Testimonials
"As evidenced by her firecracker Tik tok videos packed full of sound science, good humor, quick one-liners and obvious passion for public education, Dr. Tang is both an engaging presenter and one of the most important voices for women's health on the internet right now. The importance of her voice for both patients and providers alike cannot be overstated. Her soundbites are high-yield and also digestible, and her videos are always worth pausing your scroll for. I cannot recommend her highly enough!"
