I was pretty scared when I went in to see Dr. Sun because I had read a one star rating on this site. Imagine my surprise when I found the doctor interested, observant, and willing to discuss a wide range of options for both diagnosis and treatment. She explained the tests she was ordering, listened carefully to my list of symptoms and my history, and although I don't think she (or anyone) can 'cure' me she gave me hope for positive treatment and some amelioration of symptoms. I really liked her. Hope you will too.

I felt like she didn't really listen. I tried to tell her symptoms. She took me off all meds, then kept pushing botox. I declined. By second visit, she "couldn't do anything for me" and had "tried everything." Literally tried nothing.
