    Dr. Ling has been my primary care provider/internist for 20 years. She is an exceptional physician - caring, knowledgeable, up-to-date, personable. Readily available and promptly replies to messages. Follows up on and integrates any medical care I've received outside of UCSF. I always feel better after seeing her, and more motivated to work extra hard to take care of my health.

    Dr. Ling gets it, covered all the bases. Excellent. The elderly patient had just had a scary fall down some stairs. Dr. Ling addressed this concern.And reviewed medications list, checked patient's foot circulation, ordered an MRI for stroke prevention etc.
