Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. Dr. Huang did this by studying hard and becoming a Doctor. She gave me, an old man 30 more years? God bless Dr. Huang. NO PAIN, NO COMPLICATIONS, and SLEEP LIKE A BABY, after major surgery. John Nehring

Dr Huang is so very kind and understanding. She explains things so a lay person can understand. She was always there to answer my questions. The surgery team went beyond getting me prepared and even fixed my TMJ. The surgery had little recovery time and I was back to normal in a very short time.

This doctor has NO CLUE on how to do her job!! I had been suffering with a lot of pain with no relief from any meds. All she did was look at the area and tell me I needed to relax and take percocet for the pain and it would take a month to get better. Then she left with no other instructions....who knows if I was supposed to f/u??? I definitely WILL NEVER GO BACK!

She treats me like I should follow her opinion like a lamb going to be kill for food. Instead of giving me choices and leaving me to my decision, she throws a "hissy fit" when I said "no" until I get more information on the very invasive surgery she wanted to perform. And by the way, she said,"oh, I'm going to take out your uterus" like I was going to get a haircut and everything is going to all right with the world. I am NEVER going back to her again.

Very poor bedside manner. My follow up appt after being diagnosed with cancer, she didn't even ask 'How are you?' or similar.
