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.

Well we had a very nice plan of action to get surgery. Afterwards the ball was absolutely dropped. We NEVER never heard from the staff that was supposed to make arrangements with the hospital. We even called our insurance company and checked up to see if they had called. The staff never even called our insurance company. This is a joke of a team! For someone in pain this doctor and his staff were negligent.

Dr. Ching spent a lot of time with me explaining in easy terms a very complicated medical condition which gave me a much better understanding of my situation. I asked many questions and he answered them all just as clearly. And he has a great bed side manner, he's funny.

Dr. Ching was patient and very specific. He did not appear to be rushed. I could explain my issues and concerns with him without interruption. This was my first visit with him and I am comfortable with his skill set for my surgical procedure to follow. Dr. Ching did not "sugar coat" post operation recovery and informed me that "it" would be painful for approximately one week after with full recovery in about four weeks. Feeling relieved and hopeful. Stay tuned as I will update this review.
