I've had 3 children. All through different doctors. Not bc I'm picky. 1 stopped practicing and I moved. Sorry for the long review. I really wanted to explain how their billing process cost you more. Also, just some other things I noticed. Not too long after going to Ting, my husband and I were surprised that his rating was so high on Google. We started doing some research.

His score was lower outside Google. Actually some reviewers suggested his employees write fake reviews on Google. We saw several reviews say Dr. Ting will push you towards a c-section. This couldn't be less true in our situation. I had a c-section with my 2nd bc she was breech. My 3rd was born 19 months later so just over the 18th month mark. He was a large baby. Dr. Ting was confident that I could do a VBAC no matter what. size of the baby.

Past 40 weeks. etc. He didn't really seem concerned with risk. His answer to EVERYTHING was "you're tall and skinny". I was high risk with my first 2 pregnancies - gestational diabetes. The 2nd time it was severe. but Dr. Ting could never remember. He would just say you're good. You're tall and skinny. Also, I want to note that Dr. Ting said I would have to test my glucose 7 times a day if I had gestational diabetes. Beware if you know you're at risk.

I thought he was funny. He tries to play professional but he isn't the sensitive type like others have said. So to billing. My first 2 doctors - They told me the cost for delivery. They had already called insurance to find out my coinsurance. I picked my delivery plan and they would set up a payment plan for 20% (coinsurance) of the delivery cost.

Both doctors filed one lump sum at the end. There were very few expenses prior to delivery. For comparison purposes - my payment plan for my 2nd child - 19 months prior - same insurance - $60 Ting's billing process - I showed up the first appt. His wife says well your deductible is $2500 so we need to collect roughly $225 a month or $1500. Nothing about cost of delivery.

They bill per visit. My co pay is $60 for specialist so I was out $60 a visit. They want a urine sample every visit. Never had to do this. I get a letter from my insurance saying they billed over $1,000 for one of the urine samples so I stopped leaving one unless they asked. My husband and I confronted Dr. Ting about that particular bill and cost of delivery.

He said there was no set cost and they pretty much try to get every cent they can. That's norm but I'm guessing my previous doctors got the contract price when they called at the beginning so I wasn't in the dark. So far we're at $60 an appt vs $225. I was also out the co-pay. Imagine if you get pregnant after April. You would be pregnant one year. delivery next. Charging per visit doesn't help you at all when it comes to your deductible.

The final thing that really got me was Dr. Ting's wife received some "strange letters" from my insurance asking for a refund of $133. She did not call the insurance. I was due a $900 refund bc luckily my son was born 12.31. She called to tell me she was sending $240 bc of these letters. Get this. part of the refund requested by my ins was from that $1000 urine test we asked Ting about which he admitted they send high numbers in hopes of getting the max payout.

She said that since my insurance was requesting those funds returned, she wasn't only taking it out of my money but she was also keeping the amount my insurance had them write off originally. So we went from $900 to $240 bc they wanted $133 returned. I called my insurance company and they said they sent the wrong tax ID. I called and left a message for his wife.

I never heard back but I received my $900 in the mail. His wife is unprofessional and will talk to you about your business while you're in the waiting room. She seems nice but unequipped for the job. She got very flustered when I questioned about the situation above.

Dr Ting and the staff are amazing. You won't find a better OBGYN than Dr. Ting. He is kind and he cares, he is funny and will sit and talk with you. I've been going to him for 5 years and recommend him to EVERYONE! I would give 10 stars if I could. You will not regret coming to see him.

Highly recommend Dr. Ting and his team. My wife and I went to him through the pregnancy of our daughter. He is so funny and very nice. Being in the LGBT community, we were very nervous about picking an OBGYN. We are sooo glad we chose Dr. Ting. He made us very comfortable throughout the whole pregnancy and delivery. He was very attentive in the delivery room, and did everything he could to make my wife comfortable.

We could tell he really cares about his patient's and their babies. His staff at the office is amazing too. Makayla is very sweet and always greeted us with a smile. Overall, outstanding job from this doctor and all staff that we had contact with. Thank you all for a wonderful experience. Jessica, Kera, and Baby Sophia Shirley

Dr. Ting and his staff treated us amazingly. By far the best Doctors office I've ever been to. They made it easier to enjoy my entire pregnancy with no worries. For a first time mom that was extremely important.

Dr Ting knows his medicine 110%! If you ever need anything, all you have to do is call him. If he doesn't call back, he's delivering a child or in surgery saving a child. He's a wonderful person and so is his wife! His staff are so nice and never make you feel uncomfortable. He will only push you to make sure you and your child are safe and healthy!

He has humor and loves to make sure you leave with a smile. He delivered my daughter and will be delivering my son July 2021! I always recommend people to him he's this amazing. He always remembers who his patients are as well! I could go on, but I would be writing a book lol.

Dr Ting was the best! Although sadly he wasn't able to deliver my 1st due to family emergency the first thing he did when he got back was to come and make sure I was okay. He was able to deliver my 2nd child and he was also amazing then. He came in at 520 the next morning to check up on me and to tell me that the baby looked like me lol I agreed and he said being his funny self that the baby will change lol and if we had our oldest son at appointments he would always interact with him. He's the best of the best!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Dr. Ting and his nurses are all absolutely amazing! He always listened to my concerns, and always made me feel comfortable. He always assured me my labor would go well when I was beyond terrified. My labor experience was wonderful as well! I most definitely recommend Dr. Ting to anybody!
