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.

Very disappointed with the outcome. I went for several post-op visits- Dr. Liu did not come in to see the results! Consulted with new surgeon who is going to redo it the right way! Would definitely not recommend him to anyone.

Dr Liu took extensive time to describe to me all the possible alternatives for treatment, and discussed at length everything I needed to know - he was extremely thoughtful, concise, and made me feel like he was totally invested in my successful recovery from breast cancer. He reconstructed my breast (after a mastectomy) and made me feel whole.
