Verified SHC Patient

She was very personable and pleasant . She asked many questions regarding my health and my concerns about long Covid symptoms that I have been experiencing. She offered some suggestions to try to provide some answers for my symptoms such as seeking a sleep study to see if my fatigue is related to poor quality of sleep . To have some physical therapy to strengthen my core . Also to have a thyroid test to see if that may be contributing to my fatigue.

Verified SHC Patient

Dr. Linda Geng is very thorough when going over medical history. She took the time to understand my experience with my illness(es), documented my symptoms with good notes, and addressed all of my questions. She speaks quickly in order to get a lot of information into a relatively short period of time, but is also an excellent listener. The appointment was organized very well. I did not feel pressured to try anything new--she wanted me to feel comfortable with my decision regarding a new medication, and encouraged me to read the literature she sent before trying it. I appreciated her being forthright about a potential lab test, saying that the doctors don't know exactly how to decipher the results. Overall, an excellent appointment with Dr. Geng, who I found to be a very sympathetic and kind provider. Thank you, Dr. Geng!
