Dr Zhu was great as she has been at every visit and times when I sent messages to her during arthritis flare up’s. She is very caring responds quickly and obviously really knowledgeable. I can honestly say there is nothing I would need her to improve.

She’s so nice and informative at the same time. She not only asks questions, she actually lets me talk and explain my issues without interruptions. She is without a doubt, the best Doctor I’ve ever had.
