      Dr. Liu was excellent. I am so impressed. He was kind and proactive. I needed someone to help me find a path forward and he did!! He went above and beyond my expectations.

      I recently transitioned to Dr. Liu as my Primary Care Physician and so far his care has been excellent. He actively listens to my health concerns and provides compassionate care, involving me in decisions about my treatment. I would consider that as patient-centered which I very much appreciate.

      Very little to no back and forth discussion about my concerns or wholistic health. The care provider mostly spoke about referrals to specialists and getting a lab done . There was no "closure" to the appointment. He just walked out as if an invisible 15min timer rang and it was time to move on.

      My initial appointment with Dr Liu. It went very well.
