Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Do not go to this doctor
This doctor has no compassion at all. He made us wait for him inside the clinic for a long period of time. When he finally came he didnt even look or acknowledge. He sat down and just show what is in the xray and said that a surgery needs to be done, all while looking and typing on the computer, not even looking at me! The surgery cant be done right away so l asked what to do with the pain and he coldly said just bear it until the surgery can be performed. That's it! You feel physical pain coming to the clinic but you will come out feeling even worse. This doctor will make you wait without apologizing, will not look at you while he talks, no compassion and is cold. If you wanna feel better, dont go to this person.

Dr. Tang saw me briefly, wanted to leave the minute he entered the room. He was inpatient with me when I tried to ask him questions, and hardly had any eye contacts with me.

My wife has a nearly 4 hour surgery with him after waiting in pre-op for 3 1/2 hours. When I asked him how things went his reply..."she broke her ankle, pins & screws" and walked away. Nothing else as far as recovery, zero. No wonder people despise the medical business.

Dr. Tang has the bedside manner that is quite poor. Dr. Tang answered my questions in circles never really answering my questions. On two occasions he failed to review my rays and in my presence nor did he open my medical file and make notations. I am very displeased with my surgery and him as my doctor. I would refer any one to him friend or enemy. My hand now looks as if it belongs to someone else and I am in constant discomfort and pain.

Does not answer questions, wont look you in your eye. I feel very unsatisfied with his plan of treatment for the broken bones in my feet. I have a displaced bone and his words were it will heal eventually. If you get arthritis later on we can fuse the bones. When i ask questions he wont directly address them and just sticks to "it will eventually heal". DO NOT RECOMMEND him! I wish i had other options. I also had to wait TWO hours after my appointment time before he came into the room
