I would like to be able to give this Doctor a good rating, but honestly, on this visit, I waited TWO solid hours, and he never came in to the exam room. After waiting 45 minutes in the waiting room, I was finally taken to an exam room, where I waited another 25 minutes before an "assistant" came in. He gave me an overview of the results of my recent MRI, asked a couple of questions, and then got up to leave, saying the "Doctor would be right in"! 45 minutes later, still no Doctor! I decided they either forgot me, or were pretty indifferent about my issues, so I left. I have never had to wait this long for any Doctor in my life. It is really arrogant that Dr. Meow doesn't feel my time is as valuable as his, and I resent his cavalier attitude toward same. Maybe he should learn to properly schedule his patients, so they don't have to wait two hours, and still not see him!! WE ARE DONE!

This is a very professional dr. He is very knowledgeable and he avoids surgery unless it's necessary. He doesn't stick you on a bunch of meds. He has a very caring attitude and wonderful bed side manners. Very punctual and has a very nice staff & nurse. I drive a 100 miles to see him. He is well worth it. Happy to have found such a wonderful dr. All his reviews are true. Very good dr.

Every appointment with Dr. Miao was better than the previous. Being that this was my third ACL reconstruction, I was incredible apprehensive of every doctor out there. Immediately, Dr. Miao and his nurses, Melissa and Tiffany, made me feel important and welcome. He was extremely thorough and never seemed rushed. In fact, my first interview with him lasted nearly an hour. Which was UNHEARD of in my previous surgical experiences. He is patient with any questions or concerns you may have. I am 9 months post-op right now and I've never felt better. Truly, one of the greatest physicians I've ever met. Thank you, Dr. Miao!!

I've been using Dr Miao for the past six years and if I need any more work I will return to him. I trust his opinion and his manner is courteous. He takes time to explain findings.
