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.

Wonderful Doctor and Staff
Dr. Su and her staff are amazing. They genuinely care about your health and listen to all of your questions and concerns. They are quick to respond to emails, and I never have to wait long for my appointment time.

Dr. Su is an extraordinary Rheumatologist. Five years ago I was in extreme pain. I was unable to open a door, hold a pencil or even walk without pain. It was a difficult time in my life and it was affecting my career. After testing Dr. Su diagnosed me with having Rheumatoid Arthritis. She started me on treatment and honestly saved my life. THANK YOU! She is a compassionate doctor and extremely knowledgeable. The patient portal makes it very easy to communicate. The staff is very friendly and courteous. I would recommend her to anyone who needs compassionate care.

Highly recommend dr. Su! My mother was misdiagnosed by her primary dr and Dr. Su was the one to get her off meds she did not need. So thankful for her thoroughness and care for mom. Also love her positivity and bed side manner. We need more drs like her!

I went misdiagnosed & given wrong treatments for almost two years, almost resulting in death. I went for 2nd option since my Rheumatologist would not test for anything else & said I had AS. As I suspected my 2nd opinion results came back negative for AS. I found Dr. Tien Su through my pain mngmt. doc. After listening to me she asked if I’ve ever been checked for Lupus. I have seen her X3 & I am so impressed. She not only correctly diagnosed me but calls & answer quest. She is awesome! Thanks
