The staff at Dr. Ou's office is very efficient, from the receptionist and nurses to the doctor, everyone is very kind, patient and respectful. The staff is also bilingual (English-Spanish). Dr. Ou has a good sense of humor and is quite professional, so he creates a relaxed atmosphere for the patient. Dr. Ou answered my questions without rushing, clarified what I needed to know, and didn’t order thousands of lab tests and other procedures like many other specialists I’ve seen. I will definitely come back again when I need it. Thank you for providing quality health care and warmth. In this country is difficult to find a doctor and medical personnel like these.

El personal de la oficina del Dr. Ou es muy eficiente, desde la recepcionista y enfermeras hasta el doctor, todos son muy amables, pacientes y respetuosos. El personal también es bilingüe (inglés-español). El doctor Ou tiene buen sentido del humor y es bastante profesional, así que crea una atmósfera relajada para el paciente. El Dr. Ou respondió a mis preguntas sin prisa, clarificó lo que necesitaba saber y no ordenó miles de pruebas de laboratorios y otros procedimientos como muchos otros especialistas. Definitivamente voy a regresar de nuevo cuando lo necesite. Gracias por brindar atención de calidad y con calidez. Es difícil en este país encontrar un doctor  y personal médico como estos.
