      Dr. Ng was incredible. I came from another dermatology office that didn't care to take the time to explain my diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Ng ensured I knew every step, and took time to answer my questions and to ease my concerns. She was kind, thorough, and patient. I'm very grateful for my care to have been put in her hands.
