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.

Remarkable Doctor. She was very considerate and informative. Had all the time I needed to explain the process of the biopsies she needed. Rare quality that I wish all our doctors had. Thank You!

I needed a 2nd opinion on a mammogram finding and was referred to Dr Gu. Her office was efficient in getting me scheduled quickly and Dr Gu was wonderful. She took her time and explained the procedure every step of the way which made a scary situation much easier! I highly recommend her!

Dr. Gu is very patient and gentle. My thyroid biopsy was over in less than 20 seconds and I barely felt anything. Not only was it quick and painless but you also get your results just minutes later. If you get anxious about needles or having to wait for results, this is the place to go.

Dr. Gu did two needle biopsies on my thyroid. She was very gentle and kind and explained every step as she went. I barely felt anything and it was all over in a matter of minutes. After the procedure, she looked at the cells and came back in about 10 minutes with my results (good news for me). Her staff was friendly, helpful and efficient. I highly recommend Dr. Gu.

Dr. Gu is so kind and considerate- she is quiet and confidence-inspiring... very gentle and skillful. I had two small-needle samples taken, and four large-needle samples taken. There was very little discomfort, and that was only from the underarm area which is extra-sensitive to begin with. I highly recommend her.

The experience I had today in my visit to Dr Mai Gu is worthy of more than five stars. She is kind, patient with my multiple questions, and expertly performed the needle aspiration biopsy I had today. What I expected to be a painful procedure was painless. Awesome! Thank you. I would highly recommend her to any and all in need of this procedure.

Dr. Gu not only stayed an hour after business hours to do my thyroid biopsy but she was also so gentle and quick. I was also able to get my results immediately which was nice.

Dr. Gu is the best. I have had several thyroid biopsies (FNA) all of which left my neck sore. She has a gentle touch, she's compassionate and I will be forever grateful for her expertise.
