The doctor was excellent. He really new exactly what was wrong and explained my injury in a way that was easy to understand. I highly would recommend him.
Great Doctor!
Chris Cherian is the best. He listens, he comes up with solutions. I love him. However, I don't love the parking situation in Paramus. It's very difficult, especially for somebody who can't walk.
I've already recommended him to my daughter.
