This doctor does not take private insurance which is a big negative. Who can afford to see a doctor without insurance?

Very caring. Takes all the time needed to listen and explain. She will help with other health issues other than gynecology, if possible or refer you to where you need to go. I have never been as pleased with other gynecologists that I have seen over the years.

I have been so spoiled by Dr. Cherry & her office. She spends more than adequate time with you, explaining your options and helping you decide what is best for you instead of just telling you what she's going to do. Since Dr. Cherry no longer provides OB services, I'm having a difficult time finding an OB who will satisfy my needs, not rush through the appt, and leave me wondering if I even matter to them. Two stories that you'd never hear about from someone else: (1) I would never abuse it, but to make sure we got the right Walgreens, she gave me her cell # so I could text her the correct address!! (2) When I dropped in to let the office know I was pregnant, she even came out for a few minutes to answer some of my initial questions & gave me some free prenatal vitamin samples!!! She truly goes above and beyond and I would recommend her to anyone and look forward to being back in her care after my baby is born!!
