Dr Liu is a great surgeon. I've gone from only being able to stand for 1 hour , before Ablation surgery. Now I can stand about 4 hours at work before ready to collapse. Major improvement

Dr Liu has always been straight forward about telling me about my condition and things that I need to do. In all honesty, if I hadn't been sent to Dr Liu for him to do the surgeries that he did, I wouldn't be alive today!
