List of Andrew Wang's Reviews
This isn't a doctor who seeks to provide health care as his main objective nor is this a doctor who understand how to be objective. Dr. Wang was my doctor for all of 2021 thus far, though his office refused to see me time and again. What happened happened because he made sure not to see me at any time I tried to make an appointment. My review is as follows: In March, I was bleeding from a UTI and called Dr. Wang, my Anthem Medi-Blue Select PCP to see him immediately. The officious receptionist at the office told me I am not Dr. Wang's patient and he is not accepting new patients: go to emergency if you want immediate care. I telephoned the Asian American Medical Group (AAMG) to complain that St. Francis Medical Group's Dr. Wang is "apparently" not my PCP even though my insurance card from Anthem says he is my PCP. The AAMG rep talked with Dr. Wang by telephone, confirming with her and for me that he was indeed my PCP. The rep from AAMG said St. Francis Medical Group made a mistake in

I telephoned the Asian American Medical Group (AAMG) to complain that St. Francis Medical Group's Dr. Wang is "apparently" not my PCP even though my insurance card from Anthem says he is my PCP. The AAMG rep talked with Dr. Wang by telephone, confirming with her and for me that he was indeed my PCP. The rep from AAMG said St. Francis Medical Group made a mistake in refusing me permission to see my primary care doctor. I did not need to contact Dr. Wang again until recently when I learned my surgery required I get some pre-op lab work done beforehand. I telephoned Dr. Wang at his office and again the receptionist told me that no registration exists for me as a patient, telling me as well that it was impossible for me to see an alternative doctor at this private clinic since my current medical insurance card does not have on it the name of the alternative doctor. I again telephoned AAMG and again AAMG insisted Dr. Wang was indeed my doctor. However, AAMG mentioned that Dr. Wang had no available appointments till late September and my scheduled surgery date precluded him from seeing me. AAMG thus arranged for me to see a P.A. by the name of Emily Fung for the following day. Hours before my appointment, and on the same day of my appointment, I tried to reach Emily Fung, P.A. by telephone to find out if I "had to" wear a mask and whether she honored any religious exemptions or medical exemptions from mask wearing. I telephoned at 10:30 a.m. and again at 2:10 p.m., forty minutes before my appointment. On each call, an answering service merely answered and after leaving my message that I wanted a callback before my appointment, I never once received a callback. When I arrived at 2:45 p.m. for my appointment, an office manager, wearing one of those toxic blue masks so popular these days in SF, opened the door and told me she needed to take my temperature. I let her take my temperature but then she told me I "had to" wear a mask. I showed her my religious exemption badge, which states, "Refusal of service may place you at risk for being prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. There is no evidence that I am a direct threat to the health and safety of others," etc. The office manager said, "Sue me! You're rude and I want you out of this office." When I agreed, under duress, to wear a mask, she said, "You must leave. You will not be seeing Dr. Fung." I insisted I was not leaving until I had a chance to see Dr. Fung. It was my medical right to receive service. The office manager left the empty waiting room in which I sat reading a book of poetry meanwhile and she spoke with Emily Fung, P.A. down the hallway. could hear their conversation. Ms. Fung agreed with the manager to refuse me medical service, and the two of them telephoned private security guards to take me out of the otherwise empty waiting room. I was not a threat or danger to anyone. If masks works and if Dr. Fung believed masks protect you, then I was certainly no danger to her or to the manager, both of whom were wearing identical masks.

The customer service at Anthem tried to seek redress with St. Francis Medical Group and/or Emily Fung, P.A., and she did so twice by telephone. On each attempt, whoever answered the phone hung up immediately after picking up, allowing no attempt at communication to resolve the conflict at all.The behavior by the answering service, by St. Francis Medical Group, by the absenteeism and hypocrisy of Dr. Wang, and by the cowardly, egregiously indifferent behavior of Emily Fong, P.A., and the rude and indifferent office manager, collectively, makes this one private medical clinic and group of practitioners that prospective patients interested in good quality of care and in ethical behavior want to avoid.The very next day, after my horrendous visit in Dr. Wang's office, Dr. Andrew Wang himself sent me an angry and fatuous letter "firing" me as his patient, a patient whom he never saw even once in all his days of medicine, claiming that I had been "loud" and had threatened his office with a lawsuit. He was not a witness to any of the events he reported in his letter, and he didn't bother to question whether the report about me he was given was gossip or projections from an emotionally unbalanced woman. His letter made exaggerated and false claims against me, a deed that is pretty shameful in its lack of objectivity.
Never saw the doctor. This is based on the lady who answered the phone. I really hope there is a recording of our conversation. She was very rude. I asked for an apt as a new patient . She said they are not accepting new patients because of on going insurance issues. And to call back in one month. I asked if There were recommendations for any doctors I can contact. She said no aNd hung up. I am human who wants to be treated with respect. I really hope she gets in trouble because this is the first step to a business and if she is treating people this way how are we suppose to trust our healthcare providers.. to every successful business she is a representation of the doctor and if this is what they think is a good face and role model, they are wrong. Please train the receptionist to treat people with respect. Not sure if she doesn't like her job, but if that's the case she should quit. Or if she is having a bad day, take a breather and walk away rather than answer the phone and be rude. I dont know the lady nor would I ever treat anyone like that.
This review is mostly for Dr. Wang's P.A., Emily Fung, who I see on a regular basis for the past year. Emily is amazing - she's patient, takes her time during the appointments to ask questions or explain an diagnosis. She's very calm and gentle. I get anxious about the doctor, but Emily's approach makes the visit a delight!
I've been a patient of Dr. Wang for a few years, and overall found him to be good. He's been accessible when I needed an urgent visit, and patient with explaining things and answering questions. I also appreciate that he does not overproscribe tests or procedures, and he's been open about telling me when something could be resolve with a simple over the counter solution, or even something like bed rest. He takes meticulous notes and will circle back on items from past visits. He does move a bit quickly sometimes, so it's helpful to have the questions you want answered in your mind to make sure you get to ask all of them, but I never felt overly rushed. I would recommend him.
This reflects the service of Andrew Wang and his staff.Andrew Wang rushed through every appointment of mine and failed to provide proper care for a chronic cough I've been having. I went to a different doctor today and they said at this point they were surprised he never issued a referral to see a lung doctor. Also, ... he did not see a hernia I might be developing... Which is surprising to me because within a week another doctor at my urgent care found out... With this doctor, you might risk your life.His front desk staff is cold and rude. It's hard to get through. From what I observe I suspect sometimes they put patients on hold just because they are chatting. Steer away.

Dr. Wang is extremely competent. He has never steered me wrong in all the years I have been seeing him. I’m still healthy (knock wood). Practice very busy so recommend doing business by fax or online if possible which they have set up pretty well. Lunch at the office is 12 to 2
