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.

I really like Dr. Gao. I can tell he has prepared to meet with me. He listens to me, provides answers in a way that I understand. Addresses my concerns thoroughly.

Did an incredible job of making sure what he heard me say us what I said, and he was the most knowledgeable gp I have encountered when it comes to thyroid issues.

Dr Gao is VERY smart and Very nice while still being Very professional. His ability to be aware of small but Important nuances and have a broad spectrum of information has been greatly appreciated many times.

My wife is Chinese. Dr Gao explains things to her in Mandarin and then explains to me in English. He is attentive to our concerns, professional, caring and insures we understand the reasons for the recommendations he makes. An excellent doctor we are both very happy with
