    He is a good doctor with a brilliant mind. He actually read an article about a study for an alternative treatment I had found instead of dismissing it. He even gave me an idea of rotating two protocols.

    He was very reassuring

    Dr Fang really went above and beyond for me for this visit. He spent over an hour with my husband and I discussing my case at length. He also spent time reviewing my previous notes and tests and even presented my case at the gut conference prior to this visit. He also communicated well with the GI Dr that referred me to him. I am really greatful for the time he spent to try and figure out a plan for me. And I will say again how much I appreciate him and his staff responding to my electronic messages recently. Thank you Dr Fang!!!!
