Christopher H. Chang's Online Review Report Card

This is the worst experience ever. The Dr. was rude uncompassionate and made me feel rediculous for the questions I asked!I will not be returning!!

The most rude, uncaring doctor I have ever been to. He rushed in and checked the computer for my reason for being there. Never greeted me or seemed to care. I was there because I am having trouble sleeping. I am on oxygen and my nose clogs up during the night so I have to flip flop when one side clogs. I was looking for a solution to getting a full night's sleep. He ran something up my nose and then asked if I had any allergies, which I am not aware of any. I have some issues each year with leaf mold and new mulch but my problem is year round. Each time I answered his question he challenged my answer which was annoying. Finally he sent me for lab work at Lab Corp and only to determine if I had an allergy for trees, not for mold or dust. The biggest waste of my time and money ever. He called in a prescription not knowing my problem. He walked out of the examining room without saying a word. I was left to decide if my appointment was over or what. I walk with a walker and have to carry oxygen. No help from this office or doctor. Avoid him and this office if possible. I know the doctors on Hospital Hill have the medical care for Fauquier County pretty much tied up. But avoid this one please. I'm old and I see a lot of doctors. This is one you don't want to encounter. He even gave the wrong instructions for the lab. Such a nasty person. Avoid this doctor and go anywhere but here!

Dr. Chang is a brilliant and effective doctor. I had suffered nasal polyps and resulting infections, uncomfortable breathing, asthma, etc, for decades. He suggested two options, and after discussion i chose the medical treatment program that he recommended resulting in near elimination of the polyps as well as material improvement of my asthma. He was quick to diagnose, quick to treat, and quick to cure my problems. I highly recommend Dr. Chang.

I want people to read this one carefully before coming to this butcher . He is not a doctor , he is just butcher cutting people meet for live and money . My mom went there for chronic painful swallowing, he did an exam and laryngoscope that he said he saw nothing wrong . He touch the right tonsil and my mom felt pain. Because of this he decided to remove right tonsil ( normal under the scope) . He put in the surgery paper work the reason is the mass. When I asked him about this , he said this is for insurance purposes. My mom had tonsils removal and the pain did not go away at all. When we asked him about this , he said because of cancer cells that prevent normal healing . He said this after the histopathology result came in . When I took the report to expert oncologist at Johns Hopkins , he said the result shows no cancer . I returned back to Dr. Chang , he finally decided to do CT scan. Which my sister tried to convince him to do it before surgery and he refused . CT scan shows mark on lower pharynx which is a few centimeters lower to the tonsil he removed . He refused to look at them again in laryngeoscope and he was saying she needs another surgery. I took my mom to different doctor and look at the lesion by scope and saw abnormal cells . Why Dr. Chang could not see it before surgery ? Why he insist to remove tonsil which was totally normal ? We need to report this one as a scam to us and to insurance .

Dr. Chang saw my wife and son for 5mins to give his expert opinion on whether or not my son would need a procedure to fix his tounge as he is possibly tounge tied.He responded "50/50, should we go ahead and do the procedure now?" She let him know she would discuss it with her husband and then make a decision.A week later a bill for $245 showed up. Call me crazy, but I would have a hard time looking myself in the mirror if I charged a couple of new parents that much money for a non answer and literally no service provided. We were referred by our pediatrician who already told us there was a 50/50 chance, that's why we went to the specialist....????When I called to dispute the "office visit" (as it was so defined to me by the office manager) I was told that it was up to my insurance and how technically it was a diagnosis and as she read me the doctor's notes from the visit, he wrote there, that it was a 75% chance of being tounge tied (I'd imagine to protect him against claims such as mine since even he could see that "50/50" is a non-diagnosis)This is probably the third review I've ever written on a business, but I see a real problem with the way this greedy doctor operates his practice and the arrogance it takes to charge that much for absolutely nothing. The $25 copay was too much for what we got.I would urge you to look elsewhere and find someone more honest.

Seemed knowledgeable, but was visibly bored by me and my little problem. He had a high school student shadowing him at the time--which I agreed to, thinking the doctor would be at his best in front of the kid, but no. One of those doctors who leaves you feeling lesser, and less likely to seek medical care in general, if you know what I mean.(*this visit was not a recent one, so maybe he's learned some bedside manner in the meantime, but I will not be back to find out)

Worst experience ever. Dr. Chang was Condescending and rude. Went for hearing testing and was given questionable results. Was bamboozled into allergy blood test and 7 vials later they had no idea what I was allergic to. Don't waste your time.

Dr. Chang treated my daughter for an issue with pressure in the ears and released the tongue and lip tie of my baby. He was very knowledgeable and caring.... however for some reason the tongue and lip reattached. Chances are like one in a hundred or something that it would reattach again and again and again. Dr. Chang did his best to help me and even did the procedure 3 times, the last time adding a stitch. He referred me to a pediatric specialist in Georgetown University who wouldn't help us. I ended up going to a pediatric dentist who did the procedure again and had me do very comprehensive stretching exercises that finally did the trick. All in all Dr. Chang is an awesome ENT, very smart and knowledgeable. He helps a lot of babies with tongue and lip ties. Dr Chang is caring, smart and cutting edge in Otolaryngology.

I had the coblation surgery almost 3 months ago. Thanks to God so far I do not see any stone. I waited to write the review to know for sure, since it takes about 3 months to come back or not. This is the best thing I did for myself in years, still paying a couple of thousands of dollars but it is worthy. About the doctor, he did explain the procedure well and warned me there is 20-30% chance it will come back. It is so nice not to see those ugly stones every day. The procedure was done at the hospital because of my other problems, which I think should not be a concern. That is why it cost more than 8 thousand dollars. If you do not have major problem insist to have done at the surgical center, your cost will be half if not one fourth. I just could not understand less than 1 hour surgery cost over 6000 just hospital bill. Anyways if you suffer like me for years, it is worthy. The recovery was a bit unexpected. I was in bed for about 4 days, the first night was terrible. You have to be on liquid diet for a couple of days and use salt to gurgle after any meal/soup. The nurses at the hospital were great and very friendly. Dr. Chang is good what he does and answered my most questions and took time to explain the surgery and the outcome. However, he could have been a bit nicer. Hope this review helps someone, the reviews from Breezy helped me and I decided to do the surgery after I read her good experience. In this chance I want to thank her for all responds she sent me by e-mail
