 hours in the ER to be seen by a doctor for severe pain. I had 3 hours sleep the previous night, upon wakening I was in excruciating pain and soon began crying. I never asked for medication, and he accused me of faking symptoms of spinal cord damage. My spinal cord was pinched for 3 months not too long ago, and this fact was in my chart. He said I could not leave the ER unless I walked, yet walking made me hurt horribly and was difficult, yet he was unwilling to try to treat me. Horrible doctor with horrible people skills. He should not be in practice. Worst doctor since the doctor who maimed me pinching my spinal cord.

Selection Criteria
All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
