My office visit was fine. She`s all business which was okay with me. The pap was done and she prescribed birth control pills. I told her my concerns about them. She said I should be fine. I started

This doctor is a rude bitch. One star is generous. She attempted to insert my IUD with absolutely NO painkillers and refused to even explain what she was doing down there. When I asked her to explain

Dr. Sanders is great. She is friendly and very professional. Gets you in and out of your appointment in a timely manner. If you are looking for a Dr. who is extremely warming, welcoming, and wants to

Here's my story, shortened from novel length rant.I started visiting Dr. Sanders a few years when I became pre-menopausal. But I didn't really need special care except for the yearly exam. I think she seemed congenial enough, yet not really warm and fuzzy. Visits were quick. Not much information shared. The office does seem to send out the yearly card reminding me it's time for the visit. So really, that was all I needed.I didn't have any symptoms or complaints, but she suggested that I get a yearly mammogram, as I had never had one before and I had reached "that age". Last year, I took the referral and went over to the Little Company just across the way from Dr. Sanders office and had my first ever routine mammogram.Ahh, or so I thought. A few days later the Little Company called and asked me to come back in for a follow up. Then, other procedures to come up with a diagnosis of breast cancer. I'm very grateful and thank God every day that it was diagnosed at such an early stage that I have made full recovery.Well, here's were I go to the rant....As I sat in the Little Company office talking with some coordinator, she said "I've spoken with Dr. Sanders, and she authorizes me to discuss your condition with and advise you". I never received a phone call from Dr. Sanders. I did just now (a year later) receive a post card in the mail from her office reminding me it is time for my yearly exam, and to please schedule an appointment or notify them if I have changed physicians.I really don't know what protocol is. But I know what it should be, because I know what human decency and compassion toward others is like. I know my primary doctor checked in with me and was very supportive. I didn't think Dr. Sanders and I would become best friends. But I felt that it would have been appropriate to have some follow-up, since she did refer me to the women's center, and since it is a woman issue. And since as an OB-BYN, I assumed that it would cover all the 'woman issues'.You decide.

She was brief and gave me proper treatment. I appreciate that I was able to get a same day appointment.

Hi, First off... she doesn`t deserve 1 star. I feel like I need to comment here because I have also had a terrible experience with Dr. Sanders. When I went in to see her after my 3 positive home

I have been a patient of Dr. Sanders for awhile but all that had really meant was showing up for my pap smear. I never had any issues with her or the staff...efficient and business-like...just what I…

Dr. Sanders herself is great. All business, and competent. The office staff however, is totally incompetent. I drove over a hour for a regular check up and triple made sure it would be with Dr.

Dr. Cheryl Sanders is down to earth - no pleasantries but full of information to give. If not for Dr. Cheryl Sanders, I would have had a C-section. Dr. Sanders is my OBGYN. She has been full of

I typed out a novel length rant just now, and deleted it. I'll try to keep this as short as possible.1) I went in for pelvic pain. She was very cold, used terms I did not understand, and answered my…

Based on Dr. Sander's resume, it's safe to assume she's pretty smart and is probably a very capable doctor. But if you're looking for someone to answer questions or appear to take an interest in you…

Dr. Sanders is fantastic!!! Very professional and doesn't rush you out of the office. If you have questions...she will answer them all professionally but on a more "down to earth" level. I recommend her 100%!
