“The provider is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, understanding, and offers advice that really suits your needs.”

“ The strategies Cynthia Wong mapped out to help me achieve better health have been extremely helpful.
She stresses the importance of choosing consistent and enjoyable exercise- I walk first thing in the morning now and use that time to catch up on audiobooks I have wanted to listen to. She discusses mindfulness and eating without doing anything else, like watching tv, texting or reading. That was hard initially but I find I'm more aware of when I'm actually hungry and when I've had enough to eat when I'm focused on my meal. Her guidance is specific to your needs and preferences and she listens. I intend to recommend Ms. Wong to others.
My only issue, and it's not her fault, is that Ms. Wong called before the appointment date to tell me that my insurance would not cover my appointment unless I had a certain illness. I paid for the visit because the fee was relatively affordable but it would have been helpful to have this information available when I was choosing a provider.”

Cynthia was very helpful and thorough with her advice regarding my diet and gestational diabetes. She asked the right questions and was very understanding.
August 7, 2024Casey L.Verified patientVideo visit
I made an appointment with a medical professional because I lacked sound nutritional knowledge and wanted to obtain it to improve my habits and overall wellbeing. I came away from the appointment feeling insecure and judged for my present eating and lifestyle habits. Additionally I did not feel heard or understood by the medical professional.
More than 1 year agoAbel N.Verified patientVideo visit
Wonderful experience with this provider. She was informative, took her time and asked the right questions; the answers to which she listened with genuine interest. I feel lucky that I chose Cynthia Wong out of all the providers available.
February 7, 2024Olga L.Verified patientVideo visit
The appointment and insurance approval process was not organized, sloppy and caused alot of inconvenience. If they needed a doctors referral then this nutritionist should of reached out to us 2 weeks earlier to request for one and if the insurance does not cover then they should notified us at a timely manner. Instead yelling us the last minute of our appointment video meeting today!! It was just lousy terrible, rude, sarcastic customer service!!
January 4, 2024Ellen F.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr. Wong gave a lot of information but was careful to take her time and explain things clearly. Her bedside manner was fantastic. I would definitely recommend her to others.

The zoom called was short. The consultation was unable to be completed. I was transferred to another nutritionist due to unforseen circumstances But this provider seems like a good nutritionist I would recommend.
July 21, 2023Simone B.Verified patientVideo visit
she was friendly. she took the time to figure out why I was trying to lose weight. she also was willing to repeat her answers to my questions so that I understood in my own terms what she was trying to explain to me. she gave a lot of good suggestions and the time to write down what I needed to hear for my notes. I was concerned I was taking to much time, but she never made me feel like I was on a time limit. It was an open conversation with mutual respect between patient and doctor. Also don't be afraid to ask questions. That's what these sessions are for. I recommend speaking with her!
July 21, 2023Dupree R.Verified patientVideo visit
Cynthia is great! I highly recommend her.
July 13, 2023Mariya I.Verified patientVideo visit
Cynthia was polite, understanding and realistic when it came to my evaluation and goals. She listened to my concerns, reviewed my food intake and lifestyle habits and gave tailors recommendations for changes. She pointed out my learning decifits and suggested simple, achievable solutions. Don't get me wrong, changing eating habits and learning nutrition require constant effort and planning, which is hard, but I am feeling better prepared with Cynthia's assistance. She offered to answer any question I have via email after session, providing continuity of care, which I appreciate.

Understanding my concern and providing me with reasonable solutions. My doctor took the time to explain and map out the course of action. I really appreciated her expertise and the way she explained what was happening in my body with food intake and how to balance my portions. Thankful for the help at this time
July 12, 2022Lorraine B.Verified patientVideo visit
very friendly and informative. she gave me enough information to where I wasn't overwhelmed but so I felt confident on the next part of my journey. she worked with my liked and dislikes and did not criticize me for not eating certain foods. instead helping me to find alternatives and explaining to me in a way I wad able to fully understand. I would recommend her.
May 18, 2022Robert C.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr. Wong was very invested in my nutritional needs post-op. She was my go to after a major university system failed to meet my needs as a new bariatric patient. She was patient, thorough and addressed all of my question and concerns. More importantly, she asked me, first and foremost, how I was doing/feeling and that spoke volumes about her bedside manner.

Dr. Wong is very knowledgeable. She took her time to look at my chats to see what could be changed/ improved to help me achieve my weight loss goal.
More than 1 year agoCrystal A.Verified patientVideo visit
Knowledgeable! Aligned with modern views of weight management/weight loss and is not just going to tell you to eat less and move more. Simple changes you can implement based on info about your life

Very knowledgeable and helpful
June 3, 2021Inga G.Verified patientVideo visit
Visit went great she answered questions that I didn't even ask yet which felt like she knew exactly where I was coming from. She made it clear to me that the thought i had on losing weight isn't always true.. "if you aren't a breakfast person become a brunch person!" The way doctors in the past would make it seem like I have to lose 50+ pounds but in reality I am only less than 15 pound overweight.
June 2, 2021Marisa M.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr.Wong is truly amazing. She listened and gave great advice. You could tell she is knowledgeable and great at her job! She truly cares about her patients.

If you have a lot of weight to lose and are looking for a personalized experience, this is not the provider. I think she would be great for someone who has a little to lose and needs a push.
May 25, 2021Initials hiddenVideo visit
Did not feel fully understood. Not sure if she can support my nutrition goals that must be informed by my allergy issues. Difficult to tell from one meeting.
