Wang Chia-Lien

I have always LOVED Dr. Wang. but now that I’m having my first baby with her as my OB I’m a little disappointed. She is extremely intelligent and an awesome Dr., but she isn’t very informative. She always seems rushed and if you don’t have questions ready for her she is in and out of the room in a blink of an eye! She doesn’t give any extra information if you don’t know the questions to ask. I have Gestational Diabetes and I received a 1 min phone call that said to research on the Internet!?! For a First Time Mom that can be a scary thing! But with any Dr these Days I feel you have to choose between Smart and lesser of Bedside Manner or Great Bedside Manner and not so smart. Dr. Wang is one of the Doctors that are extremely smart, but weak on bedside manner. And when it comes to my baby I feel like I want someone that will get my baby here safely rather than someone who can make me feel better. One other thing that I’m on the fence about with Dr. Wang is her willingness to pass out c sections and inductions. I believe when a baby is ready it will come (with some limits like complications that seriously may hurt the mom or baby’s health). Even though I have GD my blood pressure is fine, the baby isn’t to big, and there are no other complications… I don’t believe in jerking the baby out just because its convenient! And she is very insistent with not letting me go over my due date. I believe Dr. Wang is a great Doctor and very friendly! I just wish she was a little more informative and personal with her patience.

I love Dr. Wang, but I never wait less than two hours to see her. It is frustrating to wait that long and only have five minutes of the doctor’s time. She is always very rushed seemingly, however I do like her so I continue to go to her.
