5.0 star star star star starDr. Chang was competent and professional. He explained the procedure, stopped in afterwards to give me the results, and called my husband with the results as he had promised in case I was not yet able to process the information after having been under anesthesia. In addition he was pleasant and kind. I don't know what else I could have asked for.
