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.

Dr Chang is professional but his table side manner is comforting

After dealing with my pain and trying to find relief, I found Dr. James Chang. He was very attentive and he makes you feel very comfortable. He has been a great doctor and the staff is very friendly. The wait time is never long which is great and they have appointments after work. So if you are looking for a doctor that cares and will listen to you to help treat your pain then look no further then Dr. J. Chang's office.

With an injury to my L5S1 disc, Dr. Chang has been treating me for close 4 years now. I can't stress how caring Dr. Chang has been in his treatments. My injury has continued to progressively get worse over time bit with his constant attention to my situation, he has kept me in business, working as much as possible with as little pain as possible. I highly recommend him for anyone who is battling physical pain.

As I entered Dr. Chang's office, I was impressed by the very efficient, friendly and very professional staff. I presented at my first visit with two extremely swollen knees, elephant size. The pain was unbearable. I was facing a major surgery. Instead, Dr. James Chang was able to completely change that through his advanced medicinal tactics, proper medication and I am now close to pain-free. He has excellent bedside manners, extremely knowledgeable and concerned. I highly recommend him to all.

From My initial visit to today, Dr. Chang listens to your reason for the visit. Dr. Chang will send you to physical therapy after He sends you for x-rays and MRI if neccesary. If Your sincere about Pain Management, Give 100% of yourself to compliment Dr. Chang's Diagnosis. You will become more fluid and flexable, the discomfort will become so much more manageable.

Dr. Chang does everything he can to help relieve my pain. He asks plenty of questions and allows you as much time needed to explain your issues. He is very caring and such a friendly doctor. He has helped me so much and still continues to. I couldn't ask for anyone better.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Chang?
His level of empathy for your pain is non-existent, and his ego is out of control. I tried discussing with him his lack of experience in actually feeling pain, suggesting that he doesn't truly understand pain, because he doesn't suffer from chronic pain. What happened when I engaged him on an intellectual level, of which I am perfectly capable, he became hostile, and dismissive. He is arrogant, and should be ashamed at his lack of empathy, and humility. The hair tangle art on display says it all
