Patient Reviews
Jun 13, 2019
I have spent the last 15 years in chronic pain. At first Dr's blew me off stating it was from sitting at a computer. Once i was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, Dr's saw that diagnosis and stopped looking for what was really going on. Dr Chu is the first Dr that spent so much time with me, talking about my symptoms and looking at my back and my movements. I am so grateful for being referred to him. He takes plenty of time with you, is so compassionate and understanding. Never feel judged. Great great Dr!
