Cheryl A. Ewing

All the doctors who have seen me are very empathetic friendly and very professional.

Dr. Ewing is an amazing doctor! Not only is she highly knowledgeable and expert in her field she is very kind compassionate and personable in her interactions with her patients.

I kind of appreciate her advice to take some time off. Thank you Doc!

This was my first time meeting Dr. Ewing and I had heard nothing but great things about her. I waited an hour in the room for her to see me and she barely introduced herself before starting the exam and chatting through my reason for being there. She was very cordial the whole time and her bedside manner does seem to be great but I felt brushed off and not listened to for most of the time I was there. I came in wanting to talk about getting a double mastectomy due to some false alarm MRIs that had caused a lot of unnecessary stress post breast cancer diagnosis and she told me to get a therapist (which I already have) instead of actually hearing me about the fact that getting this surgery was the decision I was making. She did talk about a couple diff mastectomy options I would be a candidate for but she reiterated a couple different times that I should just get a therapist. I eventually stopped asking questions because I didn't feel like I was being heard and was being rushed through this appointment. When I asked her if she had a plastic surgeon she would recommend for my case she told me to call her office to schedule an appointment and then I would be assigned a surgeon. Even a few different names of surgeons who are on her team would have been helpful. Maybe she was having an off day? Maybe she was rushed because she was an hour late for the appointment? I'm not sure but it wasn't a great experience overall. Again she seemed very nice but that doesn't make up for the brush off.

Dr. Ewing is amazing. I've been telling all my friends about her. Being in such capable hands is a game changer.

Would recommend Dr Ewing to anyone needing breast care

The team is friendly and listens well.

All the folks at UCSF Mission Bay clinic have been very helpful and friendly in responding to my multiple questions on my cancer status. I really appreciate the friendly responses.

Dr Ewing was warm professional and immediately put me at ease. She spoke in a way that I could understand and covered all my concerns. I felt that her time was all mine and that she was not in a rush. She was more than I could have asked for. I feel like I'm in excellent hands

Dr. Ewing was very professional and took my concerns of the surgery very seriously and answered all my questions.

Thank you to Dr. Ewing for carefully reviewing my case and referring to other colleagues to review.

I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Dr Ewing made me feel listened to informed and confident in her expertise

Dr. Ewing is the best

She made me feel at ease and confident in the treatment plan. Amazing person!

I wasn't told the medical students would be joining the visit (or asked if it was OK). It made the experience very awkward especially when talking about something so sensitive.

Dr. Ewing is simply amazing. She's the third surgeon I've seen for my issue and the first one who actually listened to me and took my concerns seriously. My mind was at ease after this appointment knowing I've found someone I trust.

Dr. Cheryl Ewing = EXCELLENCE

I have not gotten to that part of treatment yet.

UCSF is the Best!!

The visit was very short... 10 minutes. Not asked how I feel one week after surgery i.e.pain concern questions. In addition to discussing result of my post-lumpectomy findings during this visit my expectation of this visit was to review with me the genetic report (Mammaprint) result its Implication on my cancer prognosis etcc because all I was told by provider's office (and only upon my request) some weeks ago was the result. When asked the provider stated she did not have ready access to this report and did not offer next step.

My visits to date with this provider have felt rushed and impersonal. With a 'cancer' diagnosis extra care should be exercised to help the patient process the diagnosis surgical options etccc. I did appreciate her thoroughness to call out the unique nature of my cancer.
