    Dr. Wang is an excellent neurologist. She tracks my medications and reaches out when she sees a problem when medications prescribed by other providers can result in significant interactions. We also discussed current dosage levels of the medications that I'm on and whether they can be discontinued or reduced in dose. I'm very happy with the care she provides.
