Patient Reviews
Aug 18, 2023
Dr. Michaela Shao and his team were helpful, courteous, and informative; and the treatment and surgeries they provided were effective. I went to Dr. Shao because of a wound on my right leg. He saw that my left leg needed treatment, recommended surgery to correct the problem, and provided the surgery with skill and care. I recommend him highly.
