For 15 years, I was looking for a doctor to tell me what was wrong with me feeling a bone on my throat, chronich sore throat, low voice range due to pain. Dr Chang ran all tests and told that i have silent reflux, probably from mucous coming from my stomach and there was nothing he could do for me but refer me to his Heart Burning doctor, which I'm seeing now. This Doctor is 100% Legit.

Dr. Chang has an exceptional website which allowed me to correctly self-diagnose a problem with my vocal cord. I saw him for a second opinion and no new information came to light. His interaction with me lacked empathy or compassion. However, he was willing to answer several questions by email which was helpful. I would return to him for treatment if my local ENT is unable to resolve my problem.

No wonder Dr. Chang has a prestigous reputation as a skilled, detailed Specialist! His knowledge and expertise in person are more impressive than I was aware.
September 23, 2011Patricia G.Verified patient
After a bit of research regarding Dr. Chang's experience with vocalists (laryngology expertise), I decided it was worth driving over an hour to see Dr. Chang. He and his staff were both professional and caring and took time to explain the procedures and the results, even with pictures and videos!
If I had to give any constructive criticism, it would be about allergy testing. The office does not do skin pricks, which tends to be more accurate than blood testing (according to my mom, who's a physician and knows a lot of ENTs). But there are plenty of other places if skin pricks are your preference. Otherwise, a positive experience!

I have 2 young children who Dr. Chang treated with great results. Tubes and no more infections. Now no more chronic tendinitis. Highly recommended!
