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.

Didn’t take serious my knee replacement post op
Had total knee replacement 8-28-2018 six months later my knee was in a lot of pain. Dr Allen Lu didn’t even follow up with any x rays to see why I was in pain. Only tried of aside me my surgery was all a success. For more then 3 yrs I been living with pain and suffering in and off. Finally had another orthopedic check it. X rays showed the prosthetic were all loose! Now I need to have it redone all over again.

Dr. Lu is honest & helpful with all of his wisdom & knowledge. There’s a reason that he comes so very highly recommended in his craft. I look forward to having Dr. Lu take care of my knee replacement surgery.

Was asked if I wanted to see the PA or MD. Waited 2 months to see the doctor and when I showed for my appointment I waited an hour and a half to see the PA. Still have yet to hear from this office to schedule surgery. Not feeling very comfortable with the service at all. May be a good doctor but the office is run poorly.

Office staff is rude and incompetent. There is no desire to help patients find treatment and get even the most basic care. Seeking orthopedic treatment is often time sensitive yet they can't seem to schedule patients sooner then 4 months out. Their office manager seems to work when she wants to and no one knows her schedule and she never returns calls.

He is recongnized as one of the best surgeons in town. But very bussy doctor office leads on waste of time on each follow up visit. At least 1 and 1/2 hour. Would reconsider before to come again.
