I would be shocked to find any doctor or person with the amount of empathy, compassion, listening skills, knowledge, and any other positive trait one can imagine. Dr. Ren is AWESOME! You’re wasting time attempting to find a better care giver. She is ridiculously smart, patient, and kind. I’ve met hundreds of doctors and none compare!

As a nurse I have worked with Dr REN in the hospital and was impressed with her knowledge and the care she provided to our patients. When she opened a private practice I was happy to have her care for my family. I highly recommend Dr. REN.

Dr. Ren is an amazing physician. Not only have I worked with her in the past and know how caring compassionate and thorough that she is. Working in health care I must first say I am reluctant to see doctors. But she makes you feel comfortable. She is available 24/7 and when I say she has changed my life it is far from a understatement. She sits down and gets your full history so she can fully understand your case. No other PCP does this. She thinks outside the box and catches things PCPs can’t

I worked with Dr Ren for several years in the hospital. Still to this day I can honestly say she is the best physician we have had on staff! She has an excellent bedside manner and can put patients and families at ease. I have never seen a more compassionate non judgmental person and a great educator for the nurses. The staff still shares stories about this amazing physician. She has my utmost respect!

Dr. Ren is as kind and compassionate physician as you could hope to find. She has a down to earth attitude that puts patients at ease talking about any subject imaginable. She is personal in her interactions and detail oriented when it comes to documenting patient care. I have never met a doctor like her and can't recommend her highly enough.
