This was the first time I met with Dr. Wang for a surgical consultation. She did not rush the appointment, went through my entire medical history, gave an overview of the procedure and risks, and answered every single question my husband and I had prepared in advance. She offered to answer any additional question through MyChart and to change my medication immediately. Her communication through MyChart has been very prompt as well.
