Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Dr. Zhong was wonderful. One of the most personal and human health check up sessions I have ever had. Usually in my past, a yearly exam is dry, in and out, with little interaction with the doctor. But Dr. Zhong goes above and beyond in discussing about my health and any concerns I had. It felt like talking to a family member that I could trust.

Dr Zhong was friendly, professional & seemed very concerned about my current problem. This was the 1st time to see her & I want her to be my primary doctor. Dr Zhong was very thorough and asked questions, and answered all my questions.I left feeling very confident with her recommendations to help with my left knee pain. Also, we discussed a follow-up & about a recheck on my blood sugar. The previous physician took me off my diabetes medication as I had it under control with diet. But future blood work is needed to make the diabetes is still good & she recognized that. I really like her.

I never write reviews but I had to give Dr Zhong credit for how my visit went with her. Dr Zhong listened to me and discussed solutions to every problem I had. She sent in orders for me to see specialist without me asking or begging for help. She was so personable and pleasant to talk to. I have had providers that would not address my issues and refused to treat me. I am so glad that I met Dr.Zhong and I am happy she is my primary provider.
