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.

Had to seek care elsewhere
Our son (14) dislocated his knee. When it relocated on its own a small piece of bone and cartilage broke from his femur. Dr. Chui recommended a complicated surgery that was not medically proven necessary and was declined by our insurance. Dr. Chui was unwilling to discuss alternative care or procedure. As a result our son's care was halted for two weeks. We were forced to seek care elsewhere.

Great Doctor - Meniscus surgery
Dr Chiu performed meniscus surgery on my left knee during June 2023. From initial testing and diagnosis through surgery and then follow-up, he was excellent in all regards. I also want to thank his assistant and team of therapists at IBJI in AH. I really appreciate their team approach and believe that is why I am pain free and doing great after 4 weeks. I suffered with pain for almost 1 year and should have seen Dr. Chiu a long time ago. I highly recommend Dr. Chiu.

Condescending
The staff were friendly however the doctor reminded me of a jock picking on a nerd. A patient should be able to freely ask questions and discuss options to consider without a condescending response. Dr Chiu has a HORRIBLE bedside manner as compared to other doctors I’ve seen. Seek a different doctor!

My daughter's appointment with Dr. Chiu for a second opinion on knee surgery could not have been worse. He and his staff were rude and provided no medical care or diagnosis.

Dr. Chiu treated me for a meniscus tear in my knee. Immediately after surgery I was in little to no pain and am now almost three months out and crushing the recovery process. He is very personable and has wonderful bedside manner. I highly recommend Dr. Chiu and his staff.

Dr. Chiu is very knowledgeable and an outstanding surgeon. He took the time to explain my condition & options in terms I could easily understand. My arthroscopic knee surgery went extremely well. I experienced minimal pain post surgery & was walking without crutches within 6 hours after my surgery. HIGHLY recommend him. Thank You Dr. Chiu !!!

Dr. Michael Chiu takes his time to listen to your concerns than patiently explains everything that needs to be done. His bedside manner is excellent and his staff is very friendly. My wife had an issue with her knee. We were referred to Dr. Chiu by a friend who had visited him 3 months ago with a knee injury, had surgery, and his care was exceptional. For my wife he provided a cortisone shot and her improvement was 100%. We would referrer Dr. Michael Chiu to any of our family and friends.
