More about Dr. Allen Chernoff, MD, FACS
My goal is for you, as my patient, to have as fully developed a picture of your situation as possible. This includes knowledge of your disease, how it will affect your body and your lifestyle, and what treatment options will be best. I want you to understand what treatment was chose and why because I believe that in the best case scenario you and I are part of a team. It is as a team, each with different roles to play, that outcomes are maximized.
It’s clear that you have a wealth of online research and resources available at your fingertips; but between information that is outdated, slanted, or inappropriate for your particular situation, this is one case where more information isn’t necessarily a good thing.
As your urological cancer specialist, it’s my responsibility to assemble the team that will help you in weighing these decisions and options based on research and the personal experience and expertise of the team members. With this team in place, we can proceed together, making sure that you are thoroughly familiar with all the available options, enabling you and your family to participate more confidently in planning your treatment.

I'd rather blame ZocDoc for this: I provided my insurance information and have set appointment, but it has turned out that this particular specialist isn't taking my insurance plan. Lost time and spoiled mood for a whole day as a result.

February 25, 2015Gary R.Verified patient
I have been a patient of Dr. Chernoff's for four years. I greatly appreciate his warmth, but very businesslike approach. I am not interested in his fgamily or children--I want him to concentrate on my physical problems. He does that.
