Patient Reviews
Jun 11, 2021
Dr. Chu knocked me out of my socks when I first met her, and I absolutely understand why my PCP referred me to her. She takes her time to diligently listen to your questions, eloquently formulate answers to those questions and concerns, and goes beyond that to make you feel right at home. I absolutely look forward to being her patient for hopefully years to come! On top of all of that, she is an amazing voice for the LGBTQ+ community, specifically her trans clients who have historically been underserved. Thank you, Dr. Chu!!
