He is a fantastic Doctor. Dr. Hou also sat down with my family and explained everything he had to do during my surgery. He spends time with his patients and answers all of your questions. I highly recommend him to my family and friends. If you need vascular surgery look no further, I have had 5 vascular doctors and I have been with Dr. Hou for over 4 years and I wouldn't switch doctors. He is trustworthy and relieable.
