Patient Reviews
May 11, 2023
My family & I have been patients of Dr. Chu since 2014 & find him to be very caring, patient, & knowledgeable. He teaches as he provides care & listens attentively. He gives as much time as his patients need &, when necessary, does not limit the appt to just one issue. He is also diligent about responding to patient messages sent to him via the patient portal. This type of care does often require longer waits in the waiting/exam room, but the wait is well worth it!I consider him to be an excellent physician!
