- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 11/21/2025
First appointment with this provider. He was very thorough and able to analyze a lot of data to see an issue that may have been a problem. He scheduled a radiology procedure that discovered a previously undiagnosed medical condition and we are moving forward. I can not thank him enough for his thorough and complete assessment of my complicated case.

Happiest Doctor I ever met
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 11/1/2025
The doctor was very nice and he listened to what I had to say. Hopefully the doctor will tell me no more thyroid medicine is needed.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/15/2025
Dr. Cheema was very thorough with explaining everything.
- 3 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/9/2025
Advised me to ask about medication to make sure will not interact with another. Did that then no response from them just someone else who was not helpful. Usually it is good but now I'm being ignored and put off.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/19/2025
Dr. Cheema is the best provider I have ever had at Geisinger. He listens, is thorough, always physically checks me, and gives me a clear plan which he ensures I am comfortable following and clear on next steps. He does all of this while being personable and kind.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/17/2025
Dr. Rashid has taken the time to get to know me and my preferences for my care plan. He is very respectful of my decisions and thoroughly explains all options.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/13/2025
My doctor was very polite and professional. He was very thorough and listened to me and discussed possible causes for my issues, and test that I needed. He is a first rate doctor, a great asset for your hospital.

Dr. Cheema is always great and the resident Dr. […] was very good and friendly.
- 3 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/31/2025
Disappointed that all we can say is that I have to lose weight. With PCOS it is hard and more care needs to be done to help reach my goals. He makes it sound so simple.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/18/2025
Dr. Cheema is thorough and answers all of my questions and concerns. I am glad he is my doctor and recommend him to anyone with thyroid problems.
