It's my first time seeing him. He's professional and patient. I'm also very glad he showed interest in my 8-yr-long foot swolleness issue (when my other doctors all told me to just wear compression stocking); it was a relief to hear him say "you don't want to just treat the symptoms, but not treating the cause of the symptoms. Anyway, I'm switching my primary care physician to him.
I was able to schedule an appointment with Dr Hung very last minute and he really took the time to explain things to me. All the staff was friendly and efficient. Highly recommended!!

Horrible experience, The nurses and doctor does nothing t know what is genotype lol, for real, They don’t know what is a gene, They told me that.. After browsing it online, they told me that I will have to pay extra to run the test.. They just care about money and co pay... I will never go there or recommend that horrible clinic to anyone.

He barely checked what was wrong with me, just asked my symptoms and assumed what I had and told me to take Tylenol. I went to to another doctor after cause I felt it was worse and did was.
Dr Hung explains everything logically. The only catch is that sometimes you have to ask questions. He has been my doctor for 3 years. One of my family members was having a death threatening side effect to a medication that another doctor prescribed. He was so sick and we went to a neurologist and another PCP before meeting with Dr. Hung. Dr Hung took the right blood tests and called us that very night and prescribed a medicine that saved my family member's life. He's a very good doctor.
Dr. Hung was very professional, kind, and not overbearing. It was a brief consultation but I can tell that he cares about his patients.
Verified patient
Dr. Hung gives very thorough and easy to understand explanations of medical jargon. He'll even pull up diagrams on Google images to show what the things he's explaining look like. The staff at the office are all polite and the nurse is a pro at drawing blood.
Verified patient
It was a very pleasant and smooth experience. Dr. Hung is very patient in explaining things to me. His front desk receptionist is friendly and helpful too. I had to make changes to my appointment time for a few times, and they are all being very accommodating. I later on had a issue when picking up my prescription at the pharmacy, the receptionist called the pharmacy for me to solve the issue. It turns out that it was the pharmacy who made a mistake.
Verified patient
receptionist is a little rude but the Doctor is informative and patient. If this location if convenient for you, then give this office a try
The front desk staff was friendly and Dr. Hung was very kind and patient. However, even with an appointment I waited almost 1.5 hours to be seen.
Verified patient

Very smart doctor. Extremely clean office.
Verified patient
Dr Hung makes the effort to answer all of my questions. His staff is friendly and the office is clean. He doesn't provide names to other specialists but he'll inform you to see one if needed. Sometimes language barriers may be an issue when asking questions and sometimes it's making sure that I get my question in because he really takes the time to explain each question that I may forget to ask or may have to look for any opportunity to ask. I recommend seeing Dr. Hung but always make sure to ask questions if things are unclear or you feel a concern hasn't been addressed.
His staff where very attentive, they acknowledge me as soon as I came in the door, they were very professional, and the place is super clean and comfortable. The doctor was very informative and attentive as well, he never rushed me and was concerned about my health. Thank you so much!!! I'm glad I switched to him for my primary Doctor.
Verified patient
He was very attentive, engaging, and expressed understanding over my concerns . He took the time to explain all the possible diagnosis for me, as well as the treatments. Dr. referred me to start with x-rays and blood work, which is more than I was expecting for a first visit! Overall I am very content with the service in the office.
Verified patient
They were very attentive and helpful. I have some troubles with my insurance and they called them right away. Very friendly and caring. The office environment very calm and clean.
Verified patient
Good at explaining things but make sure to ask questions. He's informative and patient and more beneficial by asking him questions so concerns aren't inadvertently unaddressed. Staff is friendly. Really clean office. Patients are mostly Chinese but it seems that he's so helpful that there are more non-Chinese patients than when I first became a patient.
Dr Hung spends plenty of time with me during my visits. He explains things thoroughly. It's good to communicate concerns with him because he explains them. The office is all Chinese (staff and patients) yet his English is very good. His staff is also nice but barely speak English which becomes difficult in communicating and creates less reassurance that things are being processed or addressed properly. I recommend Dr Hung but bring your thoughts and concerns about your condition because your visit will be all the more helpful.

Dr. Hung is very nice and has good patient to explain a lot for me. I can fully understand my health condition and situation and how to maintain my health.
Overall , the experience was very smooth- the receptionists were friendly, and Dr. Hung was very effective in his treatment, with clear explanations and a professional but amiable attitude. I will continue to see Dr. Hung in the future for my health related needs.
