Review for Dr. Litt
Dr. Hsieh is straightforward and very thorough. She provided me all the necessary information about cataract surgery and help me to make the right decision. I got detailed instructions orally and in writing. The surgery went through very smoothly. I am very happy about the results.

Review for Dr. Hsieh
He wanted to see me 6months after my Echo, the schedule was not available to do that as it was into the next year. I was away and when I tried later I could only get 8 months out. Then received a text for September and took it. He was great, need to work on scheduling.
