Dr. Lu did examination based on prior visit and was looking for specific outcomes.
Dr Lu is amazing, I don't know how she can be so caring and compassionate every time I see her. She is the reason I do t go anywhere else. It takes a long time to get an appointment and when I've left message the nurse (?) assured me someone would call back but they never did. I spoke to Dr Lu and she was concerned and said I could message through the app and she would get back to me
Dr Lu is a wonderful doctor. I'm glad I found her
One of the best
Dr Lu is great! Very concerned about helping me with my walker and making sure I was comfortable during the exam as I've had 5 fusions and have some difficulty sitting and walking.
Dr. Lu is awesome but I'm questioning the accuracy of the optic scan since I wasn't dilated and have the beginnings of a cataract.
