“Dr. Derek Chung has been my primary care physician for over 20 years, and the exceptional care he has provided throughout that time is exactly why I followed him to his new practice. Dr. Chung is an outstanding physician who combines extensive knowledge with compassion, patience, and genuine concern for his patients. He takes the time to listen, thoroughly addresses every concern, and never makes you feel rushed or overlooked. I have always felt seen, heard, respected, and valued under his care. Having a PCP you can trust with your health for more than two decades is truly invaluable. Dr. Chung represents everything a primary care physician should be—professional, attentive, knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated. I am grateful to continue having him as my physician and would recommend him without hesitation. Five stars are simply not enough!”

“The MA was amazing. I believe her name was Luana. Mr. Chung was amazing and gave me some new information to help with my epilepsy disorder. I will most definitely be coming back.”

Appalling experience. I left because I hadn’t been seen after an hour. Rude staff. Avoid at all costs.

Dr came in late, patients not notified. Time now 2.05pm, have not yet seen the Dr. appt 12:15pm. Just received a call from drs office that I missed my appointment. I’ve been in the waiting room since noon

April 17, 2026Irene P.Verified patient

Waited 2 hours before deciding to leave as I had things to do and couldn’t stand wasting away. People who arrived after my appointment were being seen ahead of me too.

March 30, 2026Jonathan B.Verified patient

AVOID they will take your appointment and make you wait hours as if you don’t have one. If you are sick seriously consider going elsewhere. Most frustrating medical experience of my life.

March 9, 2026Thomas S.Verified patient

The MA was amazing. I believe her name was Luana. Mr. Chung was amazing and gave me some new information to help with my epilepsy disorder. I will most definitely be coming back.

January 9, 2026Immani A.Verified patient

I showed up 15 minutes early for my 330 appt, waited for an hour and a half past my appointment time and decided to walk out when two patients that were there before I arrived told me they were waiting for their appointments for 230 and 3. At that point I was told 25 minutes earlier that there were still 2 people ahead of me and nobody was called in within that 25 minutes. The front office staff were great and kind and apologetic (nothing was their fault) clear overbooking by the office
