Dr. Cheng is a wonderful caring, dedicated, knowledgeable doctor. I am so happy I found him. He helped me get thru my cancer detection and I am now on my way to better health. His staff also was exceptional and caring. The entire process was actually pleasurable. Thank you Dr. Cheng

Except for few employees, the rest are rude and does not help the wheel chair patients like other Drs. Office staff. Dr. cheng is a fine physician.

Great physician, highly recommended by my primary care physician. His staff is short, bordering on rude. An appointment was canceled and I was not informed until I arrived. His staff overbooks him, you can expect at least 45 minutes from the time you arrive until you will actually see him. He seems to care greatly about his patients and he will spend whatever time you need. The office administration of his staff, not the clinical care givers, may be the worst I've seen from a patient and customer interaction.

Dr Cheng is one of my favorite doctors. He is very thorough and experienced in his field. I am so grateful to him as he sent me to a doctor who found I had celiac disease. All of my mother's family ..4 generations....die only of cancer....and Dr Cheng has been very supportive to me. I have only high raves about this kind man.

I have utmost confidence in Dr. Cheng and his staff. They make me feel like a very important patient and I never feel like they are rushing to get the job done. Dr. Cheng is very observant and calls for the slightest change that may occur in his follow up testing. The goal is to make me feel comfortable during a very trying time.

Choose another doctor. Dr. Cheng and his staff (Jillian) are only concerned about receiving payment before they will administer drugs for chemo. Due diligence is up to you and no one else.

Dr.Cheng was an amazing doctor to my father during his fight for in-operable pancreatic cancer. I was always with my dad for chemo & check-up's & he was always patient with my dad with all the in depth questions he asked, all the staff & nurses at the office were exceptionally great! Dr.Cheng never sugar coated reality when he would explain things to us. When fighting a tough disease-- you just want the honest truth of what is truly going on. Our family truly appreciated this.
