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.

Amazing dr.!! She is straight to the point, and give great advise on how to improve my health! ??

Horrible Dr
This woman has no bed side manor. Very rude. Over talks you. Does not listen. I was in horrible pain. Had to get a chiropractor to order an MRI for me. Results are I have a bulged disc in my spine. According to Dr Kong , there was nothing wrong with me. I would not suggest this Dr to anyone.

Horribly rude, dismissive, aggressive, and agitated about my relevant concerns. Made 3 random “diagnoses” that were basis free without any necessary testing and completely abandoned her thought process and previous diagnosis when I expressed my skepticism due to health history. Said to me “why are you even here, I don’t know what you’re wanting from me” without even doing a simple assessment of my swollen lymph nodes which were my main concern that was causing horrible pain. She made me cry and rolled her eyes while reluctantly handing me a tissue. Disgrace of a doctor. It’s concerning that the treats patients or even speaks to patients at all. She genuinely shouldn’t be licensed to practice.

My 87 father served this country for 23 years, and this MEAN UNPROFESSIONAL foreign born “doctor” has no idea what his service means. It took one month to book an appointment. I took time off from teaching my classes to drive 7 hours from Houston to help him bathe and get to his appointment today. This woman refused to even talk to my father after he waited for almost 3 hours. He had to sit in his own tribe because nobody helped him. Then, she refused to see him, even after I left the office

Good doctor, good bedside manner, little hard to understand due to accent but just ask her to speak slowly. Thorough and listens. Staff is friendly and helpful too. Go see Dr Rita Kong.
