    How was your appointment with Dr. Hsu?

    Oct 16, 2021
    Dr Hsu was extremely informative and gave me all of my options. I initially went with shots which didn't help. After I realized the only way I would feel better was surgery I went with Dr.Hsu & wished I had done it sooner . The day after my surgery I was feeling fantastic and have for the last 9 years. My follow up care with Dr. HSU was fantastic.
