Dr Liu was great throughout the whole process, initial appointment, pre-op, post-op. I hope I don’t need to ever go back but if I do I know I have a great surgeon to go back to.

Dr. Liu was very compassionate and knowledgeable about my affliction. He laid out all scenarios possible.
The wait time was overly excessive. Both in the outer waiting room and the exam room.

As usual, very great service. A little longer wait than usual, but well worth the time. Nice friendly receptionist, nice nurse, friendly X-ray technician, awesome Dr., Dr. Zefu Liu. Listens, explains, and gives you opinions. And the treatment works great.
I don't know what I could ask for that they didn't do. Nothing.
