Dr Cheema md , we had our first visit to established care and I am a complex disabled person so we are off to a good start as she is very intelligent and good bedside manner. I have to find a good way to transfer from other hospitals records to make sure the medication is correct as it is outdated as I am moving my main PCP to her and I need to get her all the data and medical records that I believe she doesn't have yet. She's extremely intelligent. There was so much more. I needed to tell her on our first appointment.

Dr. Cheema is an excellent doctor. She offered clear explanations during my visit, including the need for altering my blood pressure medicine for a month and retesting in a month (as my blood pressure has gone down - perhaps due to loss of weight) . I totally trust her!

I picked her based on location and being a female. I like her bedside manner and that she was direct with me.
February 20, 2025
Very nice and understanding. She said she was a gerentologist. Does this mean I'm not old enough for her to be my primary? One of the notes in the portal directed me to follow up with my primary. I thought I was there to establish her as my primary.

Dr Cheema was easy to talk to, she was kind and respectful, and we were able to adress my issues
January 1, 2025
The doctor was focused on AI and not me or my needs. If she read through my records and not relied on AI she would have noticed I have liver disease, MS and no thyroid. She would have noticed that when I have an ear infection I get dizzy which can cause falling. She did not notice that I had recently seen all I f my specialty doctors and all was extremely good.instead of referring me to repeated recent tests she should have focused on currentcissusescthat brought me into the appointment.She also needs to realize that if a patient is a Geriattic the are not stupid she needs to listen to their concerns.
December 27, 2024
The PA and the doctor were great-efficient but warm, non judgmental, and listened well.
December 26, 2024

She's very good at the work that does. I am definitely going to recommend her to as many people as I possibly can get in touch with. She is very concerned about my health situation.
