Nov 09, 2024
I developed signs of wet AMD. Dr Chang's office got me an appointment within days of my call. I was quite nervous about the whole situation but Dr Chang was very knowledgeable. After all the testing and scans he sat with me and explained everything about my prognosis and the treatment. The treatment consists of medication being injected into each eye. Dr Chang explained every step of the treatment process and made sure I was comfortable with the process. We've had great success with the treatments and my wet AMD is under control. In conclusion I would recommend Dr Chang because he is an excellent doctor.
