Patients appreciate
Dr. Scott Tong receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients who consistently praise his exceptional listening skills and attentiveness to their concerns. Patients frequently describe him as professional, caring, and genuinely interested in their health and well-being. His bedside manner is highlighted as excellent, with many noting he makes them feel valued rather than like "just a number." Patients appreciate that he takes time to thoroughly explain medical issues in understandable terms, provides clear treatment plans, and addresses all questions comprehensively. His efficiency is noted positively, with many commenting on minimal wait times and prompt follow-up through the patient portal. Several patients describe him as the best doctor they've ever had, with particular appreciation for his non-judgmental approach to sensitive health issues and his ability to build genuine rapport with patients.
Patients also share
A small number of patients noted areas for improvement, primarily centered around visit brevity and feeling rushed during appointments. Several reviews mentioned extremely brief interactions where the visit felt perfunctory or hurried, with one patient reporting less than five minutes of actual face time with the doctor. A few patients felt Dr. Tong seemed rushed during their visits, though they still received adequate care. One patient experienced an administrative issue with lab work being sent to the wrong location, requiring repeat blood work. Two reviews mentioned that while Dr. Tong was professional, he could be more personable or caring, with one patient describing him as "not so much a people person" and another suggesting he needs to show more concern for older adults. One patient reported a negative virtual visit experience where they felt Dr. Tong was rude and unprofessional due to video connection issues.
