Absolutely the best Dr I have ever dealt with. He met me at the door walked me back to register area. He was able to move my surgery up to the pain I was dealing with and made me feel like he cared. I can’t say enough great things about him. Thank you Dr Lau

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?
