Nov 28, 2017
I saw Doctor Yu about my endocrinology issue early this year. I found him very knowledgeable on his expertise. He is also truly caring about his patient. I made an appointment with him 3 weeks ago. At the day I was 20 minutes late. But he managed to let me in and performed scheduled event. He gave me advices that are really helpful. In my opinion he is an outstanding doctor and can be trusted.
