    I greatly value that I've had the same doctor for so long now who listens with intent, gives me time to talk about concerns or general health questions, answer without judgment and ability to refer me right away among the UCSF network. For my age and per standard metrics, I'm pretty healthy!

    Dr Chang is the best when listening and my asking of questions with my health problems, explaining test results and my surgery recently, reassuring me of my health problems that come with age, I left with a happy healthy outlook in getting older.

    I've been with ucsf, this primary for 15yrs. Specially due to extreme rare disability. She has ALWAYS been compassionate, kind, never felt rushed. I've previously had BAD Dr. With attitude given in multiple areas, leaving me feeling awful.It's why she's remained my primary this many years. And, thank you Dr. CHANG

    She really only listened to the reason I was there, suggested blood work and didn't offer up follow up directions. Her after visit notes were just a listing of what I told her with no action plan. I did not feel heard or cared about.

    Aug 07, 2024
    I am so grateful for Dr Chang's care. I sustained a head injury and have had trouble recovering on several levels. She really goes beyond the call of duty on so many fronts. It would be hard to detail all of them. She is a true physician - at once caring and professional. Never dismissive. Willing to help navigate the terror that can be the healthcare system. She is what Hippocrates had in mind I think when he conceived of patient care and the patient/physician relationship.
