I need more time with this person to be able to comment. Need to know how one returns calls, provides appropriate referrals, pain management etc.

March 04, 2013

Dr. Wang was friendly, courteous, and very professional, as always. I have total trust in her as a physician.

February 19, 2013

I EXPERIENCED DR. WANG BEFORE AND THAT IS WHY I RETURNED TO HER SERVICE. HER PROFESSIONAL/BEDSIDE MANNER ASSURES YOU OF HER EFFICIENCY. NO DOUBT, SHE IS THE BEST DR. I HAVE SEEN IN A LONG TIME. I AM A DIABETIC OF 38 YEARS - AND THAT SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT DR. WANG. THANK YOU

February 04, 2013

Dr. Wang had no bed side manner. I felt Like I was an inconvience in her day and that my problem wasn't that big of a deal.

January 29, 2013

Dr. Wang was great but I felt like the appointment was a little rushed.

January 21, 2013

Dr Wang service was beyond my expectations

January 09, 2013

I do not yet have a diagnosis, so this rating may be a bit unfair. Care was direct and to the point. There is a possibility--which was appropriately told to me--that the diagnosis may not be a good one. There was little effort to explore whether this might be disturbing to me or to be supportive in case it were. As the possibility is remote, or so I understand it, this may be appropriate. But it is fair to describe the interaction as quite business-like but not "touchy-feely".

January 07, 2013

I would definitely reccomend Dr. Wang to others. I felt very good about my appointments and surgery.

December 17, 2012

Very brief. Did not ask if I had questions. Did not allow me time to ask questions. Not friendly. Not personable.

October 17, 2012

I just had a surgery done by Doctor Angela Wang and i think she did a fantastic Job. after two weeks my hand is fully functional and healing extremely fast. i would recommend Doctor Wand and Orthopedic center anytime .

October 16, 2012

I felt like the Dr. was rushed and not very interested. She was not that friendly either and this was a 3 year old she was dealing with!

October 09, 2012

Good experience

September 24, 2012

Doctor gave some explanations, but not a lot. Was in a big hurry!

August 28, 2012

dr. wang was great

August 27, 2012

the doctor spent a total of 5 minutes ,disregarding any of my questions and concern,looking like I was wasting her time and bothering her with my presence

August 22, 2012

as a pt you would like to know that your care provider can give you 2 seconds to look you in the eye and actually acknowledge you during an introduction, not shake your hand all the while looking at your record in her hand; not personable at all

August 14, 2012

Dr Wang based her diagnosis on the examination by the resident and failed to address the primary cause of my concern and pain. She recommended a brace for my thumb that did not address my wrist pain/swelling and that actually exacerbated the problem. She did not spend anytime discussing my symptoms or the very specific events that produced them, instead assuming that this was simply an age-related arthritic condition. She was abrupt, uncaring, and dismissive. I would never willingly see her again or recommend her to another patient.

August 13, 2012

She told me that there was no treatment other than surgery without looking at my hand or at the x-rays (at least within my presence.) I had to ask her to actually look at it, and I felt dismissed.

August 13, 2012

Dr Wang was great

August 06, 2012

The doctors were very competent, friendly, and caring. I had a very positive experience.

July 30, 2012

The best care I have ever had in a medical facility.

July 24, 2012

Good job was done by all.

May 17, 2012

When I got the referral to see Dr Wang I was advised that she is really good in what she does, witch is thrue , but she is very short with patient,

April 18, 2012

All is well. I enjoy this clinic.

April 04, 2012

When asking how she would be able to tell him my injury was healed she replied with, Oh, it will heal. Since it took an MRI to find the injury, my trust in, Oh, it will heal, is not to high.

March 07, 2012

just felt a little uncomfortable asking questions provider seemed rushed but she had been running a little behind before she saw me

February 23, 2012

Intelligent, efficient without hurry, useful discussion and information, sense of humor

February 10, 2012

When my wife asked whether the X-rays looked worse than the break actually was, the Dr said "that's why you aren't an orthopedic surgeon" in a VERY insulting tone and didn't explain ANTHING else about our situation other than what he planned to do and refused to discuss the course of action that we were asking about.

January 26, 2012

After surgery I felt great, blood flow in left arm and hand was evident. I expected the wounds to delay healing as a diabetic but by 3 weeks I was almost back to normal. I certainly would recommend Dr. Wang to others. She took time to explain the change in my left arm, wrist, and hand, and I felt assured all will be well in time.

January 25, 2012

i'm talking about the doctor. the asst was excellent

January 19, 2012

good

January 05, 2012

Didn't feel this doctor took my desire to get back into activity ASAP as serious as if it would have been a University Athlete.
