She took an interest in all of my symptoms, not just the main ones I came in for. In our follow-ups her thoroughness is also evident.

I have been seeing this wonderful RA doctor, Dr Tong since 1998. She's very compassionate and very…read moresoft spoken. She listens and takes her time with you. The best rheumatologist specialist and I love her. I had gone through 10 RA specialists before Dr Tong since 1991 when diagnosed with RA and by far she has been the best rheumatologist specialist. I highly recommend Dr. Irene Tong and you won't be disappointed. You might have to wait a little longer at the lobby or in the patient room but it's worth the wait. Oh.. and the staff, they are so friendly and courteous. A very professional and friendly environment!

My husband has been seeing Dr. Reehal for over 10 years for his RA and loves him. However, the Dr…read morejust moved to a new office at Keck and we got billed over $2,000 for a 10 min office visit, including a cortisone injection (he's had this done many times at the old office). We've never been charged much for this same thing since we have PPO insurance. Billing is treating it as a hospital visit though this was the Dr office. No one has been able to help us. At the very least, tell us up front that it will cost $$$$$ for the visit. Then we would not have made the appointment! I cannot believe we are being treated this way. Beware!

I am incredibly grateful that a second opinion referral led me to Dr. Reehal. I have a complex…read moremedical diagnosis that's been difficult to treat. Dr. Reehal is by far the most humble, compassionate, and caring practitioner I have ever worked with. In our first meeting he had clearly read through my medical details so we could have a productive conversation. He has actively pursued collaboration with several other specialists, visited me in the hospital and ensured that I was receiving adequate care, and he's extremely accessible and communicative. If he says he's going to follow up with me, he does. Nothing falls through the cracks. He genuinely wants to learn from my condition and help me and his concern for my well being is very clear. This is in stark contrast to most experiences I have had with other doctors. It's not only refreshing, but emotional. With the level of physical decline I am experiencing, I would expect to feel hopeless, but Dr. Reehal gives me hope. I would recommend him without reservation.

When I call to check in or move appointments the first thing I hear is "really? Really? Are you serious? We're gonna have to charge you for that." I don't mind if your office has a policy to charge no-shows, but speaking to me like some kind of highschool kid that skipped class is insulting. Once again while Dr Rachabatulla is great, there are other rheumatologist out there, and many more with more professional staff. Common courtesy should be that fucking hard.

I appreciate the doctor's care -- she is very good. However, I had a difficult experience with the…read moreoffice staff, particularly Fermina. She didn't seem to understand that I need my physical therapy prescription as soon as possible. I ended up having to leave the office without the prescription, and unfortunately had to return later with no result. The parking alone cost me $8.75, which made the situation even more inconvenient. I also mentioned that the prescription could simply be faxed to me, but she insisted that the doctor needs 72 hours to issue it -- which seems unreasonable for something so straightforward.

She takes all the time you want to go over ever detail of medications, lab results, general health issues. She is very proactive when it comes to dealing with any issue that you present. The friend who referred me to Dr. Ng literally owes her life to Dr. Ng who diagnosed in very early stages cancer of her kidney, and who is now completely recovered and healthy. You can call her any time of day or night and you get HER, not her exchange. She gives you email and cell phone. The best medical treatment I have ever found. If you go to see her and engage her as your doctor, please tell her that Robert Earhart referred you. And, send me an email at earhartr@aol.com to let me know if you have any questions or how things go. You will do yourself the best favor ever to make Dr. Ng your doctor for life!
