Doctor is in a hurry and has no time to spend with patients. The Texas Eye and Laser Center appears to be a hurry-you-through processing center. If you have any unusual problems, they don't want to hear about it... and they will likely refer you to someone else. I am very disappointed, disgusted and saddened by the overall quality of care and competence that this center displays. Too many grievances to list, unfortunately. Please avoid, for your own sake!

I had a terrible experience with Dr. Hu at the Texas Eye and Laser Center. The surgery itself was a disaster-- the graft did not take, was not the right size and there was significant bruising and damage to both upper and lower eyelids. Afterward, Dr. Hu was nowhere to be found. He did not show for the one day or one week follow-up and I was left with only the Therapeutic Optometrist. Stay away from this place-- you will feel like a widget in a processing mill. The techs seem incompetent.
