Dr. Zhu was knowledgeable and put me at ease. He advised me to contact his care team with any questions or concerns that I may have.

Leah made it seem like every interaction was with a "best friend"! I was heard, it was documented, and it was followed up every single time.

Dr Zhu operated on my back and now I can’t stand the pain so I’m in the er. I’m dragging my left leg around like I have a peg leg. He was nowhere to be found when I had to crawl across my floor to call 911 because of the pain he put me in and didn’t give me the resources to manage. This doctor might be ok for carpal tunnel. But a spine surgeon he is not. I’ve found reviews all around the internet mentioning how he caused paralysis and blindness.

He is a great surgeon with a good bedside manor. He treats his patients and their families with respect and kindness. I'm healing much faster than anticipated and credit his skill for that.

This Dr has a one-size-fits-all policy for after surgery pain care. I would never had this surgery had I known I would be left in such pain. One size fits all is a terrible policy because we are all different. Doctors should know everyone is different. I feel like the doctor treated Me like I was a number not an individual.

Was very nervous about having back surgery. Been in pain for 8 months. Dr. Zhu is extremely knowledgeable, an outstanding surgeon with a very calming and reassuring manner. He took the time to explain the procedure and answered all my questions. I was up walking the same day after surgery and had no pain. Anyone requiring back surgery should definitely see Dr Zhu.

At my first visit I thought that everyone at the clinic were so flat and did not care, by the third visit I had a different opinion they were very warm and caring. I don't know what happened on those first visits but now they are so kind to me. Dr. Zhu is the best and right now I recommend him to everyone I know.
