Patients generally praise Dr. George Chang for being thoughtful, professional, and thorough in his explanations, often describing him as an excellent and knowledgeable doctor who provides clear advice and takes time to address patient concerns. Many highlight his ability to communicate effectively, ensuring that patients understand their diagnoses and treatments.

Dr. Chang greets you, asks about you, then takes time to go over your past visits. He then examines, telling you what he is doing/looking for, what he has found, advises & make recommendations. Dr. Chang's professionalism is an example of what other drs. should aim for.

Dr. Chang mocked my visit from inception. I was requesting/fulfilling an ultrasound from a Dr. in Rome, Italy where I attend university. I was home on break and subsequently had to visit another urologist, who provided both an ultrasound and diagnosis. Dr. Chang's words were, "Come back when you are 50 and have a real problem"...your words Dr.-- Navigating healthcare is tedious and difficult enough but Dr's who play GOD and are not willing to provide services that WE pay for -- have no place. You are now under investigation at Cigna and can answer to them. We will be paying the urologist who provided care and services a few days later. Seek professional bedside manner training and be more professional for future patients.
