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 of the Best!!!
Dr. Wang was very thorough with explaining my surgery on my internal carotid aneurysm clipping. He did an amazing job on my surgery. I would highly recommend him. He was my second opinion, the first provider blew off my aneurysm as nothing to be concerned about. Dr. Wang took my aneurysm seriously and discovered there was actually a weak spot in the aneurysm which could have ruptured at anytime! Dr. Wang saved my life! Thanks to him and his staff for doing such an amazing job and listening to my concerns! Don't let Dr. Wang be your second opinion, go to him first!

Our daughter had an attack Arterioveinious Malformation aka as AVM. Dr. Wang saved her life that night! The following week Dr. Wang then had to remove the AVM. He saved her life again!!! I’m writing this exactly 3 months to the day this all started. My wife and I have the utmost respect for Dr. Wang. He truly CARES!!! Dr . Wang was professional respectful of us and never misled us about anything including expectations and outcomes. The benchmark from the beginning was 90days after the second surgery. She is now in the 90% plus range recovery !!! Dr. Wang is the most thorough, detailed professional you will ever meet. Thank you Dr. Wang from the bottom of our hearts!!!The Prime’s Family

Dr. Wang saved my husband's life when he had a ruptured brain aneurysm. My husband was in the ICU for 20 days. Dr. Wang was very good explaining all of the procedures that he performed so that the family could understand.

Saved me, my quality of life
I came under Dr Wang's care upon being transported to Tulane neurosurgery, unconscious with a subdural hematoma. He and his surgical team stopped the bleed and relieved the hematoma before any life-threatening developments continued. I met him post-surgery, during ICU recovery and a subsequent post-op exam. I am grateful for his skills, professional, knowledgeable and friendly manner and genuine care. I consider myself blessed and lucky to have come under his care in this emergency.

Dr. Wang saved my mother’s life. Nothing can top this fact! The Saturday after Thanksgiving (2021), Dr. Wang performed a miracle surgery. My mother was on the verge of paralysis (hip down), because of a tumor on her spine. Because of Dr. Wang’s sense of urgency and explanation of analysis, my mother and I trusted him in our most critical moment. He called in his team, and proceeded to do what other doctors said she was too weak to receive. On the night we met Dr. Wang, my mother couldn’t stand or step. As a result, Dr. Wang’s surgery has her walking, mobile, and now with a new medical plan towards recovery. Dr. Wang became my mother’s second chance. Before and during surgery, his confidence gave my faith a Superman cape! Dr. Wang and his team saved my mom’s life, and it is a honor to do a review for someone who was born for this… our miracle doctor, Dr. Wang. *He has a Diamond Rating in our opinion and will forever be highly recommend. He’s professional and personable.

I brought my dad to the ED due to an unruptured brain aneurysm. Dr. Wang and his team took care of my dad's case right away informing and educating us of all the diagnostic testing/ procedures needed. The day before surgery Dr. Wang explained to us in great detail with all the images he had available of my dad's aneurysm the best way to approach treatment surgically, answered all of our questions showing extensive knowledge and care. He definitely made himself available to us for any concern at any time of day prior and after surgery. He would personally check on my dad every day to assess him and just ask him how he was. I am completely happy that Dr. Wang took care of my dad for he is a very passionate dedicated doctor who truly dedicates to care for his patients in all aspects. I have to say I am forever grateful to Dr. Wang!

Dr. Wang saved my family. My daughter had just had her son. Ten days after having him she lost her eyesight and was in the hospital having brain surgery. Dr. Wang was her surgeon. He did an absolute amazing job. He explained everything that would happen before, during and after. It’s been 5-6 month since her surgery. He is her only doctor who has personally called to see how she is feeling even months after. If you want a doctor that actually cares about his patients, then Dr. Wang should be your choice.

Dr Wang professional & intensively knowledgeable; Genuinely maintains personal relationship family & patient! "Dr Wang" and his team @ Tulane replaced my husbands left side skull after infection caused it to be removed; he personally kept me informed before, during and after surgery explaining detail by detail the procedure in full. What Doctor do you know returns his own phone calls? We were so blessed he accepted us as a patient He works at both East Jefferson & Tulane. He has a wonderful staff as well. Most Doctors today forget why they studied medicine & took an oath ; Dr Wang is one of the few I've met in a long time that aren't just their for the money but to save a life! We are forever grateful
