Dr Pau and team were professional and supportive throughout my surgery, hospital stay and follow-up appointment. I was shocked to learn I had to had to have emergency quintuple bypass surgery, and Dr Lau responded quickly to ensure my safety. I am appreciative to him and his team for my new lease on life.

You will find Dr. Lau a very knowledgeable physician. Very easy to talk to, used a combination of anatomy plates, pencil drawings and his hands to help me understand my current and future situation regarding my heart issues.. Do not be put off by his youthful appearance (he looks like he just got out of high school) But I can’t recommend him enough I am very very lucky to have had him.

I highly recommend Dr. Lau. He performed open heart reoperation to repair leaky mitral valve. He was professional and before surgery answered all my questions addressed all concerns.

Dr. Lau made me feel comfortable.
He has helped me with my post cardiac surgical needs. He is talented and respectful. Removing my sternum wires was the last step in my road to recovery. Thank you!!!

Dr. Lau sat with my son an I and throughly discussed the dynamics of my son’s aorta. He clearly explained all the pros and cons of his injury.

Dr. LAU saved my life with an emergency,open heart bypass surgery. He is modest, quiet and brilliant. Now that I know him, I would never choose another heart surgeon and would put my life in his hands another time If necessary.
I should not brag about a scar but that is the visible sign of his ability- a straight line down the chest that is as minimum as could be. Areas are already white in color.
A man of few words until a one on one visit, he gives his residents a chance to learn and quietly overrules anything that is different in any way from how he would proceed
Thank you for being my cardiologist!
