Lora Liu's Online Review Report Card

My experience with Dr. Liu was wonderful. This was my second endo surgery (longer and more extensive than the first one). I was at a point with pain where I was experiencing light headness and shortness of breath due to the excruciating pain. I did extensive research and her name always came up. I decided to meet her and after our first consultation I knew she was the surgeon for me. She is incredibly compassionate, validating, and caring. I never felt rushed throughout the whole process. Dr. Liu checked on me and answered all my questions for several days if not weeks after my surgery. I felt at peace having her by my side. I had no complications, and after 3 or so weeks I was feeling like myself! Thank you, Dr. Liu! p.s. her whole team is awesome too! Very professional and caring.Regarding finances, although she is out of network, her team handles everything! this was very important to me because other surgeon's offices have you pay upfront and then you are responsible to submit the claims for reimbursement to the insurance company. I didn't want to deal with an insurance company as I was recovering. This is SO important and helpful in the recovery process! Really though. She also has a payment plan which is completely reasonable and worth it. Her whole team makes the process so easy so that you only have to focus on your recovery.

Dr. Liu is a phenomenal and overall empathetic surgeon. From my initial consult with her , I felt empowered and like my voice was being heard. She truly validates and tries her best to help endo warriors feel better. Before my surgery , I was having excruciating left sided pelvic pain and having bowel movements literally use to bring me to tears. 3 months post op I can say I am feeling so much better and no longer dealing with the same problems. Endometriosis is a crippling disease but doctors like Lora Liu restore hope in the hearts of patients like myself that have been experiencing debilitating pain for years! Thank you so much Dr. Liu!

Dr. Lora Liu is the most trusted Doctor I have been to. She listened thoroughly to all of my symptoms and gave me options for treatment. We decided that a laparoscopic surgery was the best option and I was scheduled four days later. I never had to worry about scheduling, insurance or any logistics as it was all professionally taken care of for me. While in the hospital I had several different nurses say that I was in the best hands and they were right!! Dr. Liu was highly compassionate and spoke to me like a friend, not a patient. We still communicate about post-op and she is very attentive. I am so glad to have found Dr. Liu. Look no further, she is the best choice.

Dr. Liu was extremely thorough and precise with my excision. I was pleased to read the extensive surgical report that truly seemed like she took out every possible suspicious tissue. I had 2 consults with Dr. Liu prior to my surgery. The first one was in office and she was very warm and understanding, which is rare to have in a surgeon. The second one was virtual and a pre-op appointment. Throughout the consults, Dr. Liu was flexible and easy to work with, and opted to increase the number of surgeons present to increase my positive outcomes. Dr. Liu's finance and scheduling team is very flexible and responsive. I was able to get in for surgery quickly as my symptoms were increasing.I had 3 surgeons present: Dr. Liu, a urologist, and a OBGYN who worked together to excise tissue as a team. Dr. Liu excises vs ablates tissue which is KEY to a successful endo treatment. She also uses the DaVinci robot, which after doing my own researcher, is a cutting edge technology and not used by every endo excision specialist.Pain and recovery post surgery was not terrible, and Dr. Liu called me every day to check in on how I was doing. She was also available for questions via email, which made me feel great. Once again, rare to have in a surgeon.I was expecting more communication about what tissue was removed immediately after the procedure and a thorough walk through of the pathology and surgical report - neither of those happened, thus the 4 star review.I'd definitely see Dr. Liu again, but hope I don't have to :)

Dr. Liu was very thorough and helpful in answering all my questions and being up front and honest about the surgery and the outcomes so that I could make an informed decision about my quality of life, and future plans. During the surgery/ post-op and during my recovery she checked-in with me frequently and was very honest as to what I could expect. She answered my questions honestly and thoughtfully. I would highly recommend her and her team to women living with endometriosis who are considering laparoscopic surgery. I never experienced this high level of care and safety.

I highly recommend Dr. Liu! I sought her out an unpleasant experience with another endo specialist. Over the years, I’ve grown to be very selective with my medical team. As a Black, queer, femme I have experienced a lot of unselecting experiences in the medical world which has led me to be very attuned to how I am being treated. Dr. Liu instantly made me feel comfortable. She took time to listen to me and not pressure me to make a decision. She is kind, great bedside manners, and takes time to explain things in detail. She is also accessible when needed. As a result of my initial experience with Dr. Liu, I decided to proceed with surgery. I was diagnosed with a very (extremely) rare form of endo which Dr. Liu has not dealt with before. But, my experience with her helped me feel confident in her care. The surgery went smoothly and her whole surgical staff were kind. Dr. Liu also followed up with me regularly after the surgery. I’m now 2 months post surgery and I feel great. I cannot not stress how thankful I am for Dr. Liu’s care and expertise. She will not disappoint!

It’s so hard to find doctors that understand what you’re going through and actually take the time out to help and figure it out. Dr. Liu is so caring and sincere, I had the best surgery experience with her and her team. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my endometriosis care. She made me feel comfortable through everything and was there for all my questions and how to manage my symptoms. Dr. Liu is extremely knowledgeable in Endometriosis and is the best to go to for pelvic pain. I feel a lot better after surgery, and she is so sweet to check up and make sure everything’s okay. Don’t waste your time going through tons and tons of doctors and not getting the right help. Dr. Liu is the best out there !!

Dr. Liu is the best ever. If you need to see a doctor, you need to see Dr. Liu. She is knowledgeable, she is a gifted surgeon, and her office runs flawlessly. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Liu and her team. I had Endometriosis excision surgery with Dr. Liu in September. She called me each day after surgery to see how I was doing and answer any questions I had. I have never experienced the level of care Dr. Liu offers. She is amazing.

I couldn't possibly put into words how grateful I am for the treatment and care I received from Dr. Liu. I’ve suffered from chronic pelvic pain and painful periods for almost 10 years. I’ve seen more doctors for it than I can count, all of which completely shoved my pain aside and provided no answers and no help. When I made my first appointment with Dr. Liu, I was incredibly anxious to meet with yet another doctor thinking it would be just like all the times before. However, for the first time in my long journey, I was immediately met with compassion and understanding. She listened to every concern and symptom I had. It was very clear how much she cared about my situation and wanted to get to the bottom of things. I had never felt so validated in my life. She carefully explained all my options to me. We decided pretty quickly that surgery was what comes next. She was very thorough and answered all my questions, I never felt rushed. I felt like I could have sat there asking questions for hours if I needed to. Between that appointment and the surgery itself, I also dealt with her whole team who were just as wonderful. By experience up until the surgery itself is enough to give 5 stars. But I am now 6 months post op and I have never felt better. Prior to the surgery, it had gotten to a point where I was in horrible pain every second of every day. Now, I only have a few pain days a month and compared to what it used to be, it feels like nothing. Dr. Liu completely changed my life and I cannot fathom into words how thankful I am for her and her team. I would give a million stars if I could. She is an incredible doctor and person.

had a terrific visit with Dr. Liu. She took her time and listened. She is a kind, caring and very knowledgeable about my very difficult case.
