Russell E Ching, MD

Can I be sued if I say that my husband is alive only because his cardiologist moved out of the area and we had to find a new one?

Dr. Ching is everything you could want in a physician, and receives my highest recommendation. He always does what is best for his patients. He takes as much time with each appointment as the patient needs — you never feel like he is rushing out to the next examination. If Unilocal had 10 stars, I would give that as my vote. If you need a Cardiologist in the San Gabriel Valley, you won’t go wrong with Dr. Ching.

I needed to see a cardiologist for a follow up from the ER. Saw great reviews on Unilocal so called the office. No one answered so called back a later time, still no answer. I tried again another day, once in the morning, once mid afternoon, and once in the afternoon. Left voicemail for a return call. It’s now day 5 of waiting and nothing. No return call, no answer at the office. I give up on this place.

This is a 100% patient endorsement of Dr. Russell E. Ching! Dr. Ching is not motivated by money or day to day political, medical and money producing agendas… He is 100% driven to make the BEST MEDICAL DECISION FOR YOU. What a concept! He knows all his patients history (medical as well as personal) by simply recalling your name. He listens, explains, cares and shares!
Dr. Ching saved my life over 11 years ago. I was 29 and diagnosed with cardiomyopathy in the ER at Huntington Hospital with a 23% heart function while 6 months pregnant. It was a terrifying nightmare. I don’t remember many details of my 3 week hospital stay with him but I do remember feeling safe and hopeful. The fact that I left alive was validation! In the years to come I had 3 ablations while under his care and he was very involved every step of the way. His guidance steered me clear from another «specialist» whom I would have died at the hand of because that doctor was more interested in testing out procedures on me (that were ENTIRELY UNNECESARY) versus taking the time needed to truly give me the correct diagnosis and treatment through a more noninvasive approach… But that would take up more than 5 minutes of his time so scheduling procedures was much quicker. UGH… Well that’s a whole other review… Back to my endorsement of Dr. Ching…
Today I am alive and well, running, hiking and experiencing all the goodness life has to offer. All things I could have never imagined possible after my diagnosis. I love and laugh today in huge part because of Dr. Ching’s dedication to the love of humanity through healthy heart care and restoration. I heart Dr. Russell E. Ching… Trust me when I say that you will also!
Btw, he also goes on mission trips to third world countries to give of his time, talent and never ending heart care. Bringing wellness around the world… Is this man real!?! Yep he is… and he’s in Pasadena. Run don’t walk!!! Oh wait unless you’re the heart patient needing care… take a brisk walk to him instead… No running! ;)
That’s my story… Happy living because of Dr. Ching… The end.

5 star Physician ! Dr. Russell Ching has cared for my family for years and always puts the patient first. Amazing, gifted and skilled Cardiologist right in Pasadena, CA. I wasn’t sure if the 1044 Fair Oaks was correct, but it is! Google search is not the most current info.

After my move from Pasadena to Aptos, CA I have had to find new doctors and a dentist! I was extremely happy to learn that my cardiologist from Pasadena had moved to San Francisco! Dr. Russell Ching has always provided the best of care, very thoroughly answering all of my questions while maintaining a positive attitude and helping me to continue to be healthy. He is kind and compassionate and has the highest medical and personal standards. He always has time for his patients and it is apparent that he truly loves the medical profession and wants to give his patients the best of care. I would recommend him to anyone who wants a physician who treats his patients with respect and care.

I highly recommend Dr. Ching. Both he and his staff are very accommodating and friendly. He listens and he’s very accessible (through his wonderful assistant) — which I love because most doctors won’t bother answering your questions once you’re outside the office. Unlike most offices with rude admin, his team is amazing (especially Monica)! She arranged a phone consultation of my results so I won’t be billed another office visit. From that, I can just tell that the doctor and staff genuinely care for the patients and it’s not about the money. Thanks Dr. Ching! :)

Dr Ching is an awesome doctor. He is caring and takes his time with his patient. He has a great office. He has many years of experience as a cardiology. So if you need a cardiologist hurry up and call to make an appointment. great staff and service.Dr. Ching thank u for ur wonderful care!!!-Christine Liu
