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.

Takes the time to listen
Dr. Wai is a very caring and attentive doctor. Even though she has a very busy schedule she has always taken the time to really listen and offer suggestions to improve my overall health naturally. I have gone to Dr. Wai for many years and even though I have moved farther away from her office I will continue to drive the extra miles to continue to be seen and heard by such a wonderful doctor.

I continue to have trouble with this doctor regarding my medications. I ran out of my medication after I had requested a refill some weeks before. The pharmacy called my saying that they had not heard from Dr. Wai. I called Dr. Wai's office and found out that she had changed the way my medication would be prescribed but she did not inform me, and she did not call the pharmacy to inform them of the change or why she would not refill the prescription. Dr. Wai has more than once put my life in danger by her negligence. I would not recommend her to anyone.

She abrasive in her approach but I felt she knew her stuff. She accurately diagnosed me with hypo-thyroid at my first appointment with her. She was spot on.

I doubt if her knowledge base is updated. She had delayed diagnosis and treatment of my parent, who had been an easy and obedient patient for hers for many years. However, when my parent became ill, Dr. Wei's attitude of not willing to understand or to treat at the time when she was being counted on, was a huge concern.

Dr. Wai Wai was my PCP for the past 6 years. Dr. Wai has always been very proactive with my health, encouraging me to deal with my health more holistically: lose weight, get out and exercise, enjoy family time, don't work too many hours. Dr. Wai takes the time to explain the problems she sees, as well as solutions to them to improve my health. She is also a very positive person, and very aware of my family, asking after my wife's and daughter's health. I could not be happier with a PCP.
