As above. Personal relationship with him is excellent.

Dr Huang was tremendous. I have severe hearing loss. Dr Huang took great effort to explain the medical issues. Several times he had to go slowly and repeat information that I missed the first or second time. He explained in detail the path needed to relieve the medical.

Dr. Huang has been my endocrinologist for over 15 years and I like how he dealt with my non-compliance at the beginning of my diabetic journey. Stressing to me the importance of taking care of myself and how an uncontrolled sugar level would bring on serious secondary illnesses. He has also helped me learn and use the new technologies that have been developed throughout the years.
