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.

Wonderful surgeon!
Dr wang repaired my fractured left elbow when other surgeons couldn’t. My injury happened 10 years ago yesterday. I was thinking how fortunate I was, to have this gifted surgeon repair my dominant arm. I’ve had very little discomfort over the years. Thanks to him, I can still work as a home care nurse, care for my grandchildren and many other things. Thank you Dr. wang!

The doctor was very good at explaining everything in detail. It’s unfortunate that the lady setting up the appointment is terrible. I would love to see him more often for my hand issues but I I could do without the attitude. It would be nice if we could make appointment with him but I know that’s not the way it works. I give doctor 5 stars and appointment schedule none.

Excellent experience! Dr. Wang spent much time explaining options, diagraming the situation. It was a comfortable discussion. I will recommend him without reservation.

Had amazing experience with Dr. Wang and his staff. Every time I go its a quick and painless process, they explain everything and they're wonderful. I was involved in a serious motorcycle accident and had a highly comminuted distal radius fracture. He got me into surgery asap after being transferred from another doctors care that couldn't perform the reconstructive surgery. Wasted no time in diagnosing everything and took very good care of me. Couldn't have asked for a better hand surgeon!
