i went into the consultation not expecting to hear any different news than i've already heard from other Drs. But her questions about my condition were very thorough, and her explanations about everything i told her was hugely informative and a lot more in depth than what i've received elsewhere. Really great.

Dr. Liu was really informative and helpful with my concerns. She asked me questions I hadn’t been asked before, like asking what I felt would help me and what I wanted to do, and made me feel like I was in good hands. She cared about my opinion and thoughts, and took those into consideration. I am excited to carry on working with her and hope to get some answers about my condition.

I found my consultation with Dr Liu an extremely positive experience. She listened to my symptoms and worries about them, very sympathetically. Dr Liu gave me a very thorough examination after which she explained her findings very clearly in a way I found easy to understand. Dr Liu was extremely kind and sympathetic while being very professional all of which inspired me with confidence. I am very grateful to have been referred to her .

Was worried about meeting my new Neurologist , but as the time passed during my appointment I felt very confortable to talk about my symptoms and feelings. During the whole time of my first visit I was happy that we had a long talk ; she answered my questions , and if there was a doubt to give any confirmation she made me understand the why of it . I'm happy to start my new treatment and I'm waiting for my next appointment to talk about any results .
