Kevin Wong, MD

I have been seeing Dr Wong on and off for about 10 years. I love seeing Dr Wong. He is a very nice physician. I don’t have anything negative to say about Dr Wong. He can offer same day appointments. Takes the time to listen to my issues. I feel very comfortable with him. I just enjoy every visit.

My grand Father has been seeing this Doctor because his PCP retired, I called him to ask him about the reason he was ordering another test after a scan, I honestly couldn’t understand his handwriting, he called me back saying «everything is there, maybe if you read the results will help?! in a really condescending way, Seriously?! I totally agree with previous reviews and understand the frustrating of some patients like the incident on the news. horrible patient care. Rude. And his English is horrible over the phone and handwriting worst !! Half start to his unprofessional services.

I have been going to Dr. Wong for about 6 months he is really nice and I never have to wait as soon as I get there they room me. I really don’t have nothing bad to say and I don’t know why all the negative comments he’s great.

I was just looking for his number when this came up. I was shocked to see the negative reviews. I have been to Kevin before. All good. I was hoping for a appointment tomorrow. That wasn’t possible but he was able to get me in the same day as my call! He was able to look at my problem I was concerned about and come up with a great solution.
I am not looking for someone to make me excited about going to the doctor just someone to help me out and Kevin did that perfectly this time as well as the last time.
His mellow attitude is what I like. I don’t want to go to a sales man. I will keep him as my doctor. I don’t usually do Unilocal reviews but seeing the negative ones I wanted to point out there are probably many happy ones that don’t come here to say so.

Moving into San Mateo county, my parents needed to find a new doctor because of their insurance. I met dr. Wong for the first time, I was so surprised.
He was so dull and made us feel unwelcome. He talked like a robot with no emotion. He also mention to me that it’s very hard to find a doctor with their insurance. I wonder was that an insult? He made my mom feel uncomfortable asking why was she here because she doesn’t have much health issue. She’s old so of course she still need to be checked out. I spent three hours there translating for both parents. That took forever. I’m gonna have to try dr. Lai. Than if this doesn’t work out, another search I have to just do.

Oh! Just so you know, this is the same doctor who a patient shot at not less than a year ago! Saw it on the breaking news the location of the shooting and said to my family I’ll get it’s Dr. Wong. Lo and behold, the next day’s news reported the disgruntled patient shot at Dr. Wong. Need I say more?!?

Doctor Wong is a very knowledgeable physician. If you are only expecting to hear what you want, then he may not be for you. I’ve had good experience with him. Yes, he is always busy, but always calls me back. He’s also given me samples of drugs to try before committing to expensive prescriptions, as I have bad insurance coverage. No this office is not club med, but then I came here for medical treatment, not a facial. Dr. Wong is always seen running around often skipping lunch for his patients. His partner John is also a very good Doctor who has filled in when Dr. Wong is not around. If you want to be pampered, then go to one of those Marin offices with «annual practice participation fees». Not kidding!

Worst Doc in my life!!! Don’t GO
My dad had medicine side effects because he gave my dad some new medicine (maybe normal to others, but this is our first time), so I called the front desk and ask for help. but Kevin Wong never call us back. NEVER ~
and Office staff are unprofessional … and rude

Tried this medical office 1^st time after my MD of 10+ years had retired and has bad health issues.
This office is disorganized… as confirmed by a simple google search.
My annual physical was horrid, MD Wong is quick to assess, nice bed side manners. BUT it took this office 3 phone calls and 3+ weeks to follow up on blood test results (something I was worried about).
If you go to their office, the 1^st thing you will notice is that walls full of papers… which explains a simple misplaced bloodwork/​lab results. Stacks of paper and medical records on the FLOOR!
Its not MD Wong I dont like, but the way how their office is ran.
Not to mention the lack compassion nor do I feel that they are actualy hearing me and responding to my needs.
Dr. Wong office WONT even call a prescription into Target pharmacy located ½ mile away. Requiring me to come in and «pick it up»… wtf.
Calls from MD Wong: «I dont have those records… let me get back to you on that»
Wait a week, call again, and get another response with similar outcomes (repeat again).
I miss my old MD (1 for 20 years, another for 10)…
These young MDs just are out for a buck, and you are just a stack of paper they have to deal with.
Ever heard of computer medical records???

Dr. Kevin Wong is a great Doctor. He takes his time with me and always makes sure his patients get the best medication & care. I have been seeing him for about 3yrs & he accepts most major insurances like Health Plan of San Mateo, United, Federal, & the Blues. He even speaks Cantonese & does weight loss. I don’t really go there for the staff but, even when I’m having a bad day they make me smile & I never have to pay copay anyways. Oh yea, he has the largest most comfortable waiting room in Daly City!

Great doctor and this place could improve if the staff was more compassionate to patients and provide them with better help. Wait time and parking is great

Dr. Wong may run late sometimes. It’s because he actually returns phone calls from patients asking for advices and answer any questions arise from his visiting patients. I also don’t mind the wait — because I know he’ll spend the same amount of time with me.
When I had to do labs, Dr. Wong actually called with the results. I haven’t run into any doctors who do that yet (unless you call in yourself).

Apparently *someone* complained about my review and also a third review that agreed with mine so that they were removed. I find it suspicious when someone writes a review of a doctor in Daly City and lives quite a ways away, but lets give them the benefit of the doubt that they are actually an unbiased, unrelated patient of Dr. Wong who drives 40 miles to visit Dr. Wong due to work or whatnot. Here is the original review with portions redacted:
Not that great. Long waits in the office with unprofessional secretaries talking about weddings. I sat for 50 minutes in the waiting room listening to one receptionist talk non-​stop in her high-​pitched, high-​volume voice. Why would you set up an appointment when you can’t see the patient until an hour after the appointment time? Set the friggin appointment up at the right time! And they let the phone ring if they’re in the middle of the good part in their story. Why do they have 2 – 3 people standing around doing nothing? And no apologies from the doctor. He’s brusque and doesn’t really seem to care. It might be strep throat, but we’d have to take a culture and it’ll be 3 days before we get the labs back. If it is strep, we’ll have you come in again for meds. What?! Yeah, you want me to come in again and pay $$ the copay twice for the same thing and wait for an hour listening to your screeching secretary? No. Find another doctor. Or they need to find another secretary. And no, this isn’t a one time thing, the wait and chattering happen every time I go in.

Excellent internal medicine physician! He is very up to date on the latest data on medicine. He is very thorough and makes great clinical decisions. He can also speak Chinese for those who need a bilingual doctor.
