Excellent care.
Pain is gone
Very humble and have excellent knowledge of his profession.
This was my first visit to the office and with Dr. Chang. The staff and Dr. Chang were very professional and friendly. My appointment with Dr. Chang went well, too! He has a great demeanor and I appreciated his advice. The only challenge was the wait time,. My appointment was at 3:20 PM, I didn’t get into the room until after 4 PM, and had to wait in the exam room for quite a while, approximately another 20/25 minutes. The exam timeframe was fine, I received all the information I needed and didn’t feel rushed, I was out of the office by 5pm. I had to leave work early to make it on time, so, hopefully, next time they’ll be right on time or close to the exact appointment time!
Dr. Chang was professional and instilled confidence. He didn’t seem rushed when he responded to my questions. I felt he was competent and genuine. I believe a positive relationship is important to providing excellent care and while he was very professional, I think he’s personally available as well. I’m glad to be his patient.
Quiet and very knowledgeable. Dr Chang gave options, timeline. Easy to communicate with. Great doctor.
Great knowledge
Dr. Chang is a true specialist with my best interest at heart. He is not worried about making money off of me. He wants what is best for me. I would advise anyone who needs a podiatrist specialist to use Dr. Chang.
I can ask questions and I understand his answers
