Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

An actual real life superhero!
After years of failed attempts to get a cardiologist to hear me and understand me, Dr. Lu was the only doctor who recognized I needed help and urgently. Dr. Lu and his team are the only reason I received a new heart and a new lease on life. As a young mom and a full life ahead of me, there is no way to thank him and everyone involved during the most difficult time of my life. How do you thank someone who gave you a second chance to live? If you’re looking for a cardiologist to listen to you, help you, and give you the best chance of getting healthy again, Dr. Lu and his team will be there for you.

Mindful
What stood out? He understood what I was going through and want's to figure out the cause of my illness. Dr. Lu didn't want to rule out anything. I didn't have to really say anything and yet Dr. Lu and I was on the same page. The advice he gave and the suggestions wasn't forceful, he'll leave the choice up to you. Making you feel comfortable about session and whether you're going to go through with whatever or not. He makes you feel that your not alone and he'll be there to see it through. Him and his staff and Team. Thanks to everyone, I know I still have a long road to go.

One of the best
Hands-down, Dr. Lu is one of the best cardiologists that I’ve ever come across in the 13 years of dealing with my heart disease. he is very caring shows a lot of concern and answers all the questions that you may have, and his bedside manner is amazing. he really takes his time to explain things such as your diagnosis so that you can understand. I highly recommend him to anyone who may need a Doctor Who is attentive and shows concern for his patients. P.s he actually called you back if you have any concerns and it’s not his assistant. If you want a cardiologist who is hands-on, this is your man.
