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.

Dr. Chu is wonderful. As are the Nurse Practitionees. That is where it ends. The staff needs a major overhaul. Wont return phone calls, rude, condescending, and decides personally if you deserve to have your messages relayed to the physician. I am taking my care elsewhere.

Dr. Chu is a wonderful human being who treats his patients with great respect and concern. He takes time to listen to your concerns, responds appropriately to those, orders the correct tests to further determine the best course of treatment and prescribes the proper medications when necessary.

Dr. Jack – Feb 08, 2020
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Chu?
Dr. Chu is ok, he seem to dismiss some issue that I had and I didn't like that. His nurses are rude and never return your call in a timely fashion. I put in for a refill on the portal and it took five days to fill and I had to call to find out what was going on. If you need a referral you would have to make an appt and pay a copay for that if you don't mention it at the time of your appt. If you need records sent somewhere you will have to come in to sign a release EVERYTIME. His nurses suck!!!

He is very kind, and clearly loves to practice medicine. However, both my husband and I have had unique health issues that he has dismissed. In addition, communication with the office is very poor. They try to use the patient portal to substitute for the phone. The nurses that call me are always grumpy and have terrible bedside manner.

Dr Chu once spent 30 minutes with me in the patient room discussing my symptoms. He is the only thorough and caring MD I have ever been to
