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.

Dr. Chong practically pulled my eyes out the socket and caused a lot of pain. He essential looked like he was damaging the retina and wouldn't listen when I told him to stop. His bedside manner is horrible and the wait times are ridiculously long, especially for private practice. I would not suggest you or anyone see him.

Dr Chong was very friendly, quick and professional. He was patient and engaging with my 3 year old, and went the extra mile finding another doctor for us for further consultations.

He was the worst eye doctor my son (7 years old) visited. He was very mean by yelling at my son not to touch anything. From beginning to end, he was just very not friendly at all. I do not know he had a bad day or something, but, treating his patients, especially for kids, the way he did, I almost screamed at his face but did not, since my son was there. This doctor should never call himself a pediatric ophthalmologist. I would definitely not recommend this doctor.
