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.

Concerns Over Hasty Medical Recommendations
Had a concerning experience with Dr. Thomas Wang regarding his evaluation process and patient interaction. When I brought previous medical reports about my gallbladder polyps, he assessed them from a distance without a closer review and recommended gallbladder removal without much explanation. His detached demeanor made me feel that my concerns weren’t fully considered.While Dr. Wang may have extensive experience, I believe a more thorough evaluation is necessary before making such significant decisions. Seeking a second opinion, another physician performed an ultrasound and determined the polyps weren't large enough to require removal. This highlighted the importance of careful assessment and patient-centered communication.Patients facing major surgery should seek comprehensive evaluations and explore all options. A doctor’s expertise matters, but addressing a patient’s concerns with care and patience is equally important.

'Angry Gallbladder'
Dr. Wang was the surgeon on call for my unexpected gallbladder surgery. He was very thorough with his explanation as to why my 'Angry Gallbladder' needed to be removed before it ruptured. He is knowledgeable, patient when answering my questions, and very professional. He took time to explain all things to me. He makes you feel comfortable. When I went to my follow up post surgery appointment at his office, I couldn't have been treated any better. His staff is awesome. I would highly recommend him.

Exceptional Care and Skill – Highly Recommend Dr.
Dr. Wang did an outstanding job with my gallbladder removal surgery. From the initial consultation to the post-op care, he was professional, thorough, and made me feel at ease throughout the entire process. The surgery went smoothly, and I experienced minimal discomfort during recovery. I’m incredibly grateful for his expertise and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of similar care.

Could careless about your recovery
I had my gallbladder removed and this whole process was a red flag. First he was late to surgery, second they lied to me about the anesthesia. Third, I felt he rushed through my surgery. They rescheduled my post op follow up appointment , I’ve been in more pain since after the surgery. They took a blood test at my last appointment and still haven’t reached out to me. It’s been 3 days. They said they would inform me on a Monday that has not happened. They keep taking my blood and no one can tell me my results. This whole process has been dealt with nonchalant people. Before going into surgery all the nurses were playing entirely too much. Speaking very inappropriately about this doctor as well as I waited to get taken back for anesthesia. I’m starting to feel it was all about the money at the end of the day. It’s been about a month since my surgery and I’M STILL IN PAIN! They practically could care less. And it’s showing. What a rushed unprofessional process!!

Great Experience
Welcoming office space, kind and helpful staff, and timely appointments! Dr Wang thoroughly answered my questions and had a great sense of humor when the anesthesia took over! My incision healed nicely and when I was concerned the first few days, the office staff responded promptly my emails and assured me it was normal.
