Patient Reviews
Nov 04, 2024
Dr. Chou was quite thorough in reviewing the X-ray and MRI he received from other sources. He showed me exactly where the damage was so that I could make my own health decisions. When I went back for the 6-week follow-up X-ray, his office called back within the half hour to explain my situation; he had checked the X-ray as soon as he received word of it. (No need to see him that time.)Cool competence as well as an excellent 'bedside manner'.
