    A fellow parent on our school district parent FB site recommended Dr. Lili Kung. My husband and I…read morehave now seen her twice. We had to have our wellness checks as required for his workplace health insurance program. She is in-network for UnitedHealthcare's Consumer DIrected High Deductible Plan (Choice Plus). We booked the initial appointment on Zocdoc, but received a call the next day from the receptionist Gizelle that Zocdoc had triple-booked that time slot. Zocdoc has issues, but once you have the initial appointment, you'll never have to use it again. We have made subsequent appointments directly. You will receive an SMS reminder 2 days before the appointment and an automated voice message to confirm the appointment one day before I would also say to ignore the strange comment about rude staff. Gizelle has been the model of sweetness and light. I even managed to catch her today to pick up some test results after office hours because I didn't realize the office closed at 3pm on Fridays and she welcomed me as usual. Dr. Kung's assistant is relatively new to the practice. I think her name is Azaliah (not sure about the spelling). She did a great job with the pre-consultation checks, including the bloodwork - which I still don't like to do, even as an adult. She was calm and friendly. Dr. Kung herself is gentle and professional. I'm still slightly overwhelmed by the number of specialists to which she referred my husband and me - 5. We'll have to work our way slowly through them as we're still in the midst of settling into our new home and will only be getting our shipment either next week or the week after. I appreciated her making herself available to answer some questions I had between appointments. My parents are retired, so I checked and confirmed that Dr Kung is also in-network for: AARP MedicareComplete Essential (HMO), AARP MedicareComplete Plan 1 (HMO), AARP MedicareComplete Plan 2 (HMO), UnitedHealthcare Nursing Home Plan 1 (PPO SNP) and UnitedHealthcare Nursing Home Plan 2 (HMO SNP). Will be bringing my parents there as soon as their Medicare Part B coverage kicks in in July.

    I've written reviews before because we're often inundated with negative news about our healthcare…read moresystem and providers. That's why it's even more important to acknowledge those who go above and beyond.I truly enjoy visiting Dr. Lilly Kung's practice. Her staff is not only professional but also incredibly personable. You never feel rushed, whether you're getting your blood pressure taken by the wonderful staff or sitting down with Dr. Kung, who takes her time to answer all your questions and genuinely cares about her patients. Her knowledge and professionalism remind me of the days when doctors made house calls. Overall, it's a full package ? a complete joy and a wonderful experience with Dr. Kung and her amazing team.

    My son is currently an inpatient at this facility. He informed me today that the bathroom hasn't…read morebeen fully cleaned in almost a week. No soap for patients to clean their hands after using the bathroom. Only the garbage has been changed daily. The doctor refuses to give him his anti-anxiety medicine saying she wants to work on the issues causing the anxiety but nothing happens. Groups are a joke. Instead of a morning group, they have a morning check in where nothing happens. Additionally they've started a Reflection hour where the patients have to stay in their rooms for an hour to "reflect." This place has a minute amount of entertainment for the patients so they're already spending a portion of their day in their rooms. The staff says that this is something that should be happening every day but my son has been there for a week now and this is the first time. I feel like the staff just doesn't want to deal with the patients. I really like my son's social worker but he's probably the only good thing about this place.

    This review is long over due since 2014 or so and it is awful to read about the experiences and…read moretragedies that are still occurring at this place out of a legitimate nightmare and should be shut down. It does not deserve even one star but there is no option to give it 0 or -100. It is not safe here. They will place one single young female alone with men much older who the stuff does not care when you are harassed, sexually or in general. I was on the phone trying to call my father when a man who had been following me around for days grabbed me from behind, groped my body, as well as my neck. All while my father was hearing this on the phone. He was horrified and slept in the parking lot until any real medical staff would show up as they are hardly there and are gone if you are there during any weekend times. They do not listen to you, your safety seems to be of no concern to them. The condition of their units are atrocious. People were openly sick from the conditions, a place of despair with no one cleaning up blood, bathrooms, or general areas. I saw many people get physically sick from eating the only food you are forced to eat. The food was disgusting and they seemed to claim this place offers therapy but all they have you do is draw pictures like you are in kindergarten, host both sex yoga sessions in the hallways with men, who in front of me twice assaulted each other into a fight of who could stand directly behind the one or two young female patients there (I must have been 20, the other girl maybe 18-19), out of the rest mainly older men with serious aggressive anger issues with staff showing no concern of the fight results in you in the middle of it. There are no real therapists and any doctor or person with authority may give you 5 or less minutes and then abandon you. I believe they incited mental illness or worsened it for many people there, give almost everyone the same day time dose or 300 plus dose of antipsychotics despite some people being over 300 points vs some under 100. Even without being a doctor that did not seem normal at all You may get 20 minutes outside if it is not raining, they have enough staff, and if some idiot was found with a lighter or tried to smoke inside every single persons right to go outside was taken away, even if it occurred every time in the men's bathroom. Also, you are allowed to smoke outside but people have to ask the staff outside for a lighter if they happen to have their own personal one LOL. Sounds like prison, and ridiculous. It took the staff hours to secure the patient who assaulted me and all they did was put him a 30 minute "time out" and then let him about around everyone. Good luck making any phone calls, they just have coin operated phones and if anyone calls you most likely no one will tell you. I could literally write an entire book about the most awful and disgusting things I have seen occur in only a short time here. This place is a nightmare, poorly staffed, ran by awful doctors who have directly led to people losing their lives by medical reactions to treatments they provide that or have killed themselves. If you need help, do not ever go here, or send anyone you love here. If you did not already have PTSD when arriving here, you will Most likely leave with it a severe way.
