Review for Dr. Abdo

He verbally confirmed...

Review for Dr. Tsao
Dr. Tsao was very pleasant from the moment I met him at my consultation. He was easy to talk to regarding an uncomfortable situation. I felt I was in good hands from beginning to end.

Review for Dr. Tsao
This person did more harm than good to me. He overestimates his abilities and claims expertise he does not have. He made me feel worse about myself than any other doctor I’ve seen. He did not help my pain matters at all and was not honest. Don’t go to this doctor.
