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.

He is an old style doctor that takes time to talk to you. He answers questions and will joke around. If I was President he would be my personal physician.

The most caring doctor you’ll ever meet
Dr.Tu was very thorough, he saved my life when I was admitted to the hospital back in 2017 to 2018 and the only reason I didn’t start my care with him when I moved to Las Vegas 1 year ago was because I am terrified of having to go to Mountain View hospital, the care I received from a majority of the staff was frightening and a couple of the doctors was also scary, hopefully by now the issues that almost killed me back then have been resolved. I really feel if not for Dr. George S.Tu and Dr. Mark Taylor cardiologist I would not be here today. Thank you Dr.Tu

Dr. Tu was my Pulmonologist for several years then we moved to CA. After 8 years we have returned to Las Vegas. Dr. Tu is his same jovial self. He takes time to provide a thorough review & appointment. He covers all bases & recommends the best possible care for your pulmonary issues. Wonderful physician!

Very satisfied with the staff
Most Drs seldom sit and talk they just give you prescriptions and leave the room. Dr Tu was friendly and didn’t appear to want to exit the room to get to the next patient.

Amazing doctor
He entered the exam room with an extended hand to greet us. Then smiled and put me completely at ease. He showed me the X-rays and MRI to support his findings. Asked a bunch of questions, allowed me to respond as lengthy as I wanted to. Gave me a diagnosis and suggested some updates meds to treat my issues. I was very impressed with his Confidence and friendliness. So glad I was referred to him.
