Patient Reviews
Mar 24, 2023
My experience with Dr. Liu was excellent. I am almost a year out from a double hernia surgery. I am once again able to provide a great deal of educational volunteer work (I am a retired teacher) as well as working hard to help my family. Dr. Liu and his talented team helped me avoid being an added burden to my family during the pandemic. The hernias were serious. Dr. Liu, based on my experience, is a highly skilled, dedicated professional performing a difficult, important job with grace, courage, and honor. Thanks, and Best Wishes to Dr. Liu and his team of caring, capable professionals. In my case, I was initially afraid to exercise some months after surgery due to the severity of the hernias. I have found that light work on an exercise bike actually decreased the residual twinges of pain which were alarming me for a while. The tissue appears to need motion to heal without stiffening up due to scarring. Many Thanks to Dr. Liu and his Fine Team!
