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.

The Best
Dr. Chow has been my pulmonary doctor for nearly 7 years, & I have never had more faith in, & gratitude for, a physician. I have very complex medical issues, & he has always treated me with kindness, consistency, & respect. He has also been a ceaseless advocate for me during hospitalizations, assuring I receive the best treatment & consulting physicians. I cannot thank him, nor recommend him, more highly. Also, the other doctors in the PCCS practice, are amazing & just as trustworthy & hardworking; truly, a great team of docs!

Knowledgeable, personable, Caring
My visit with Dr. Chow went very well. He listened carefully, explained the functional issues, impacts and treatments very well, respected me, and was pleasant throughout the visit. He related on a personal level and made me feel confident in the rationale for his treatment recommendations given my personal situation and preferences. Great doctor!

Excellent. He listens and analyzes your situation. He takes into account your whole body of clues. I highly recommend. The only negative is their telephone system. You can’t do anything without providing your DOB, which I consider a security breach. The telephone staff is adamant and just plain rude.

Dr. Chow is the best!! He takes his time, explains things well and takes the time to make sure he answers your questions. Very compassionate! Office staff could use some work. I usually have to call several times to make appointment or to get an answer to a question.

Dr Chow was very attentive. He explained the results of my tests and answered all my questions. He explained the treatment he was ordering for me so that I completely understood it. I felt like I had been given very good care when I left his office.

Just had an initial visit with Dr. Chow. I honestly can’t say enough good things about him. I was so impressed by his humble, proactive and confident manner. He spent over an hour just talking and listening to me. Together we agreed on a treatment plan for sleep apnea. He’s an outstanding young man.
