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 donโ€™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.

The Best!
Dr. Chu sees my whole family, ranging from 8 years old- 84 years old. He and his staff always go above and beyond for every single one of us. Whether itโ€™s a common cold, Rocky Mountain Fever (after seeing 2 other doctors heโ€™s the ONLY one who thought to test for this) or a herniated discโ€ฆ he always takes great care of us! My grandmother was recently admitted into the hospital through the ER, and it was NO time before Dr. Chu had us transferred under his care. (Which is what we wanted) He also stopped by to check on her several times during her stay. You donโ€™t find many doctors who are as thorough and caring as he isโ€ฆ and one thing we all love about him is that he doesnโ€™t sugar coat anything.. and yes, sometimes you might have to wait a little whileโ€ฆ but that just means he has a lot of people who use him as well, so he must be doing something right!

Lovely Family Doctor
He's treated my family and I for 15 years and the care is great. He treats us like one of his own, respects our voices and listens when we have health issues. He guided me through my cancer diagnosis and referred me to the right doctors as well as saving my life on more than one occasion. I recommend for all families his practice!

I have been using Dr. Chu for many years now. He has helped me with the many health issues that I have and has always been very honest and thorough when going over everything. If you are looking for a great doctor that will take care of all of your needs and your family's needs you will be very satisfied with the care that you will receive from Dr. Chu. I am so pleased with Dr. Chu's services that if I had to move out of town I would drive to continue to use him as my primary care doctor. And, if you are looking for a pill doctor, then you need to find another doctor because he is going to make sure to do all of the testing that needs to be done before prescribing any medication for any illness!! I have heard of many people that I know wanting to just get pills that were turned away and are now talking about the wonderful doctor only because he wouldn't give them what they want without the testing that was needed to prescribe the medicine that they were wanting.

Dr. Chu went over and beyond to help my daughter after an accident with her horse. It was late in the evening. He met us at the emergency room. He took care of everything. He was in constant contact with us and he kept my nervous daughter calm. Her CT was clear. Dr. Chu even followed up to see how she was doing!! He always takes excellent care of my family. I highly recommend him, you will be pleased with your medical outcomes!!

Dr. Ronnie Chu has been my doctor for several years. He is the most dedicated doctor I have ever seen, extremely dedicated to serving the patient and their needs. If it wasn't for his drive to find the answer, I would not be here today. He will not stop until he finds the correct solution to your health issues. He has never failed to provide the care needed along with the professional, passionate, caring staff necessary to get the job done.

I recently suffered a heart attack. It had been diagnosed as gastritis by the local ER Doctors and I was told I could return home. The following day I was examined by Dr. Chu. The test results indicated that I had approximately 97% blockage of the Circumflex Atery. Dr Chu's staff made preperations through (BWMH's ER) to have me transported to Princeton Hospital. The next day I had the atery ballooned and a stent inserted. I thank God for the speedy recovery. To Dr. Chu and staff , THANKS!!!

I am able to write this review because Dr Chu found a heart condition that I had no idea I had. He saved my life with a 20 minute office visit with basic question about my fatigue. When reading reviews on any doctor pay close attention to patients that will give you honest true life stories of how much of a positive impact there doctor has made to their lives, and if that doesn't set your mind at ease call a local pharmacist.

I have been using Dr. Chu and his staff for a number of years now. Because of their due diligence, they have found and treated my family for some situations that were very serious and would have had a bad outcome if they had not been discovered. Dr. Chu's staff have also been great when working with my children too! I am very thankful for Dr. Chu and his staff.

Dr. Chu cares about his patients. He and his staff goes above and beyond to assist patients. I visit his office monthly and receive quality and professional services. One thing that stands out with Dr. Chu he knows his patients individually. I was in Walmart one day and received an examination. He is a giving back to the community doctor. In my opinion, he is the best doctor in West Alabama. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DR. CHU!

There's not a more competent physician around. Hands down the very best. My family is forever grateful to Dr Chu for finding my dad's bladder cancer. In this area of Alabama, , Dr Chu is well known for not just treating symptoms. He looks relentlessly for the source of the patients problem. The staff are always helpful and very respectful of the patients. The wait is reasonable and the dr /pa spend time listening to the patient. You cannot find better healthcare than Chu clinic.
