After significant research and due diligence in selecting a surgeon, I came under the care of Dr. Hu for a partial nephrectomy aimed at removing a suspected early stage renal cell carcinoma from my left kidney. At every significant juncture of the process, beginning with our first consultation through to my post-operative recovery, Dr. Hu exhibited a comforting balance of empathetically driven attentiveness to the particularities of my case and a perceptively laser-focused expertise as concerned the knowledge, skills and experiences that would be depended upon to successfully execute my procedure. Going on four years from the time of my surgery, I am grateful to have no signs of recurrence, healthy kidney function, and to be enjoying a happy life. I am confident that this auspicious outcome is most proximally attributable to Dr. Hu’s mastery of the state of the art medical science and technology applicable to my diagnosis wielded and vitalized by Dr. Hu’s personal intelligence, commitment, talent and virtuosity. I submit this review with great gratitude, a sincere wish for your future health and wellbeing, and an unqualified endorsement of Dr. Hu as your physician.
Confidence. Meeting with Dr. Hu filled me with an enormous amount of confidence. I left my visit having all the facts. Dr. Hu and his office answered all my additional questions leading up to my surgery. Post surgery, I anticipated having issues with incontinence. My fears were dismissed within about a month - a true credit to Dr. Hu's surgical expertise. I was blessed to have he and his staff care for me. Best of both worlds incredibly gifted and genuinely compassionate.
I can’t say enough about Dr. DelPizzo he goes above and beyond for his patience! Wouldn’t feel comfortable with anyone else that’s why he is the best!!
