Patient Rating
Patients overwhelmingly praise the physician for empathy, compassion, and a reassuring bedside manner, with several saying he made them feel supported and hopeful during difficult diagnoses. Reviewers repeatedly note his thorough, unrushed explanations, strong communication skills, and knowledge of charts, imaging, treatment options, risks, and relevant studies, which helped them make informed decisions. Staff communication and follow-through are also highlighted; a small number of comments mentioned a wait to be seen but emphasized that the time spent with him was worthwhile.

I had a very positive experience. I loved Dr. Lyen Huang, he was caring and awesome to talk to!!
Dr. Huang explains things well. He also listens and answers all questions.
Dr. Huang spent an hour discussing my situation with me and my husband. We appreciated his patience with us as he told us about the pros and cons of my problem as he sees them, and answering our questions.

Dr Huang is a very nice, knowledge man. We both come to the conclusion for what is right for me. I like Dr Huang and Mindy the scheduler.
Dr. Huang provided professional advice in a forthright manner and seemed very positive about the ability to correct my problems. We are currently living a normal life and hoping that the situation doesn't recur.
Dr Huang listens carefully to his patient's concerns. He is very knowledgeable and explains the treatment clearly and involves the patient in the procedure.
Dr Huang answered all my questions thoroughly and spoke on my level of understanding. He was never rushed and was very attentive and I formative.
Overall, I was so impressed. The doctor took so much time to make sure he figured out the root of the problem. I've been to others who just put more meds to cover the pain but not try to figure out what's actually happening. I've been pain free for over a week and a half!
good
Dr Huang is very personable and caring. I told him I had not received an expected call from Dr Floreu. Dr Huang contacted her and his nurse called me the next day with updated information. I am so grateful for his diligence and follow through. it wasn't the news I wanted but I have a lot if faith in Dr Huang s advice. I appreciate Dr Huang
DR. Huang was authentically caring, informative,respectful of pts. emotions, professional in every way.
Dr Huang is one of those rare physicians who is really engaged with his work and attentive to the questions and concerns of his patients, which is really crucial when discussing surgery. I did have to wait a bit to see him, but if he made the same effort with the patient before as he did with me, then it was worth every minute. some things just take time and it was very comforting to have a surgeon give me the attention that my health condition warrants.
