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.

Just Twrrible
1 star is to much for this man. He had the audacity to show up an hour and a half late to my appointment, so I had to cancel other appointments that I had for the day. He then was cutting me off when trying to talk, severely lacks empathy, terrible bedside manner, and completely disregarded my concerns. Was trying to push procedures and such that were not needed. There was zero level or patient centered care and just wanted to make decisions for me. I would not send my worst enemy to this man!

I had a very positive appointment with Dr. Soong on Zoom. He was very friendly and knowledgeable, used a model to help prepare me for the procedure that he will do, and answered all of our questions. And I loved being able to use Zoom rather than having to go into the office at this time!

Dr. Soong is very competent. I like how he treats you with respect. His friendly personality puts you at ease. The long wait time is the only real negative I have.

I had a great experience with Dr Soong. I would describe him and compassionate, funny, caring, knowledgeable, he has an ability to put the patient at ease. I did not feel rushed on the Pre procudure consult and gave me the option of having sedation or not. He also talked me thru the procedure. Highly recommend. Staff was excellent as well.

I have been seeing Dr. Soong for almost 2 years in the Alpharetta Office and have had the best experiences with him out of the 3 doctors at that practice I've seen in his absence. When I have an issue and need to be seen I can call the office and he has his office schedule me and I go to whatever office he's at.

I was treated by Dr. Soong 9/14/17, and found him to be very compassionate, empathetic, with a great bedside manner. Would highly recommend him to anyone in need of an epidural.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Soong?
In my opinion Dr Soong is arrogant, rude, lacking in empathy and devoid of any bedside manner whatsoever. Anyone who finds themselves in the unfortunate situation of being his patient should do anything they can to seek treatment from another other doctor. It would be near impossible to end up in worse hands. The level of compassion he provides is beneath that of a fast food drive up window's. He rushed patients out yet has long wait times and zero respect for patients inconvenience
