“Dr. Wang spent 45 minutes on my first visit going through every medication I was on and why. Nobody at my old clinic had ever done that. By visit three he knew my kids' names.”
Dr. John Wang, MD
Stanford-trained, board-certified in family medicine, 20+ years across primary care and complex chronic disease. Co-founded Linden in 2018 to bring back 60-minute visits and physician continuity.
About
A clinician who runs his own patient list.
Dr. Wang spent twenty years inside large hospital networks before co-founding Linden in 2018. He saw appointment slots shrink from 30 minutes to 7 and decided primary care could not survive the squeeze without a different operating model. So he built one.
His clinical interests are cardiometabolic health, chronic disease management, and the kind of comprehensive annual exams that have largely disappeared from corporate medicine. He sees newborns through grandparents — when a family chooses him, they tend to stay for decades.
Patients describe him as direct, patient, and unusually willing to say “I don't know yet, let's find out together.”
Areas of focus
What Dr. Wang treats most.
He sees the full breadth of primary care. These four areas account for about 70% of his weekly clinical work.
-
01
Cardiometabolic health
Cholesterol, blood pressure, pre-diabetes, and diabetes. Long-term titration of statins and antihypertensives, with regular labs and personalised lifestyle plans.
-
02
Annual physicals
60-minute comprehensive preventive exams with full screening labs, age-appropriate cancer screenings, and a written one-page care plan to your patient portal.
-
03
Chronic disease
Thyroid, lipid disorders, hypertension, and complex multi-condition cases that don't fit a 15-minute slot. Continuous care with the same clinician at every visit.
-
04
Second-opinion consults
Reviewing diagnostics, medication lists, and treatment plans from outside specialists. Plain-language translation of what the data says and what to do next.
