Dr. Huang is the best doctor I have dealt with. He was personable, explained his thought process clearly and took the time to make sure he addressed everything my GP was concerned about by calling her during my appt. I can't say enough about how refreshing his bedside manner was.

Dr. Huang took his time with me. This was my first time meeting him. He is very conscientious and is evaluating the root cause of my liver problems. No doctor has ever said why and have only been treating symptoms. I am so grateful to have such a caring provider and he brings great credit to Strong. I only wish I had gone to URMC sooner. I know I am receiving the best medical care possible.

Dr. Huang was very pleasant and easy to talk to. He did not rush. He fid spend slightly more time at my appointment conversing with the new/student doctor, which I would expect, in order to offer as much learning as possible, I just would have appreciated being able to consent to that.
