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.

This doctor gave an incorrect diagnosis. I was shocked to hear her Terrible diagnosis. Fortunately tests did not show what she mentioned what I had . She can put you through lot of tension and stress. Stay really away

TL;DR - STAY FAR AWAY 1. She jumped to a dangerously wrong and COMPLETELY unsupported misdiagnosis -- literally before she even walked in the exam room, talked to me, or evaluated me. Told me that I "didn't have pneumonia" - even though I had literally just gotten out of the ER for pneumonia, been treated in the ER with IV antibiotics for pneumonia and had a clear improvement from them, had chest xrays showing I had pneumonia, etc. 2. She COMPLETELY mis-dosed me - gave me only ~66% of the FDA-approved dose of antibiotics for pneumonia - even though I am at least partially immunocompromised. Her response when I asked about her giving me a 3x/day antibiotic only 2x/day: "I generally give augmentin 500 twice a day. The only times it has not worked for me is due to antibiotic resistance, not due to underdosing. The higher dosages or increased frequency cause too much diarrhea." So she'd rather I die of pneumonia while immunocompromised by not following standard of care? STAY FAR AWAY

Dr. Huang correctly diagnosed a cough which I have had for more than 20 years, after it had been mis-diagnosed by multiple other doctors, including other pulmonologists. She has been very easy to communicate with, very patient and very helpful.

Do not like giving a poor review but Judy Huang endangered my health by not listening, not carefully reviewing my history, making a serious and wrong diagnosis w/out data and not following established SOC. After being in her care I had an emergency that was according to my new doctor was completely avoidable. Her diagnostic approach was random and her interpretation of data led her to make hasty conclusions with negative impact, distress and pain to me and my family. Pls consider help elsewhere.

Dr. Huang is very personable and caring. She takes the time to get to the bottom of health issues. She actually listens and follows through coordinating with other specialists. Highly recommend!
