I've long had borderline high total cholesterol. But I refuse to take a stating. All my bother markers are good. Previous doctors have tried to prescribe a statin anyway because thats what "guidelines" dictated. Dr. Chanez actually noted how good my other markers are and did not try to prescribe a statin. We are just watching and monitoring together.
My story with Dr. Chanez began many years ago. Even before he became a MDVIP-affiliated doctor, he was to me a VIP. I knew when I called, I would be able to see him without a long wait. He displayed then the same professionalism, knowledge, caring, and determination to diagnose any medical issue I might have had.
I am happy to say my story with Dr. Chanez continues today and shall… See more
For me, I would say that most effective relationships aren’t in a singular interaction but rather a series of interactions that set the tone for a long term, effective relationship that is beneficial. I have certainly had singular moments with Dr. Chanez (example: Hep C diagnosis) that I was thankful to have Dr Chanez’s insights but I am most appreciative of the frequent interactions we have… See more
After enjoying several days in Switzerland, health became an issue. Suddenly the vacation was over and a week stay in the Interlaken Hospital started. What started as asthma moved to pneumonia and heart issues. We trusted the Swiss doctors but contacting Dr Chanez was a terrific comfort. The ability to have a trusted “friend” to share the burden with was wonderful.
That friend/ doctor… See more
I take a list of questions each time I meet with my Doctor James Chanez. He has an ability to quickly understand my long list of concerns and issues and provide very substance solutions/recommendations. I find immediate stress reduction, relief & motivation in a very short timeframe when meeting with him!
I'm very pleased to have received him as my doctor.
Since becoming MDVIP Dr. Chanez and his staff are very responsive to our needs. Dr. Chanez and Pam are always there to take our calls even during the evenings and weekends! This is the way doctors used to treat their patients and we sincerely appreciate it when we need help dealing with health related issues.
I had purchased my ticket to a movie and as I pulled open the door to the theater it was a large light aluminum door and I was expecting a heavy door to match its size. The door knocked me in the head and I staggered backwards.
I was not about to waste that ticket so I went in to the theater but couldn’t concentrate because I feared I had a concussion. So I got up and called Dr Chanez… See more
Dr. James Chanez excels in knowledge, professionalism, kindness, and enthusiasm. I have been his patient for 15 years, and it is comforting to know that I can always count on him, and his great office staff as well. He listens! When he had questions about an issue I was experiencing, he referred me to a specialist and got me in quickly to see him. He’s the best and it’s a privilege to be his… See more
Having been with our previous Doctor thru MDVIP for several years we felt fortunate to be able to continue with the same consideration, strong Doctor relationship and most importantly having time with dr Chanez to discuss misc concerns, things to do to minimize problems and better things to do to prolong a more healthy life and a more healthy way to live. And with a significant smaller… See more
