Dr Cherney is VERY clear when explaining and making decisions about my treatment options. When I need (or dont!) Intraocular injections, he explains why. Always explaining the options and potential effects of a treatment or putting off a treatment.

Dr. Cherney always takes time to talk with me during my visits. I have been under his care for over 20 years, which is prior to when he joined Vanderbilt Eye Institute.
