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.

I met Dr. Lu for the first time recently after he performed emergency spine surgery on me on 5/28/16 (due to an abcess from a staph infection). I was very very sick, and he saved my life. I can never adequately express how grateful I am for his brilliance and expertise in doing so. He is gracious, and humble and absolutely wonderful as a surgeon. I highly recommend him as a top-notch surgeon.

Incompetent Doctor who has no knowledge in the field of neurosurgery. He caused permanent nerve damage that can never be reversed. Go to someone else.

DR. Lu was focused and took his time to explain my surgery, the details and recovery. He sat down with me in the OR and never rushed making sure I understood and walked me through the the procedure. the OR staff was reassuring and I felt in capable hands. I would recommend Dr Lu and his staff. I was however very disappointed with your nursing staff and did not feel I was taken care of. You needed more help and pain medication was always LATE. The nursing staff was rushed and no hands on care.

He performed an extremely difficult surgery sucessfully. He collaborated with numerous other surgeons and oncologists before proceeding with surgery and kept us informed about my condition and possible outcomes. He was extremely professional throughout diagnosis and surgery. His very wide smile when he came into the recovery room said it all!

Dr. Lu explained the procedure before hand and was honest about the length time to recover. During surgery he decided that what was expected and he had explained was not necessary. Consequently the surgery wasn't as extensive. His professionalism, training, and experience was exemplary.

We met Dr. Lu 9/2015 when my husband needed emergency spinal surgery. The surgery corrected the problem and Dr. Lu called me when surgery was over and was very reassuring. At the follow up visit my husband had problems related to a subdural hematoma and Dr. Lu recommended surgery to correct it. The surgery was performed and was very successful. We found Dr. Lu to be very professional and caring. He has excellent reputation. We highly recommend Dr. Lu to anyone who needs neurosurgery.
