Recent reviews

Dr Cheetham is passionate about her patients. She absolutely loves her profession and it comes across. She explains the human anatomy and procedures using diagrams and props. I'm not surprised that she's a great surgeon as she possesses a great level of knowledge and experience and can bridge the gap with highly technical medical aspects within a lay person's perspective.
I was amazed how friendly and efficient everyone was in the office. Dr. Cheetham did not rush the visit and clearly explained possible diagnoses, procedures, and tests. Iam so glad I went to her!
