where do I began with my terrible experience I had yesterday with Dr. Zhang. One, she never remembers any information from your last visit. Two, she tries to put you a on prescription pill for everything. even when you tell her no. three, she tells me she didn't have any blood sugar readings since [...] even tho I sent them in two months ago to the nurse. four, she was very combative yesterday and not helpful. she asked me what can I do meaning me to get my [...] under control. I thought that was the whole point of going to the doctor. most importantly she was not helpful and had me under stress after leaving her office. I will never go back to her as long as I can help it. I even called into the office after my appointment to request a new doctor. horrible experience yesterday.
08/15/20
Dr. Zhang is always friendly, communicative, has reviewed file before entering exam room, knows who her patients are and their concerns and is prepared to discuss any items that come up during course of visit. She just exudes concern and caring for her patient. she takes the time to understand her patient thoroughly and what motivates their behavior. Under her care, my medical problems have improved steadily.
