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.

Very experienced foot specialist
Dr. Hu with Orthopedic Associates in Chico Cal, is an extremely pleasure to talk with about medical foot issues. He is professional and gave me great care. I was very comfortable and felt very blessed to have a formal appointment with him. He provided direct reply's to every question which I had and he offered a very clear diagnosis with a confident long term view of my issues. I left completely relaxed with his assessment and words that every patient would like to hear when you think you might have a serious issue, he basically said, 'Funny', get out of here and don't come back. kidding aside this is one sharp young orthopedic, well educated and just a valuable doctor in my aging list of people who I trust and again blessed to meet. Thank your lucky Stars if you get to see Dr. Hu if you have a foot issue. You cannot beat our new generation of highly skilled medical professionals in Chico Cal Frank Covich March 2025

Dr Hu Doesn’t listen to the patient. Staff was rude and unfriendly. Worst experience of my life. Will never go back. They are only interested in billing for unnecessary X-rays mri and treatments. I paid for waste of time and to be treated poorly. No thanks never again!
