Again, the young man that came in to examine me before Dr Joeng was VERY attentive and kind. Not sure if he was a PA, or NP. I thought I remember him saying he too was a doctor but I could be wrong. At any rate he was a great part of my overall experience. Dr Joeng has been EXTREMELY kind since day 1. Love this team!

Provider was upfront stating that my reason for this appointment was not what he usually deals with. But I did get a 360 xray done to image my jaw/palate so he could make a decision about my need for any further care, and I did appreciate that.

I like DrJeong as a physician but communication is POOR. Left messages on portal with no response to review CT SCAN results. Dr Jeong finally called me, but unfortunately missed his call. I Requested a call back to discuss plan and review questions and it never happened from him or staff. The person that scheduled my procedure was rude and I had to call multiple times to set up my appointment. Overall not a great experience and improvement in this office is needed.
