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.

My Father saw Dr Ling in Nov 2019 for a coronary angiogram in the cath lab. My dad has low kidney function .Dr Ling used less contrast dye to lessen the strain on the kidneys & took the time to explain everything to both myself & my father. We both left feeling very informed & not rushed. Everyone there was very professional & did a great job . Top Notch Professional Cardiologist Highly recommended!

I saw Dr. Ling yesterday 6/1/18 my yearly routine visit. Dr Ling is everything you want & should want in a Dr. Professional, Caring, Takes his times, Listens, Not an Alarmist, Honest telling it like it is, Tells you what you should do & offers his opinion when needed. When Nurses who works with a Dr say he especially a good Dr, one should listen. I did & learned myself.

This is a follow up to my last criticism of Dr Ling. Aside from his violation of my patient rights. After getting all the incorrect information by obtaining my records unlawfully. His evaluations were wrong. I went to another interventional cardiologist who got the diagnosis right , repaired the blockage and implanted a stent.
