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 surgery with Dr. Huang and the following recovery is and was one of the worst experiences of my life. I did not recover as quickly as anticipated but instead of working with me through my recovery, Dr. Huang told me to wait two months to call him. Meanwhile my painful recovery has continued. He provided little to no support or advice for my recovery and seemed confident that what he did provide was adequate. Their billing office was inflexible and unfriendly. They were not willing to work with me at all in regards to paying off my bill. I understand that organizations create rules to protect themselves against bad debt, but in every other organization I've worked with, setting up a payment plan is enough to avoid finance charges on the balance of the bill. I understand that this may be the standard for medical practices but that doesn't mean it isn't amoral and reprehensible. With every other provider I've worked with, a show of good faith has be returned in kind.

I need to let people know that the surgery went very well. Dr Huang did a great job and I'm very pleased with the results. My complaint was only about the lack of communication between the office staff and I prior to the surgery.

Great surgery results – Jan 16, 2021

Staff was respectful to a private condition, treated with utmost respect and some humor. Dr. Huang was very personable, proffesional and knowledgeable. I felt he had an interest to deliver top quality services to resolve my condition. All went according to his consultation and after surgery directions for a succesful result. I am in my mid 60s and this was my first ever surgery, staff and Dr. Huang calmed my fears (plenty) and delivered.

To clear up some of the negative reviews. I have seen Dr Huang twice for different surgical procedures. He is the most compassionate and caring doctor a patient could ask for. He is thorough and explains things clearly. He doesn’t rush into surgery unless it is absolutely necessary. His office staff and surgical team are all top notch individuals. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend him to friends and family and anyone looking for an honest, kind and straightforward surgeon.

The front desk woman is the rudest person that I have ever met. Unable to get an appointment in a timely manner in spite of the severity of my medical symptoms. Do NOT recommend this office.

I had an appointment at 10:15 but was called the day before and asked if I could come in at 9:45. I arrived at 9:30, completed all the paperwork and then waited.......finally at 11:00 I gave up. I approached the desk and asked why my appt was rescheduled 30 minutes early and now I had been here for 1hr 30 min. She had no good reasons so I left. Will not be going back to this office.
