Wang Ida, MD

when i walked up to the desk and said hi to the girl sitting there… she never even looked up. lol dr wang is a nice doctor… BUT…i’ve been there twice… and both times waited at least TWO hours before i saw her and got out of there… and that is with an appointment! thank god i wasn’t sick. doctor kept asking me why i didn’t take all these yearly tests… and i wanted to say i didn’t have the time to go back to see her for test results! no doctor is worth that ridiculous wait! not going back…

Took my mom here and we waited over 45 minutes with an appointment. Asked the receptionist but they couldn’t give me an estimated wait time.
My mom told me that she waited over 2 hours one time with appointment. They really need to get organized and do a better job at scheduling appointment.
Stop taking advantage of the elderly.

I really like Dr. Wang and the care she provides, but that only comes after a wait of at least an hour WITH AN APPOINTMENT. In all the times I’ve seen her, I don’t think I’ve ever waited less than an hour. During a walk-​in without an appointment, expect to spend 2 hours or more in the waiting room. I can understand a long wait during a walk-​in, but having to wait more than 60 minutes WITH an appointment and this happens EVERY time? It’s ridiculous. At my kids’ doctor, the wait has never been more than 20 minutes and more often than not, it’s less than 5 minutes. Even without an appointment, they’re seen in less than 30 – 45 minutes! And my kids’ doctor is great and not rushing us (that I can perceive).
Because of this ridiculous waiting time, I found myself not seeing the doctor as often as I should, so I finally switched after a decade with Dr. Wang. It’s a testament to her that I waited so long and I was genuinely sad to switch because Dr. Wang is a kind and caring person and a great doctor.
If you have ample time on your hands and don’t mind waiting a long time for good care, then you won’t go wrong with Dr. Wang. She really is an excellent doctor if you can handle the wait. But if you have better things to do than spend your time in a waiting room, try another doctor. I’m still feeling out my new doctor, but I have no complaints so far, especially not about the wait, which has been less than 10 minutes every time.
If you see this, Dr. Wang, thank you so much for the care during the past 10 years, but I am getting older and need to see a doctor more often now, not less, and I just can no longer tolerate the consistently long waiting time at your office.

I changed doctors after 14+ years with Dr. Wang. Mainly because of her unavailability, the no walk-​in policy, the wait, the mgmt, staff and interns. For the handful of times I saw Ida, she has always made me feel better, but it was time to move on…

Dr. Ida Wang was awesome. Very professional and easy to talk to. And she was very knowledge, patient and friendly. She didn’t rush me out to see the next patient and she answered my questions very thorough, explains things clearly, also office staff efficient and friendly.
DR. IDA WANG IS A GOOD PERSON, AN EXCELLENT DOCTOR.

I came here after an allergic reaction to medication that I had been taking. Dr Wang was great along with the staff! She was able to prescribe me medicine that instantly made me feel better, she is a savior!
*Check my tips for location address and updated work hours! :)

I’ve been come to see Dr Wang for the last 25+ years, she was great, she’s still great, but the staff getting un-​organized, unfriendly, too busy not to pickup phone, and her patients has to wait longer, last time I came without an appointment and I arrived at about 9:00am (actually 8:50am, but they don’t open ’til 9am), I can’t leave until 1pm, then xray blood test, it become my whole day event now. If I need to see her in urgent, even I have appointment, which I have to make about 2 month in advance, I still have to wait 30−45min before I can see Dr. Wang. If we already build trust relational ship between me & the Dr. Wang, please do not throw me to another Dr. Ling, be honest, I would rather see Dr. Wang. But due to the wait time and the office staffs, I have no choice but switch to a different Dr. I can’t predict if I’m going to be sick in 2 months so I can make an appointment 2 months in advance, or I really don’t like to site in your office for 4 hr then I get sicker. Thanks Dr. Wang for your care in the last 25+ year.

Never been to Dr. Wang office (yet) but it’s frustrating over the phone cause they don’t update their service hours!
I called a bunch of time and they finally picked up and by this time I was mad I told the lady whom picked up the phone and knowing I was angry she hung me up!
What kind of employee Dr. Wang hired?!

valerie is amazing she has gone above and beyond the call of duty for me she is so patient so kind and so understanding and most helpful i am so glad i have her to help me with all my medical needs
sincerely amalitsa

I’ve visited this office a couple of times and during my visits, Dr. Wang made me feel comfortable and always had a slight sense of humor. One of her staffs (I forgot her name), but she was very accommodating and approachable which helped me feel relaxed when explaining my issue. However, Dr. Wang referred me to another doctor (her friend) and when I went to the other doctor, she told me I was perfectly fine vs what Dr. Wang thought… –_​-​’ Talk about a life scare.
The last time I went to the office was to dispute an expensive bill that I was not informed of. I actually called them and because I was so frustrated-​and I’m sure-​I scared the receptionist that he hand the phone to an older male. They asked me to e-​mail them my invoice but I ended up showing up in person to get the issue resolved quicker and they eventually reduced my bill. I haven’t been back since.

Though we had wrong address due to internet not being updated, and had to wait almost 1 ½ hours for my 90 year old mother to be seen, and office staff not very friendly «hello» I have an appointment?!”…Dr. Ida Wang was very very nice, thorough and kind. She went through mom’s meds, asked the right questions and has a very sincere caring attitude. Once she was finally in the exam room with us, we did not feel rushed.
UPDATE ALL INTERNET REFERENCES TO THIS DR.‘S ADDRESS!!! She is at 20 E. Huntington Dr. Arcadia NOT ON LIVE OAK AVE. Phone number correct.

I think things have changed since last year, b/​c the last 2 reviews do not reflect my experiences at Dr. Wang’s Office.
The front desk staff is terrible and unfriendly. They put you on hold forever while the line ends up dropping. When you try and call back the line is just busy. The wait is ridiculous, even when you have an appointment. I waited over 45mins before I saw a doctor even though I had an appointment. The wait for a walk-​in is about 2−3hrs. The office is always overcrowded with patients.
I’ve gone twice, thinking it was just a bad day, but I tried making a 3^rd appointment and its over 2 weeks for another opening. I haven’t met Dr. Wang yet, so I can’t review her. The other doctor that saw me, told me she was «too busy» so she took care of me. She was nice but evaluated my problems for maybe 5 – 10 mins and let me go. I felt like my time there was a waste of my day. Currently searching for a new Dr.

I switched doctors and found Dr Wang. Her Staffs are very nice and informative. Dr Wang takes the time to explain things to you thoroughly and recommend things that you actually need. All her referrals were great and facilities were clean unlike other places I’ve been to.
She also has another doctor that works with her when she’s out. I believe her name is Dr. Ling. She is just as good as Dr. Wang. I was very comfortable with both doctors and would highly recommend others.
Dr Wang was referred to me as OB/​GYN doctor; I was extremely happy when i found out that she was also a family doctor.

Definitely the best Internist I’ve ever had. I have referred my mother, mother-​in-​law, mother-​in-​laws friend, sister-​in-​laws friend, husband, sister and friend…7 people total and they each only have nice compliments about this physician. I work with MDs all day in many hosptials and she truly is the best. She takes the time to make sure you are taken care of. Take the time to listen to what you have to say instead of rushing you like most MDs these days. Does follow-​up calls to your home to see how you are doing after a office visit. Which MD’s do you find that do that these days? I would highly recommend her to anyone!
