“Dr. Wang is thoughtful, caring, and effective. I have been a patient of Dr. Wang for the past 7 months. During my search for a psychiatrist, all of the Drs I spoke with led with a focus on medication and medication management. Dr. Wang was the only one who took time to listen to my concerns and work within my wishes to start with a therapy approach before discussing medication. During sessions, she is objective and straightforward with her evaluation of what she hears and observes. She is upfront about expectations and holds me accountable to do my “homework” in preparation for our weekly sessions. I’ve grown a lot during my time with Dr. Wang. I know my journey will not be easy, but with her guidance and support of my goals, I will get there. I would highly recommend Dr. Wang.”

    Dr. Wang is an empathetic and detailed practitioner who focuses on the entirety of the process of healing, not just medication.
    Dr. Wang is very professional and always makes me feel comfortable in our sessions. She is a great listener and provides helpful insight when I ask for advice. I would highly recommend her!
    very calm and engaged
    Very comfortable; caring and professional
    Dr. Wang is warm and truly cares for the mental health of her patients. I am very excited for her to help me in the next coming months!
    Verified patient
    Very attentive to your thoughts and needs. Gets to the core of what you are feeling. Acknowledgement and no judgments. She is also really sweet - easy to talk to.
    Dr. Wang was so kind. She really took the time to understand my background and helped to come up with a future plan. I look forward to working with her more.
    I would highly recommend Dr. Wang to anyone seeking psych treatment. I saw two psychiatrists and ended up deciding to keep seeing her. After I explained my concerns, she went straight into asking the right questions to determine what would work best for me. Dr. Wang was very thoughtful and helpful in how she would explain things to me and you can tell she is someone who knows what she is doing. I have been seeing her for a few months now and her initial treatment plan has been working and I've seen progress. She discussed long term strategy with me and we have made adjustments over time to find the right balance for me. Dr. Wang makes me feel comfortable opening up and simultaneously confident in her treatment plan.I have been actively recommending her to my friends.
    She is very knowledgable and very professional.
    I have had a very bad experience with psychiatrists in the past. I thought being able to talk to a psychiatrist about my issues, but also get help with a good medication plan wasn't possible. Dr. Wang listened to me took her time went over my history, and I felt like she was listening to me the whole time. SHe is so easy to talk to and I am really confident about my future with her. I'm looking forward to our next appointment. She is a good Dr. among so many terrible ones. Could not recommend her more.
    Dr. Wang is extremely smart and compassionate! A great listener and problem solver. Highly recommend her to any future patients.
    Verified patient
    Dr. Wang is great! She is incredibly kind and so knowledgeable! I felt so comfortable right from the start. She truly cares about what you have to say and is your best advocate! Would highly recommend!
    She was very thorough, attentive, and caring. I really felt that she listened and discussed a path that would lead to the greatest benefit to help me achieve my ultimate goal. I find that there are a lot of bad doctors in New York and I am happy to say she is not one of them! I highly recommend her. Her consultation left me feeling excited to develop an ongoing relationship with her in helping me overcome my insecurities. Besides she is Harvard top notch! Meet her, she really is genuine, and I feel that she really cares for others.
    I felt like Dr. Wang has supported me through all my problems. She made me feel safe and it was easy to talk to her. Dr. Wang is very experience and helped me through a period when I felt suicidal. She gave me hope about my medications and further treatment options.
    My visit with Dr. Wang has always been enjoyable. She is highly professional. I feel that I am well taken care of medically and psychiatrically. I trust her and I have probably told her things that no one else in the world knows about. I am so glad to have had her as a doctor. I am sad to say good bye to her since she is leaving Boston and moving to New York! Boston's loss is new York's gain!
    I found my visits very rewarding. Dr. Wang is very professional and treats me with great respect. I gained a lot of knowledge from talking to her about my problems. I found my experience to be overwhelmingly positive. It was an experience of a life time for me. I feel that she has a great future and people should be appreciate a great doctor!
    I first met Dr. Wang 2 years ago when I was in a very low phase of my life. Slowly, she helped to turn my life around. This past year, I got married and brought a house. She was there for me all along the way. I always look forward to my appointment with Dr. Wang. She genuinely cares about her patients, and her gentle manners made it very easy for me to open up. She is one of the best doctors I have ever had.
    Dr. Wang in my clinical oppo, is and will be a dedicated and immensely qualified Healer of broken Souls. On a personal note, that's what she did for me ?? Thankful Veteran,
    I felt very comfortable with Dr. Wang. She explained everything very well, so I felt confident in the treatment she provided. She always made the time for me and would never cut a session short. She was able to unlock things from me that no other doctor was able to get because of our connection. She was probably the best doctor I've ever had at the VA. It was a good connection right away, and I really appreciated the two years of treatment I had with her.
    Dr. Wang made it possible for me to sleep at night, which changed my life. I had trouble sleeping after my wife passed away, but with medication and therapy, I slowly came out of the depression. I have Dr. Wang to thank for that. I am very lucky to have had her as my doctor!
    Dr. Wang is very good at what she does. She always knows what she is talking about, and I come away from each appointment learning something new. It has been tremendously helpful. I wish her best of luck. I highly recommend her!
