Dr. Hsu is an amazing doctor. He really listened to me and he asked me questions about anything else that might be troubling me . He wanted to know if I have any questions about anything at all. I really liked that. Sam was also amazing. I feel much better about my issues.
February 11, 2022Mary Carol A.Verified patient
Dr. Hsu is, hands down, one of the best doctors I've ever seen. He's highly professional, personable, and his staff goes above and beyond. My situation was very obscure and Dr. Hsu made sure that I was in great hands. One week later, I was fully recovered and I am very grateful to Dr. Hsu and his team for looking after my case so closely.
February 2, 2022Kristin R.Verified patient
Dr. Hsu was excellent! He took the time to hear me out, was compassionate, and resolved my issues! I did not experience any wait time.
December 15, 2021Aditi K.Verified patientVideo visit
Staff was very helpful and kind even though I was late for appointment. The nurse who helped me was very knowledgeable about my condition as her own parents had the same. Dr. Hsu diagnosed and looked at my condition very thoroughly and wanted to double check everything before prescribing me any medicine. Overall better than anything Amazon ever brought me :)
December 8, 2021Han T.Verified patient
I came in for rashes caused by severe allergy reactions. The doctor suggest keep using the medication I bought over the counter but it doesn't seem to improve at all. It got even itchier. The next day I went to urgent care and the doctor there prescribed me 7-day steroid tablets, it then finally ease the symptom a little bit.

this doctor did not even talk to me for five minutes before suggesting a biopsy. he failed to listen, had zero follow up questions, and showed no curiosity to try to understand my situation.
i would actually like a refund. this was unacceptable. trust me, don't see this doctor.

They texted & emailed me to fill out their office’s online portal to create an account. They even gave me a phone call to remind me. I really wish ZocDoc could load my data into the office’s portal for me. When I arrived the office was kind enough to remind me fill out the online form (I guess when I submitted it before it didn’t load or save.) I would come here again. :)

Dr. Hsu was great. The office accommodated my appointment even though it hadn't shown in the system. I had an issue that needed pretty immediate attention and they took care of it right away.
Dr. Hsu is super friendly and is happy to answer all questions. He offered a couple of treatment options and explained both clearly. He also explained follow up treatment options that he would be able to do.
He then treated my issue with the help of super professional and lovely nurse (sorry can't remember her name). Both were professional, kind and talked through what they were doing.
All in all a great experience from check-in to leaving.
