I believe that I give the best care when I can get to know my patients as individuals. The most rewarding part of my job is seeing patients in the postoperative clinic, wearing their street clothes and looking like any person running an errand. I'm always so impressed by the spirit of my patients.

Dr. Hsieh was amazing! She was very engaged / very attentive. She answered all questions and concerns and even did some options-modeling with us - we'll try a and b, if not b, then c, etc. She explained everything really well, and even shared her experiences/other patient outcomes, risks, benefits, improvement expectations, etc. It was great appointment! She must have spent ~45 minutes with us.
