Dr Fung went above and beyond to correct my vision problem in office at my appointment instead of making me reschedule. He is a wonderful physician who listens to his patients and always know the answers/solution to any question/vision issue. He is at the highest levels of his profession and BSW Is very lucky to have him on staff.
