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.

Visited for recurring rash. Dr. Sung was understanding and helpful with recommendations and prescriptions to help.

Through and very nice
I took a fall and was afraid I had broken my ribs. Dr son was so thorough gave me lots of information. Lots of options I could use for the pain. She Took a lot of time to speak with me, and I was in and out of there relatively fast, but did not feel rushed at all & had good care.

My experience
I always go to this urgent car when I’m really sick. Dr. Sung takes the time to hear me out and I don’t feel like she’s in a rush to get me out of the office. I would definitely recommend Dr. Sung to my entire family. If I can have her as my primary care physician, I would. Dr. Sung and the nurses were very nice, attentive, and very helpful with all my questions.

The worst provider she sends you with no meds so that your body can try to fight a cold or virus on your own. Can’t diagnose right if you’re in there for a cold asthma symptoms she treats you for cardiac and respiratory issues. Second time I seen her next I will refuse her service.
