Dr. Ng was helpful and discussed all my options from treatment to surgery. He has a great bed side manner, tries to explain what is happening and is sensitive given the area of his specialty. So far I am pleased with my surgical results and would return if I had issues in the future.
My visit was excellent. He’s an amazing doctor!

Whole office and staff was professional
Verified patient
Very helpful doctor and provided a lot of relevant information that made it helpful to better understand my problem. One issue I had was they sent an incomplete prescription over to the pharmacy, so the pharmacy couldn’t prepare it. When I tried to follow up with the office I never heard back.
Dr. Ng was kind, knowledgeable, thorough, and took the time to carefully and thoughtfully listen to my health concerns. I would absolutely recommend his services.
Verified patient
Excellent doctor he explains everything
Verified patient
Good thoughtful doctor but his office cancelled my follow up appointment and did not inform me so I showed up for no reason. When I called to ask they said the visit was “bumped” and they did not even apologise for having failed to tell me about the cancellation.
The staff that worked in the office were highly attentive and very nice. Dr. Ng was very knowledgeable of what I was coming in for and took the time to make sure that I was understanding the issues at hand and explained how I could improve long-term. I have had trouble finding Doctor's since moving from Virginia and he was one of the best I have experienced here in the District.
