I'n very happy. No problem

March 12, 2013

My experiences with Dr. Fang have always been good. He takes time to listen and discuss any problems. He seems genuinely interested in the individual patient.

March 11, 2013

The visit with Dr. Fang was great! I had seen other doctors before and the time I was with Dr. Fang in that single visit was longer than all of my other GI specialist appointments combined. I was very pleased with all that happened

Everything was good especially Dr Fang

April 25, 2012

very accomodating

March 21, 2012

After waiting so long to get in, I was a little dissapointed that I still had to go through more tests before I find out anything that can be done. I'm just so tired of dealing with the Gastroparesis & I want to get it under control so I can get my life back!

Dr Fang is frustrated with my condition because he doesn't know what else to try. I have to see him because he is the only doctor in Utah that is knowledgeable about the gastric stimulator i have.

I did see Dr. Fang for a minute but I felt like it was not enough. No one had my records from my previous time with him. I was looking for options, ideas, and knowledge about my disease. Do I have any options - besides surgery? I felt liked I deserved more. I am not sure if there is anywhere else in Salt Lake to get help with Achalasia. I am discouraged about getting help.
