    Dr.Chu is a very good doctor and does go above and beyond to explain any medical issues I have. He is very friendly and helpful. My issues were previously stated why I recommended him but the issues with answering service

    I gave that number because the staff there feel like they don’t want to be there. Especially Alnisa. I feel like they’re really not interested in the job anymore.

    Dr Chu has been my primary care physician for over 20 years. I am very pleased with his efforts and trust him completely with my health needs. However, I am concerned with this intrusion of Optum. Optum has made my visits to his office as well as referrals MUCH more arduous!
