Well, Dr. Gu was virtually useless. Very condescending and rude to be honest.

Other reviews are obviously trolls, but they’d gladly try to destroy someone’s career because of his views. Dr. Gu is well informed and respectable

He comes in with this huge ego while he didn’t even read the report of his patients. His resident assistant and pa had to keep on correcting him and telling him information. He is not thorough at all. He is just in and out of the room. He is the biggest example of someone who went to medical school just to have the “MD” in front to boost his big ego. If you want a doctor who rushes, doesn’t really care, is snobby, and leaves all the work to the resident...Go to him.

This man is mentally ill and a narcissistic sociopath. Don't go to him. He has a personality disorder. Don't trust him.

Like a teenager with a cell phone always in hand. Was operating on my brother, when a nurse told us that he stopped the procedure to tweet about the president. Who does this?
