Dr. Chun is knowledgeable, methodical and thorough. I did not quite feel comfortable with his approach which is to my mind, kind of pushy and a bit hurried.

Excellent office and right on time with appointment time. Would highly recommend anyone seeking a GP to head this way.

Great experience. Friendly, professional staff. The doctor was great, listened to concerns, offered suggestions as well as solutions. Great at putting me at ease. I felt comfortable discussing my situation.
The Visit was very superficial. I don't think he asked enough questions or really was concerned about my overall health.. I actually have another appointment which I plan on counseling. Because I ordered all of these different tests. Is blood work a neurologist appointment that I can't even get in contact with that he. Referred me to his office. Can't get the referral sent over to the neurologist. So that's a terrible mess they're referral. System doesn't work because they don't do their part on their end. So I don't like this doctor's office. I'm hoping to change doctors very soon. And I wouldn't recommend this office to anyone in my family. I don't even know how I'm gonna get the blood work done or the referral To the neurologist, they're very unhelpful in this office and they rush you through your appointment. They don't have that very good personal touch that I was expecting
Verified patient
Dr Kwan was very good, the only downside of the experience being that I was seen 30 minutes later than my appointment. The time lot was doubly booked, explained they.
Verified patient
The doctor was really good . He was patient , a very good listener and analyses my health problem well. However Carbon Health telecommunications system is really poor . They need to work on it , so that the patient can access them as and when required regarding their appointment schedule , billing etc

I love the vibe here! I felt like the whole team was focused on a positive, low stress environment, which I need - I grew up going to very cold doctor’s offices, so this kindness is absolutely what I need to keep my health a priority. Thank you, Carbon family! You guys are the best!
Verified patient
The office may seem a little bare and could use some art on the walls, but the people are top-notch; they know what they're doing! Very computer and phone app savvy, very modern. Thank you!

I would describe my experience as "mostly good," although, I can't say that I've LOVED any patient experience in a physician's office. I mostly go because I "should" and not really for any particular medical concern. I will say that it seemed like he skirted around my height/weight probably because my BMI is high (i'm 4 10, 140lbs, however I have an athletic build and probably more muscular than the average short gal). And while I don't have a "runner's" body, I've always been fit so it's weird to see an MD guide his wellness care around BMI still. While there ARE true concerns to obesity in America, he didn't seem to take into consideration my actual lifestyle versus #s on a paper (i.e. my VS are well within range). I do like how efficient and digital the office seems to be (Carbon Health is like that, it seems, in my previous experiences). I'll probably go again should any issues come up in my pending lab work, but it's just as well if I visited another physician.
It was fine, it was expedient. But I got a bad feeling from the doctor, super condescending. I tried to forget about it on the first visit, but wound up having a bad follow up experience. I didn't feel believed or respected, and proper care doesn't really come from a place like that. Finding someone new. The office staff were nice, though.
Have been searching for a Primary Care Physician since the unexpected departure of our long time doctor. Requested a ‘meet & greet’ appointment with Dr. Chun to determine if the office was a good fit moving forward. Was a bit surprised as they were ready to begin the blood pressure and vitals before I actually met Dr. Chun. That said, the staff was extremely efficient and Dr. Chun was kind and professional. Happy to have found an office that is efficient, communicative and professional. Look forward to continuing my health care with Dr. Chun and his team.

Very patient and clear.
By far the best and most competent doctor's appointment during my two years living in the East bay. Dr. Chung is a great listener and took my reason for coming in seriously. I will definitely be back
