Patient Reviews
Jan 09, 2023
Dr. Gau is the best doctor I have had in my 80 years. He is extremely caring, listens very well, and gives clear explanations. He is always available via patient portal and is willing to listen to changing symptoms. If he doesn't know an answer, he will tell you, but he will suggest tests to find the answer. He is gentle and friendly, a true friend to the patient while maintaining the necessary distances to be objective. I cannot recommend him too much.
