dr cong is amazing --she is like a doctor who is older and actually listens and answers and spends time with the patient--not like a robot doctor like most of the young ones are! Dr Cong is awesome!!

Dr. Cong took her time, listened and provided detailed and thoughtful feedback during my visit. She even took it a step further and reached out to her colleagues for a second opinion. Dr Cong exceeded expectations and went above and beyond to provide the best quality care. I don’t usually walk away with a feeling of confidence for most doctors, the Dr. Cong is the exception. I have already recommended her to other people. She obviously comes from a place of compassion, patience, and kindness.

The well-reseached approach of Dr. Cong in treating my condition of bone density in 2024 and 25 has worked most effectively for me. During our first visit last year, she explained that the bone density decrease was more noticeable in the initial two years after I stopped hormone replacement therapy. She did not rush into medication for me. Instead, she advised me in a holistic way to exercise and to increase dairy intake. My 2025 bone density test showed that several areas of my bones had an increase in density. Most importantly, my lumbar spine was normal. Her sensitivity and tailor fit treatment for me are deeply appreciated.
