    Dr. Cheng is the most outstanding internist that has ever cared for me. His knowledge is remarkable. If necessary, he will check a reference and share the screen/information with me. He comes into the exam room prepared for seeing me with items he wants to follow up on and always makes sure any new concerns of mine are covered, and checks to make sure he's addressed them all. I have referred a number of friends to Dr. Cheng. He is an outstanding member of the UCSF faculty and general internal medicine providers.
