Dr Ching thoroughly answered my many questions, and probably went over his allotted time to do so.

Unprofessional and does not care about his patients. He is everything that his bio says he is. He literally told my dad since he is 70+ years old he should deal with his heart problem until he dies. I would rate this doctor not even one and do not recommend to my enemies le along my friends.

A doctor who will interrupt your every two words with "mhmm", who did not seem to listen or want to take the time to listen. When I mentioned a neurological condition I have, he shrugged his shoulders and made a face because he hadn't heard of it before. Rather than stop to ask me about it, he just rushed on to get me out the door to unprofessional check-out staff, who had another doctor stepping over my shoulder to drop papers for another patient on top of mine on her desk. Patient privacy much? I won't be going back, I felt like cattle.

I saw Dr. Ching in the emergency room when admitted with arrhythmia. He did all and more than was necessary to make sure it wasn't just nerves. He got the diagnosis right, gave the right medicine and I was much better in about 6 months - exactly how long he said it would take. For heart problems, I would go back to him.
