Biography
Philosophy of care
My philosophy of care centers on empowering my patients through education and active participation in their health journey. I believe that well-informed patients make better decisions that align with their personal health goals, be it returning to activities of daily living or sports.
Why Dr. Cheema went into medicine
I believe that a fulfilling life is best lived in service of others, and I have always had a keen interest in the sciences. Medicine is an elegant amalgamation of both.

Following a healthy plant-based diet, fostering a strong social support network, and finding healthy ways to manage stress are powerful techniques to improve your health, regardless of the treatment you choose.
