From Our Patients
“After seeing another ophthalmologist for twenty years, I was referred to Dr. Liu for a second opinion. He was very thorough — taking the time to show me the scans and explain the many issues with my eye. I have never had a doctor explain everything like he did. He is now my retina specialist.”
