Man-Kit Leung, MD

I have throat pain for 5days and couldn’t wait until some office give me appointment day. So I just walked in office and luckily got chance to see doctor. He looked my ear, nose and throat to see if I have other infection. He recommended cheaper antibiotics because I already spent pretty good money cuz I don’t have insurance. I liked this doctor! Helped me a lot.

My entire family sees this doctor. He is highly knowledgeable, professional and caring.

This office is known to have horrible customer service. It is not easy to get an appointment because of the stuck up receptionist. I came in here on time and was told my appointment was cancelled. Then the receptionist prevented me from seeing the doctor by making my barrier to seeing him extremely high. I needed to provide a physical medical card, I had to see him after 2 other patients, etc. I finally gave up and left. Never coming back here again.

Great Doctor. I need to see an ENT specialist, and I was from out of town. They got me in in one day. When I arrived I was seen by Dr. Leung right on time. He was very knowledgable and helpful. I would recommend him to anyone.

I developed a terrible allergy, couldn’t breathe, constant itching, running nose, sneezing so much that my back would hurt, my nostrals were raw, I didn’t know what to do, my treating physician told me to take over the counter meds, called benadryl, it didn’t work. I called my treating physician and told me to take nitekol, it only put me to sleep.
I decided to seek help for an specialist, so I found Dr. Leung.
I didn’t have to wait hours to see him and when he examined me, he was so professional and explained in detail what I had. He has a wonderful personality, humble, caring and gentle.
My allergy has diminshed with the medications Dr. Leung prescribed and I thank him so much. I recommend Dr. Leung he is awesome.

Doctor Leung is the best I’ve seen the best doctors in the United States, his professionalism, patience, let me admire.

Dr. Leung and his staff were able to fit me in at a moment’s notice due to uncontrollable nosebleed. I went straight to an ENT since a GP would have referred me to one anyway. His office on Bush Street is not far from my office, but today, he was practicing in his Chinatown office on Pacific. Front desk very courteous and professional, both of them. Doc and staff are fluent in English and Cantonese. The staff got me in the exam room imediately and Doc saw me within 5 minutes. In his thorough exam and treatment, he clearly explained every step of the way. He recommended if the problem persisted that a different procedure could be done but not this time to avoid the cost. Seemed like more questions concerning insurance than other MD’s I’ve seen which makes me think the practice may have gotten stiffed. Likewise, as another reviewer said, it helps to curb the surprise costs.
Genuinely a great bedside manner and I felt the treatment was made with great dignity. He’s Board Certified, UCSF educated, Stanford residency (despite bleeding all over my keyboad, I was able to google him before making the call). I am very impressed with the care provided.

This doctor is incredible — WOW! WOW! WOW!
I had an emergency issue where I couldn’t swallow and I felt like there was a lump in my throat. I have small tumors in my thyroid so I thought maybe they were impinging my windpipe or something. Long story short, my MD sent me to Dr. Leung and his office got me in right away.
I was a little concerned as his office was in the middle of Chinatown and in a building where some of the offices had an unsavory quality. However, his actual office is very nice. Further, I appreciate that he doesn’t just have a fancy office downtown but also keeps one in Chinatown so that he can serve his own ethnic community there as well!
One of Dr. Leung’s front desk staff was not friendly (except when he was standing right near them) and I felt they were kind of rude at some points, but it wasn’t a big deal.
Onto Dr. Leung himself — he is awesome! He is patient, kind and communicates well. He talked to me in layperson’s terms. He also warned me about coverage for insurance BEFORE he does in-​office procedures… he doesn’t wait for me to be surprised until later, like most other doctors I have received services from.
Dr. Leung called me several times after my visit with him to make sure I was feeling ok and check up on me. I felt that he truly cared about me as a patient. He doesn’t have the pretentious attitude I would expect from a doctor who has AMAZING credentials from Ivy League Schools and many recognitions in the medical community.
Thank you Dr. Leung! You really eased me at a very scary, painful time.

I cannot believe that this doctor could have such high reviews. I always think that the people who write «I joined Unilocal just so I could write this bad review» must be exaggerating, but here I am doing it.
My first visit, I waited for half an hour, only to receive about 5 minutes of his time, during all of which he kept trying to get out of the room. I’d have to blurt out the next question each time he was headed for the door. He made me feel like I was completely inconveniencing him by asking questions when, I would learn later, his office would charge me $ 250 for those 5 minutes (post-​insurance I will owe $ 130). When I said I was thinking of seeing an allergist too, he pushed on me that HE does allergy testing, and I must wait a month to see HIM to do it.
Which brings me to the next part of the story. When I came in for my allergy testing, and NP conducted the whole testing. She was extremely informative, knowledgeable, and patient, and I would have paid good money to see just her. She helped get me my results, and we talked them over. Then, she said, we could have a nice consultation with Dr. Leung. Then begins the part where I sit awkwardly in a chair for 20 minutes while the NP goes out to ask Dr. Leung to please come speak with me NO LESS THAN 4 times. Finally, he comes in, and this meeting could not have been more than 2 minutes. It was basically «ok you’re allergic to these things… you can get allergy shots with me for 5 years if you want» and tried to escape. I did my best to ask as many questions, but he so clearly didn’t want to be speaking with me that I eventually gave up.
Thankfully, the NP gave me some good info, so I am on the way to dealing with my allergies without the unnecessary shots. Dr. Leung never gave me the chance to really ask questions and learn my story, which probably would have given him different suggestions, and he never made me feel like he even wanted to help me.
I don’t know if he just has too many patients or not, but I would never recommend this guy to any family member or friend, ever. I have a primary care doctor, an eye doctor, a periodontist, and a dentist that were all the first people I went to in their fields and I’ve appreciated all of them, so I’m not some crazy never-​going-​to-​be-​happy person. To me this guy seems to be after having the most patients so that he can get the most $$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Incredibly nice, professional and knowledgeable.

I had vertigo for two days and I couldn’t find anyone that would see me soon. Dr. Leung fit me in his schedule within the hour. The front desk personnel was very helpful and friendly, she even told me where to park! Dr. Leung saw me as soon as I filled out the paperwork (which was way more simple that I’m used to filling at a medical office). I was seen within 10 minutes of stepping into the office. He examined me throughly and got me on my way. His bedside manners were great. I was very happy with the treatment I received at his office. So glad I decided to go straight to an ENT.

Dr. Leung was great. He was courteous, knowledgeable, and straight to the point. I would definitely recommend him. The only reason that I’m not assigning 5 stars is that my appt was at 1:30 pm and I didn’t see Dr. Leung until ~2:00 pm.

Dr. Leung’s work on relieving pressure from my sinuses was nothing short of an absolute miracle. I went from not being able to smell (literally — I had no sense of smell), not being able to breath through my nose, and having to carry around a box of tissues (no exaggeration — a whole %$#@ box) everywhere because my nose was constantly running, to being 100% back to normal. I can smell, I can breath through one nostril at a time even and haven’t opened a box of tissues in the three months since he operated on me. He did warn me that this relief may not last forever, but as long as he’s around, I know I’m in good hands. This doctor is amazing.
