Patient Reviews
Jan 09, 2023
I've been his heart patient since 2009. He was among the team members who helped save my life -- dissected aorta -- 16 hour surgery. I was only 49. I'm now 62 thanks to Dr. Chu and others. I absolutely adore this man for all the reasons listed in the other reviews as well as my own for being among his longest living patient care reviewers here.
