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.

I feel like most of my medical history except test results was disregarded. As a person who also has had health anxiety for years, she is not a doctor I will be going back to. She does not fully explain conditions or treatments. While this may not be fully her fault because English is not her first language, for me and other people with any anxiety and questions regarding your condition, I would not recommend.

Communication Issies
Dr. Zhang communicates poorly, often being lecturing, critical, and referring to her own lifestyle as an example (which is not relevant to the lifestyle of the older patient). This is unnecessary.

Quickly and accurately diagnosed unusual illness
I had a non symmetrical arthritic like condition in one foot. After an efficient but thorough examination Dr. Zhang diagnosed by condition as Reactive Arthritis, a diagnosis later confirmed by others. With the steroids she prescribed I felt better almost immediately.

My experience has always been very good. She is caring and compassionate, and very attentive when I saw her in a great deal of stress. Given that English is not her first language, in my experience she communicates effectively. She frequently has a resident doctor with her, as this is part of their training and part of her responsibility as a physician leading the next generation. Her staff is sometimes abrupt, could use a little bedside manner....

I am not entirely sure that Dr. Zhang understands English as well as she may read or write it. There is always a medical student with her - and while this could be a teaching technique - giving them a chance to practice explaining things - after 2 visits I think there's something else going on. I didn't have any trouble understanding her, and I have no problem with people whose 1st language isn't the same as mine. But I certainly did not feel heard. She seems not to believe in seronegative inflammatory diseases and puts most, if not all, of the emphasis on blood tests. There's a lot of my history that I believe did not get through at all. Not going back.

Rude. I have fibromyalgia but because of my young age she didn’t take me seriously. She said I needed to “manage my anxiety” and when I emphasized an issue with my shoulders she brushed it off and said I shouldn’t always complain about my pain—saying that I needed to think positively. She prescribed me a useless medication and when I asked if I could pick it up immediately she said I kept asking stupid questions because I was anxious when she likely prescribes this med multiple times a day
