I have been going to this doctor's office for a while because my in-laws recommended this office…read more The doctors, physician's assistants and staff are good here. However, as of the late, my main frustration is their prescription refill process. It seems like when you call the office you do not reach anyone directly - I think it's a call center. I tried to refill my prescription but when it went to the pharmacy it was declined by the doctor. Thus, began a continuous loop of me calling the office, regurgitating the same information call after call to various call receivers, and never getting a call back from the doctor/office. This is really hard on people when they rely on certain medication for assistance.

How do they not have time to see a patient who walks in at 8-am. The second of only 2-people. The front desk certainty won't ask to fit you in for any cancellations like they used to and they tell you the soonest they can see you is 3 days later. Taking the urgent care away feels like a disservice and you can feel that some of these people couldn't care less or show any initiative. Oh and good luck renewing a prescription, they'll forget and drop the ball over and over again. Had to set an appointment with a practitioner and pay a $25 co-pay just to renew my prescription because no one at the front desk could facilitate a simple request. I was told numerous times that it would be taken care of. Yea right.

The last 2 times the doctor whom I like is completely inept with "this new computer program" which has been in place for over a year. The amount of consideration for the patient is non exstitant. This procedure has put me at the mercy of corporate medicine. They have closed one urgent care center and shut them down one after another medical office as they continue to buy out others and close them down. They lead the way in the downward spiral of patient care.

Dr. Chung has been steadfast in getting each of my parents the specialists they need, listens carefully to their concerns and always follows up with their progress between appointments. I also can't say enough about the quality of the staff. In particular, Gilbert was so helpful in helping to schedule some pre-op appointments, knowing we were coming up close to the actual procedure. Furthermore, when Dr. Chung is not in the office, it is someone like Dr. Sophia Chun, who stepped in and really took her time to understand care to my mothers needs. It is this kind of teamwork, care and attention that is so appreciated and makes it so much more pleasant to visit a health care clinic.

Other specialty doctors practice here part time and it is easy to make an appointment when they are present. Staff is super friendly and so far all my appointments have been on time.

Her medical knowledge and ability to understand and explain complex health issues are outstanding. She takes the time to listen carefully, answer questions, and make sure her patients feel supported and informed at every visit. Dr. Scott's office reflects the kind of caring person she is. She has pictures of her pets and her children's artwork displayed, which creates such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. She is also an avid reader and even keeps a small library of books in her office that patients can borrow, showing how deeply she values both health and lifelong learning. She truly cares about her patients and always goes above and beyond to provide the best care possible. In addition to her professional excellence, Dr. Scott is an inspiring role model. She is a dedicated runner and athlete, and she brings that same discipline, energy, and positive spirit to her medical practice. I feel very fortunate to have Dr. Scott as my primary care physician.
