Cecchi Gary MD

Runs late (one time kept me waiting 2 hours), barely has a moment to answer your questions, requires your credit card before you can even see him, schedules you to come back for no apparent reason other than to keep collecting payments and then his accounting department screwed up and without even a single call or letter sent me to collections. Seriously?!?

This doctor is just in one word RUDE. He has no interest in his patient. No respect for past treatment and did not even want to listen about our sons health history. Without even looking at his paper work. He told our son his cancer treatment was old fashion and had to completely be retested. Then he told him he needed antibiotics and send a prescription to the pharmacy. He is not even sick! Never ever would go here again!

Went in for my post-​treatment follow-​up. Despite the fact that I had somehow gotten the wrong appointment date his assistant reassuringly just fit me in.
Dr. Cecchi was warm and friendly and pleased I was doing so well. We discussed my current health, and the physical/​medical things I need to be doing in the future. He reassured me he would always be my doctor, and that if I ran into any medical problems, to please not hesitate to contact him for help.
Again, I would not hesitate to strongly recommend him to a family or friend. Strong advocate, extremely competent, and a caring individual.

Cannot say enough positive comments about the care Gary has shown… from his thorough research in diagnosing my cancer, to after care and follow up. As I deal with other health concerns post-​treatment, Gary has always been terrific in working with my other specialists, even when I could not get the necessary attention of the other doctors.
Dr. Ceechi is brilliant in his field and works very hard for his patients – I truly believe he saved my life. I am most thankful to have him on my side.

I was referred to him by my primary doctor to review my blood test results for a rare and not usually fatal condition but one that should still be addressed by a hematologist which this doc is. He was horribly rude and actually said to me, «Why are you here??? Why not come to me with something you could actually DIE from???» No thank you. Never will I recommend him.

Gary Cecchi is a fantastic physician, brilliant actually. He was chosen above his peers for the medical director role and oversaw a family member’s medical chart, providing preventative and alternative medicine, nutritional therapy. His beside manner is worth it because he is aggressive in his treatment plans.

Rude and dismissive. Barely looked up from his computer He. actually talked about how poorly he was reimbursed. We went elsewhere — quickly.

I have to concur with the other reviewer about wishing that there was a negative or no star rating allowed on Unilocal.I have honestly never felt so unheard, dismissed and frankly ignored. First let me say that I did not choose Dr. Cecchi, he stepped in for my doctor when my doctor was away from the office and that is where the trouble began. I needed to be admitted to the hospital for my illness (not cancer and therefore not Dr. Cecchi’s specialty). When I inquired why I was not being given certain prescribed medications Dr. Cecchi told me that he wouldn’t discuss the matter with me. My own doctor, though temporary would not discuss with me my treatment plan. Then to make matters worse when I questioned one of the nurses at the hospital, he called her in and berated her in front of me. I understood this behavior as teaching a two-​fold lesson 1) that he was king of this domain and how dare I have the audacity to question him and 2) he treats his employees worse than dirt and blames them for his inadequacies. Finally, to make matters worse, he tattled on me. Without my permission (and thereby violating HIPAA) he called my mother and convinced her that what I would have described as a simple misunderstanding prior to this, was in fact some sort of a psychological break. To say that I felt betrayed and misunderstood is an understatement. Anyway, long story short, I did have a meeting with a hospital therapist where I was assured that this is not the first time that this particular doctor has acted in this manner and that I should not take his behavior towards me personally. So I continue to bide my time until I can be discharged out of the hospital and can be assured of his total and complete disappearance from my life forever. This is the kind of man who seems to get off on making others feel badly, which to me, is unacceptable behavior for any human being, let alone a doctor. So very long and painful story short, Dr. Cecchi is the very last doctor that I would ever have treat me and I cannot wait to be as far from him as humanly possible.

I wish that I could leave no stars but obviously Unilocal does not allow that. Dr. Cecchi is the WORST doctor I have ever seen in my entire life. Not once did he ever ask me what my concerns were or what my symptoms were but he never did a physical exam as well. He completely disregarded what I came in for and even though I have been treated for the same issue for 14 years, he came to his own conclusions about what is causing the disease which had no base and does not even make sense. If you want to be treated like cattle, have someone not even look at you the whole time you are in their office and then have someone not even ask how you feel or what has been going on with you then this is your doctor. As for me, HE SHOULD NEVER SEE A PATIENT AGAIN!

My surgeon Dr. Moorstein refered me to Dr Cecchi, and I can say that I have heard nothing but GREAT things about him. I so look forward to working with him on my breast cancer… he has made me feel so much better about chemo

Dr. Cecchi saved my life! I went with my mom to see Dr. Cecchi when he gave her the diagnosis that her breast cancer had returned. During the appointment he asked me what I did about getting checked. I told him I had mammograms. He said I should have MRIs and told me to have my primary care doctor refer me to him. I did. Dr. Cecchi ordered the BRCA 1&2 test. I tested positive for BRCA 2. By the end of the year I had my ovaries and tubes removed and a double mastectomy with reconstructive surgery. The pathology on my tubes showed pre-​cancer cells and the pathology on my breasts showed cancer in my left milk duct. Thanks to Dr Cecchi I dodged two bullets and am now cancer free. He is a caring, no nonsense doctor who really cares and gets his patients the best care. I am forever in his debt.
