Very positive. Dr CHERIAN introduced himself and listened to me. He showed me my x rays and explained his findings. I didn't feel rushed and found him very personable.

I was very satisfied.
Dr. Cherian was amazing. I have a lot of orthopedic issues and my hip was in so much pain. I left the office and a day after I feel 95% better ! I will recommend this surgeon to others with problems like mine !
