I'm a new patient who waited 1 year to be Dr. Scheck's patient. The quality of this first visit was excellent. It was above expectations. It was also impressive that she cared about issues which create barriers for me, a senior woman, to get access to care. Her clinical assessment and life style suggestions were excellent and clearly documented in Mychart. As a new patient, I'm happy to have her as my primary care physician.

I waited 2 years to see Dr. Scheck. We moved here from California in Apr 2023. Our son who is a physician wanted me to have Dr Scheck as my primary doctor. First appointment available was a year away so we cancelled the appointment since I needed to see a doctor sooner for my annual Wellness visit. Our son re-scheduled my appointment and still had to wait for a year. I finally had my first visit on Aug 1, 2025. I had a very good first visit and very happy that she Is now my primary doctor.
