I strive to be the best physician I can be. I consider my medical practice a profession rather than a business entity. I am a physician who helps my patients, not a "provider" who works on "consumers". I practice the art of medicine according to a high moral code. I honor the trust that my patients give me and use my medical skills and knowledge to the best of my ability to improve their health.
After years of medical training and experience, I understand how to work with my patients to ensure they receive the best care possible. My thoughtful and personalized approach means I'm fully committed to the health and well-being of all my patients. I believe that the best medical care for each individual can only be obtained through a joint effort by myself and each particular patient.

Dr. Chiu is a great family physician I highly recommend. He is calm and analytical and very focused on patients. He allocates a long time to talk to you and finds the best for you. Check out his time spending vs other physicians, especially his annual health exam. I deeply trust and respect him because his priority is his patients.
I see a lot of reviews at here and Yelp are related to the payment, but please note that it is not the doctor who decide how much you owe. Your insurance company decides. Trust me, Dr. Chiu doesn’t like this confusions. It drains any physicians who just want to do

It's been 3 years and I am very happy with Dr. Chiu. He has taking care of my health very professionally and friendly.
Unlike some doctors I've visited in the past, he allocates long and quality time for my visits. I never felt he is in hurry to finish seeing me and move to the next patient. If you ever felt pressured before or not treated as much as you paid, meet Dr. Chiu. You will feel - he sticks with the quality standards to take care of his patients.

My family of four have been patients of Dr. Chiu since 2001. If there is a perfect definition of a family practice, then Dr. Chiu's practice is it bar none. The staff is very friendly and personable. Dr. Chiu is a straight shooter. He always performs a thorough examination before suggesting the best possible remedy and cure.

The secretary to make appointment for new patient is extremely rude and not accommodating at all. She want you to commit to pay $$ for online registration, commit for whatever she'll charge you when you go there even before seeing a doctor. Doctors are suppose to treat patients not milk them for money before knowing the patients. I have perfect insurance but they don't care about that.

I am so upset with the receptionist, her name is Barbie? I called this morning to make an appointment for my husband, since my husband is a new patient, she asked me to fill out all these new patient forms including our credit card information before we could make an appointment which I don't understand. However, I did, after that I called back again to make sure she got all the information so that I could make the appointment, but she refused and said that my husband should call them directly to make the appointment. Like I said, my husband asked me to make the appointment for him. What is

Went to Dr. John first for allergy issue and later schedule a annual physical. As other reviewers mentioned after the physical I was billed extra's and when asked the office talked about stuff that wasn't covered as part of physical. But transprancy is key, if you are performing anything outside of what the scheduled appointment is for, why not inform the patient that it would incur additional cost. Rather surprising them. And offcourse they had my credit card and file and charged it without a calling and confirming that they are going to charge.

Dr. Chiu has provided my family with exceptional care for over 5 years now. I moved to Dublin several years ago, where I now reside and work. I gladly commute the 2 hours to remain under his care, he's that good.
My first experience with Dr. Chiu was back in 2010 when he diagnosed my son's appendicitis on the spot. My son Josh, 16 at the time, is athletic and doesn't like to complain, was experiencing what he described as a 'stomach ache' for a few days prior to our visit. Dr. Chiu prescribed a scan. My reaction was, "What, are you kidding, isn't that extreme

I think Dr. Chiu offers good service. However, if you decide to go to his office, be VERY careful about what they bill you for and ask a lot of clarifications before leaving the office. I went for my yearly preventative examination, which should be fairly standard. A couple of weeks later, there was a claim through my insurance for an Office Visit, which costs about $50. My insurance covers preventative 100%.
When I called their office about this, the front desk told me "I can go directly to LabCorp to get tested without going through the doctor's office". Well, sure, I suppose

I have been going to Dr. Chiu for many years now. Awhile ago, when I moved, I switched to a very popular doctor near my new house. That doctor was very personable. However, he couldn't solve my issues or prescribed older generation antiobiotics and I found myself going back to Dr. Chiu for a second opinion, and what turned out to be the resolution. I now use Dr. Chiu exclusively, even though I have to drive a bit. If you want a doctor that is all smiles and idle conversation, then Dr. Chiu may not be the one for you. If you want someone who will fix your issue and is up on the latest technology

I have been seeing Dr. Chiu since the end of 2007, and I like his professionalism. He does not try to spend time on niceties, but he is polite and courteous. Although Dr. Chiu does not smile often, as some people noted in reviews, I think he does care about his patients' well being. Case in point: I remember very well that he broke into a big smile when he noticed I was finally doing an excellent job controlling my weight and started asking how I managed it. There is another thing I appreciate about Dr. Chiu. Every time I get a medical/health question, he always has an answer and a prop

Dr. Chiu has an incredibly analytical approach that left no stone unturned in diagnosing several issues I had. He doesn't generally run late like many doctors, which is why perhaps he is too businesslike for some people who have given him bad reviews? I appreciate that he and his staff are running a efficient doctor's office. My favorite doctor that I've had!

Dr. Chiu is a very good doctor. He is very knowledgeable. He is very patient with me when I did my annual check and did most of the detailed check up I ever got. He spent long time to ask me my health history and family health history and explained to me a lot of information. I asked him many questions and he was always patient to answer in detail. You can also get your blood drown on site in his office so you don't need to go to the lab. You do need to visit his office for twice for the check up since the first appointment was just to understand what your blood test need to be done based

Dr. Chiu has been our family doctor for the past several years. He's precise, knowledgeable, kind and most importantly....he's able to see you as soon as possible, not weeks or months later.
I went in last Wednesday with cold symptoms and he told me how to take care of myself and that by Saturday I would start feeling better and sure enough I felt better!

I am quite disappointed today with Dr Chu and his staff. I am a regular patient of Dr Manjul Patwardhan and Dr Chu is covering her during her vacation. Hence I had to go to Dr Chu for my son. My son was complaining about ear blockage. Dr Chu checked and suggested that his right ear need to be cleaned. And he asked his assistant to set up the cleaning machine and started cleaning. Half way through when my son complained of discomfort, Dr Chu mentioned the ear wax is hard and is also close to the ear drum (hence the discomfort is understandable), asked us to use ear drops to soften the ear wax and

Dr has written whole big write-up, but forgot to write about core context i.e. How RUDE DR AND DR'S STAFF WAS.
1. About the example: How nicely Dr Chiu have modified what example I gave while telephone conversation or may be Dr Chiu had not listened to me at first because he was keep yelling at me.
What Dr Chiu was saying, asking this amount is US culture. So I said no. If someone go to Walmart and buy something for $300. After 3 months, Walmart will not come to him and say, they made a mistake and forgot to charge $10 and pay or we are going to credit agencies.

When you are in pain and go to Dr, their office staff maters a lot.
Dr's office staff start is very very rude.
At each step they are rude and more like threatening, one example:
They keep copy of your credit card, I don't know, how safe is that and if you ask why, they became so they became impolite.
Worse staff.

I used to go here for my annual exams, but haven't gone for a number of years. The reason I stopped going was because I felt the impression that the doctor was not very attentive to my needs, and much more interested in selling me drugs. My drug test came back with tri-glycerides level on the borderline. It was still normal but at the end of being normal. Anyway, first thing he suggested was to put me on medication. From what I know, if you're on medication, you're on it for life. I was still in mid 30s; so, wasn't interested in starting a lifelong drug dependency.

This is my first time ever yelping, but I think Dr. Chiu deserves to be written about in only positive words.
My husband, my children and I have been patients of Dr. Chiu for about 20 years.
Dr. Chiu is very professional, very smart, and quite frankly knows how to do more than he is supposed to. (He can do many procedures that other doctors would refer their patients to a specialist for).
I deeply admire his skills - so far he hasn't been wrong even once.
If we are ever referred to specialist, it means we really must see one.
Yes, sometimes you have to wait longer than expected when

Today was the 4th or 5th times my daughter came to see Dr . Chiu.. Dr. Chiu was referred to us by her cousin when my daughter turned 18 and needed a family doctor. After reading all the other low reviews, I felt in fairness I need to post our experiences with Dr. Chiu and his staffs. Yes, I agreed with some of the other reviews that staffs were not too friendly, but i don't think they were rude.. On the good note..today when we were there those unfriendly staffs were no longer there( perhaps Dr. Chiu read reviews and addressed the problem. So he does care) the new receptionist there today

Rude front desk personal and they didn't really explain why they need my credit card on file. And the CAUCASIAN women gave me a funny look as i walked it to the office like she may have been a little shocked that i was a african american (as she tried to signal to her coworked) why i have no idea. Just real bad customer service. But the doctors service (my son said he was really nice and got him what he needed) was fine so once you get through the front office to see the doctor you will be ok.

My husband and I had the worst experience ever doing physical checkups in Dr Chiu's office. I was getting a blood draw. The nurse tried twice and couldn't find my vein. She called Dr Chiu. Dr Chiu seemed unhappy and told the nurse to watch. He made two shots again. He said he found the vein and started drawing the blood. It hurt so badly and I had to call for a stop after the first tube of blood was drawn. The entire process took about 40 minutes. The nurse was young and pretty, with no smile on her face for the entire 40 minutes, she said 2 or 3 times that it was hard to find my veins

Clearly this doctor can't accept outside input from others, and yet he has the nerve to call me arrogant.
Also, it seems pretty telling that you would say I'm a coward for name calling (which I didn't do to you) then call me a coward. I think actions speak louder than words, but I'm pretty sure you don't understand that concept since you are rude and horrible to everyone of your patients and you still think you're a nice guy. Show some class.
