Dr. HSU is my dermatologist. She was present as well as [staff], [staff] and another resident who helped me and wrote the notes entered in my medical record and patient file as these are what I use for my ongoing care.

Dr. Hsu was a pleasure to talk to. She listened to my commentary, asked reasonable questions and performed biopsies quickly, efficiently and painlessly. I was grateful for her technical medical skills and for her humanity in dealing with my personal needs. The visit included a thorough dermatological exam and performance of several biopsies, which later indicated cancer cells.

The only reason Lab results have not been reported is because there has not been enough time for the results to be returned. The doctor explained that I could access through my chart and that they would follow up with a phone call as soon as they have the results.
