Dr Houng was personable, professional, knowledgeable and willing to explain in detail any of my concerns. I'm very pleased and will go back to him.

I have been in NC for about 4 years and have never really had a primary care provider. I did some research based on my insurance and the availability of online appointments, and I found Dr. Houng.
I honestly cannot say enough about how at ease he made me feel and the genuine concern he showed regarding my health issues. He is very in-depth and thorough, in a very judgement free zone.
Sometimes speaking about health and issues can be difficult and I can't recommend Dr. Houng enough. He is in it with you every step of the way and his end game is to get you better and will help and guide you wherever you need it.
The nurse who did my preliminary vitals and questions about my visit was also outstanding. At the end of my visit she also did my blood work and was quick and efficient.
I thought their office practice of paying before you are seen is a little strange, but I also haven't been to a doctor in a while, so maybe that's a common practice now...
The girl that called to remind me of my appointment, from what I can tell, must be bi-lingual and pretty much just ran through what she had to say and was not exactly legible.
But overall, many thumbs up to my nurse and Dr. Houng!
