Dr. Frederick Chancellor is one of the most diligent, thorough and caring doctors I have ever met. He treats each patient as his personal project, not "another appointments". He is always upto date on the latest research in the field of medicine and is highly emotionally intelligent. His work speaks to the passion he has for his work. He believes in balance - which is exactly what you want in a doctor.

Dr. Chancellor was fantastic, I can't say enough about his level of professionalism and knowledge of medicine. He took significant extra time with me going through my blood work results, answering my every question. Highly recommended as both a physician and a person!

He was so amazing ??
Verified patient
Dr. Chancellor is one of the most down-to-earth physicians I've ever met. When I arrived to my first appointment, I was the first of the day, and I found him sweeping the waiting room himself. I don't think I've ever encountered another doctor with that kind of humility. His bedside manner is commensurate; he's extraordinarily empathetic and makes a tremendous effort to address his patients' subjective experience as well as their symptoms.
Verified patient

I was very pleased with my visit today with Dr Chancellor. I was in the market for a good primary care doctor and I have my heart set on this man. He takes time with you and really listens. I say that because he asks questions on top of my answers and he digs deep to really get to know you. Great Visit! Glad I left Kaiser

As a new patient, I was blown away by Dr. Chancellor's interest in spending the time he needed to understand the whole picture of my health. He really understands the value of providing a 5-star experience, which is incredibly rare, especially in primary care.
Verified patient
I've just recently started seeing Dr, Frederick and he's been a huge blessing to have as a doctor. He took the time to reach out to me via phone several times outside of working hours to make sure I was doing ok when I was not feeling well. I've had many doctors and by far, doctor Frederick is the only doctor who's ever done such a great thing. This proves he does not just care about money, he cares 100% for his patients. To this day its been 1 month since I've been seeing him as my doctor and I must say, I couldn't be any happier. I recommend doctor Frederick to anyone who wants a doctor who actually cares and spends time with his patients to figure out the root cause of their problem.
Verified patient
Dr. Chancellor was fantastic. He examined my issue, answered my questions, and provided clear next steps, all while being extremely pleasant and professional. Highly recommended!!
Best doctor's appointment I've ever had!

No complaints!!!
Verified patient
My visit with Dr. Chancellor was professional but relaxed as well. I never felt rushed like I usually do in doctors' offices. He had great bedside manner that made me feel very open to express all my concerns. He was thorough with his examination & his explanations of my problem. At the end of his examination, he recommended a chiropractor who he visits himself. I was quite surprised when he called their office up himself & had asked to squeeze me in that day since I lived quite a drive away. By far, the best experience I had with a doctor.
Verified patient
He is a detailed oriented doctor and took time to examine my symptoms carefully and thoroughly and then prescribed meds and gave advice.
Great people skills, very smart.
Great
Verified patient
Dr. Chancellor was incredibly informative. He seemed genuinely interested im getting me better and taking preventative measures for the future. He was patient with all of my questions.
Verified patient
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Dr. Chancellor spends time to get to know you, asks questions and is a great listener. There is no feeling of being rushed through the appointment. All of my questions/concerns were addressed, I highly recommend him!
I met with Dr. Chancellor recently for the first time, and I can honestly say it was the best experience I've ever had with a doctor. I originally scheduled a 1PM appointment, on a Friday afternoon. Unfortunately, a work related meeting went over, and I was forced to reschedule. The rest of his day was booked, so I requested his next available appointment (as my issue was rather time sensitive). Without me asking, Dr. Chancellor offered to stay late, and delay his weekend, to meet me after his last patient; all so I could address my issue that day. When I arrived, I found the office to be comfortable and modern. Dr. Chancellor was just finishing up with his last patient, and by the time I was done finishing the standard paperwork, he was ready for me. Dr. Chancellor is extremely personable, understanding and caring. I tend to ask A LOT of questions, and it was clear that he knew a tremendous amount about my issue; he even offered to teach me about some of the cutting edge developments in the space. As a physician taking on a new patient, it would be tough to leave a better first impression then the one I got from Dr. Chancellor. If you want a caring, easy going, highly intelligent doctor who loves what he does – see my doctor, Dr. Frederick Marland Chancellor

Dr. Chancellor is excellent...I would highly recommend him. I was able to see him same day appointment as a new patient. Very thorough and explained everything very clearly. He was not at all rushed, took his time, and made me feel very comfortable. I will be back for any future medical needs.
I saw Dr. Chancellor for an annual physical and was very impressed. Dr. Chancellor was easy to talk to, thorough, and took the time to patiently explore and answer all of my questions and concerns.
Verified patient
Excellent service and attention. Dr Chancellor really took the time to genuinely understand my issues and concerns. Very good experience. Very knowledgeable.
Extremely professional, caring, and clearly extremely intelligent in his field. He sat down and listened clearly, did not jump to diagnosis, and truly got to know me as a patient before anything else.
