Testimonials from patients of Dr. Fong
My mom is 95 and became home bound right before Thanksgiving. Dr Fong came over the day before she was to drive to see family for holiday to see my mom at her house. She made several other home visits. She is amazing and approachable at any hour. Our family can’t thank her enough for her kindness and professionalism.
Between the insurance and a specialist whose clinic was closed, I could not get prescriptions filled. Pre-authorizations were required, which can be nightmares. Dr. Fong and Gabby stepped in and did the work others should have done.
I am grateful for their normal good efforts, but this was more.

I am 86 years old, Dr. Fong has been my primary care physician for more than 20 years.
I attribute much of my active life style to her excellent health advice and the thorough annual physical evaluations.

My recent trip to South East Asia was much more safe knowing that she verified every location to see if there were health advisories and made sure I had medications needed for our long awaited trip. Also, even when I have questions about my 102 year old mom she willing to listen. I look forward to my… See more
Dr Fong is the best! She is so easy to relate to and always professional. I’m lucky to have her and her wonderful staff in my corner when health issues come up! Thank you Dr Fong!

She wasn't always able to take a lot of time with me (that was before MDVIP) but she always took enough time with me. Her staff was always friendly, polite, on time, & very… See more
I have been seeing Dr. Karen Fong for 13 years. She is the best. I never feel rushed. She spends time talking about anything that I need to discuss.
I love Karen. She feels like a part of my family and I feel like I can be open and honest with her. It's a very special and important relationship.
I so appreciate that Dr. Fong is very prepared before my office visit. She familiarizes herself with my records and always come prepared with questions to follow-up from my previous visit. I appreciate that she has the full view of my health and is able to answer questions with consideration for my full medical condition. She has a wealth of knowledge including a strong knowledge of all the… See more
