Julia is not just one of the best physicians I’ve ever had, but she’s also a kind, thoughtful, and patient human being (which we love because sometimes going to the doctor is scary!) I had some basil cell carcinoma and Julia found it, biopsied, and recommended me to another amazing physician (Dr. Jenny Hu) who removed it alongside her team. It’s easy to not mind a medical experience when it’s normal or “everything is fine,” but when inevitably stuff sometimes isn’t, you want to have somebody like Julia in your court. I’m so grateful for the comfort I feel when I go in for visits; it’s night and day when compared to some less than optimal experiences I’ve had in other offices! Also, the team at the office, billing, communication, scheduling- it’s all super streamlined and smooth. Thank you for everything!
