June 29, 2023Pllumb N.Verified patient
I have been looking for a pediatrician that cares for their patients. Recently my experience with some pediatricians I tried was disappointing but she was so amazing. I kept saying the rest of the day how relieved and happy I am to have found her. Our first visit was beyond amazing. She is thorough, attentive, amazing with my son and exceptional bedside manner. She familiarized herself with my sons history asked me questions to better understand and made us feel so welcomed. She checked everything and every concern I had and kept me informed the entire visit. I am beyond thankful I finally found a pediatrician I trust! Times like these it’s important to have a pediatrician you trust! If you are looking for a pediatrician I highly recommend you go to her!

I relocated from NYC to Bergen county and I have two small children but I can finally relax knowing I have an amazing caring knowledgeable pediatrician that will make sure my kids are healthy . my 1 year old woke up with a eye infection she saw my daughter within the hour. some times its like pulling teeth to see a doctor but Dr. Chung is very accommodating and flexible. my first visit I needed to fill out the medical paper work for a new day care the documents were ready the next day. I am truly Thankfull.

November 15, 2022Mary N.Verified patient
The doctor and staff were friendly and efficient. They engaged my children and made them feel comfortable from beginning to end. The doctor was very knowledgeable, provided clear guidance and follow up steps. I don’t like changing providers, but I felt very pleased with her expertise and bedside manner. More times than not, you get one but not the other. She gave us both.
