Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Skilled surgeon
Dr Chou is an honest surgeon that won’t operate unless you need it. He offered me pain management and PT then surgery. Very happy with surgical results. I am now pain free. Surgery can be scary but was the ultimate fix for me.

Miracle I had been lived with the spinal disc herniation for 16 years. I visited many doctors, physical therapists, and orthopedists for the treatment but I couldn't feel better. The worst thing is that the left part of my body had the symptom of paralysis. Finally, I met Dr. Chou, he is the best doctor who I have ever met. Besides a professionally excellent skill, he's so kind and patient. I have to say that he has brought the miracle to me and my family. I would like to recommend him to anyone

Dr. Chou, Is the best Surgon around. He saved My life. I had Brian stem tumor surgery and it was attached to My Brian. He thought that The Best that could be done was to trim the tube back. When he got into My Brian he find the tube was loose And took two extra hours and was able to remove it, freeing Me of it growing back. This Man is A hero and truly will do his Best to try to cure you as he did me.. tumor free And tube healed over. I truly believe any others Surgon would of trimmed it back.

This was the best experience I could have hoped for. The office staff made this process completely seamless, and Dr. Chou is wonderful from start to finish. He prepared me for my surgery, not only in terms of what the surgery would be like, but how the recovery would go as well. His bedside manner is wonderful, and his skill as a surgeon is second to none. If you are contemplating spinal surgery, consult with Dr. Chou. Your decision will be easy after that! So Happy I Did!

Dr Chou and his staff are wonderful. Its hard to put into words our experience with him and his staff. They are caring, and most thorough which is the part that most impressed me. They cover all their bases and do an excellent job. They were with us from the beginning to the end, always making sure we are doing all right. Dr Chou is an awesome doctor, and most specially because he has people like Rita, and Laura who are also an excellent support system. Thanks, Dr Chou.
