Dr. Cheryl Jean Paradis-Fiedler, MD

Being without OB care for a number of years, I was nervous about being examined after so long. Dr. Paradis put me completely at ease instantly and gave me a solution to the issue I brought to her. She had been called away for a delivery just prior to my appt so was a bit behind but never made me feel rushed. Happy to have found her in my insurance plan!!!

Dr. Paradis was completely interested in my particular problem, offering advice and books for research. She was kind and understanding as well as concerned. I was nervous when I entered her office but felt informed and focused and relieved when I left. Thank you very much Dr. Paradis for taking time with me to give me much needed advice.

Dr. Paradis was the doctor who diagnosed me with Endometriosis after almost 10 years of being gaslit, ignored and treated for anxiety. She helped me get pregnant after 18 months of infertility and has dealt with my millions of questions about my pregnancy. She is truly an amazing doctor and I am looking forward to many years with her!

I’ve been going to Dr Paradis for over almost 2 decades. Very pleasant demeanor and takes the time to listen to you! Highly recommend!

Always so kind and professional, makes sure you know what to expect and gives you warnings when things are about to be done. And always so quick too!

Such a great Doctor, very attentive and informative!

Dr Paradis is absolutely amazing! I have been her patient for 11 years. She is very detailed, patient and understanding. Grateful for all that she does:) Highly recommend her!

Dr Paradis was friendly and kind. Great bedside manner and helped me with my problem.

In for my annual visit. Dr. Paradis, as always is kind and caring and offers useful information as well as friendly conversation. Her exams are thorough and I left feeling well cared for.

Today I had a medical issue and needed an appointment asap. As a new patient the staff was so efficient and caring and got me in same day. No long waits to see Dr. Paradis who took all the time I needed. Can't say enough how great Dr. Paradis and all the staff are.

I love Dr Paradis, she's personable, friendly and a professional. I have been seeing her for over 20 years. My appointments are easy to schedule, wait time is acceptable and the office staff are friendly and efficient.

I am, and will continue to be, a long-time patient of Dr. Paradis. She is honest and informative, and I appreciate her her advice. She has always taken the time to explain conditions, procedures, and options to me, which I appreciate.

If I could rate this place a zero I would. I don’t even know where to start because I am shocked to see how doctors can be so discriminatory against patients. I made an appt 4 weeks ago once I found out I was pregnant. I was recommended to this particular clinic because I am new in Algonquin. I recently moved to the area so I needed a new OB-GYN doctor anyway. I heard good things about Dr. Jessica Flynn so when I made the appt, I specifically asked to see her hopefully. The nurse was accommodating with my work schedule and she was able to put me on her calendar. What happened was less than 4 days before my appt, I get a call late in the afternoon around 7:00 pm to cancel my first appt. I was confused because I thought maybe the doctor had to be out that day or something but I was so hurt and shocked to find out why. Before I had my first appt or ultrasound which I was waiting for and extremely excited to see, their “office policy” didn’t allow me to see any doctors at their clinic. This “office policy” is that none of the doctors will see any patients that are overweight with a BMI over 30. I was extremely crushed by this and left feeling humiliated. How can any doctor especially these doctors who advocate for women’s health in their bios and missions can deny care based on your “size.” By their profession alone just being a doctor, I would think that it would be in their capacity to be supportive of their patients-no matter the “risks.” The risk that they claim is that they can’t provide the maternity care for people with a BMI over 30 at their office. By following this protocol, the clinic is passing judgment on women without reading a medical history or even allowing them to step a foot into their examination rooms. By placing this “cutoff” they are only accepting women with perfect health with uncomplicated pregnancies. In any type of medical specialty, whether it is podiatry or urology, I would hope my doctor would be professionally experienced and educated to evaluate and provide treatment for any type of risks associated with the reason I was going to see them. This is part of the medical profession which I thought doctors were aware of when they took their oaths. By doing this, this says much about the experience and education the doctors at this clinic have because they have only allowed themselves to be exposed to easy and uncomplicated pregnancies. This makes them extremely limited to treat and provide support to their patients. I would want my doctor who is willing go challenge his or her intellect. I really hope they see the errors of their ways and realize how much they are missing out by skipping over a patient since it doesn’t meet their standards. I didn’t want to explain my reasoning and or have to go over my medical history to show why this archaic system of BMI is not an accurate way to determine one’s weight. This shouldn’t even need to brought up at a initial phone call just to make the appt to see the doctor. You can never know someone’s health mentally or physically by just making assumptions. No patients especially if they are expecting should feel ridiculed by these “policies.” I wouldn’t want to see a doctor who has these discriminatory “policies” and I hope this helps the next person who needs to schedule an appt. I debated even to say anything at all but what happened to me, I wouldn’t want to happen to someone else. I felt this need that people should know about this “policy” before they pick up the phone and go through the same humiliation. For what happened to me, I was happy to be pregnant, excited for my appt, took time off from my busy work schedule which got approved to only have to canceled days before. I asked while crying if I could even just come to the first appt since it will hard to find one on short notice and I already took the time off. I knew the nurse wasn’t in any position to do anything but she wouldn’t even allow me to come for my first ultrasound. I didn’t want to finish my first trimester without going to doctor and asking my questions and get prepared for the rest of the pregnancy. Well now I am actually I know how discriminative the doctor would have been if I had came to the appt so could have been an obstacle averted or who knows? All I know is I am blessed to pregnant and I don’t want anyone to feel the same when going to the doctor. Unfortunately for these doctors, this is false advertising and maybe they should put it on their website. As for me, I find it very discriminative behavior which makes me think the next step could possibly be refusing care because of a patient’s skin, race or even sexual orientation. This is how our societies become so disgusting because we allow the flicker to become the flame. Unless we don’t speak up, that’s why I hope any patient of theirs with risks or not, please do your due diligence and homework. I wish I did because apparently I am not alone since others have gone through the same. Ad s patient you should be treated with respect, courtesy and compassion. This is a beautiful time in your life and it shouldn’t be overshadowed by something like this. Embrace your pregnancy!

Dr. Paradis had answered all my questions. She keeps me informed on my conditions in question. She had a wonderful bedside manner. She even listened to what I had to say. Dr Paradis also in the past did an E.A on me and it went as we hoped it would go by 100%. She is a new Dr. to me and is a wonderful Dr. She is a keeper, I would not trade her for anyone, except her nurse Linda.

She is one of the most understanding Dr. I have ever been to. She has sat in the exam room with me AFTER the exam and just talked with me and always has advice if asked, she is very gental and kind. The Best!!

My experience with this doctor is horrible. She is all smiley and nice, but she was late to my appointment (I had to wait 50 min in the room), she misdiagnosed me, and at the end of the day no one even appologized that I took a course of antibiotics and was not suppose to. It seems that they DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR PATIENTS! I am leaving her because I care about my health. By the way, her nurses are so unprofessional!!!

Dr. Cheryl is a great listener .. She is very gentle and kind. Her bedside manner is wonderful... I have sent many people to her and they love her also ... I would highly recomnd. her for ur care .
