Cu Joseph A MD

I like Dr. Cu. This doctor does not sugar coat it and gives it to you straight. I’ve read some of the bad reviews and don’t understand how that could be. This doctor takes his time with each patient, that’s why appointments take a few weeks to book. I’d refer him to friends if they ask.

We had a very unfortunate experience with this doctor and his staff… I was calling to follow up on an authorization for one of my father’s prescription. The reason for this was because I had been calling almost every week for the past 2 months to get them to approve /​expedite the authorization for my father’s medicine… The pharmacy claims to have sent the request several times… We counted 16 separate events since september until now. When I called the doctor’s office… They insisted that they have not gotten or received any request… On top of that, they would not even offer any solution to the issue… So frustrating!!! Now in the process of selecting another PCP for my father…

Bad Medical Assitant ever, non professional at all, they dont know how to help people when they said URGENT, the MA talk to the patient like «i dont care» or «that’s your problem, not mine».
I wish it have negative start instead with 1 start, this office take forever for the appointment.

I wish there was a negative stars option. I have had the extreme misfortune of having this doctor assigned as my PCP. First off, it took me 4 months just to be seen for my initial visit. 4 MONTHS! when I finally seen the doctor I was treated like I didn’t know what I was talking about (I’ve had an ongoing condition that requires medication for the last 5 yrs). He didn’t believe what I told him so he had to get records from my last doctors. Which took him another few weeks. Finally when he got those records I was sent to get lab work done. Then he wouldn’t see me for another month. All this time I’m without medication for my condition. After a month I see him again and he confirms what I officially originally told him and says he will refer me to a specialist (which is all I wanted to begin with). After a few weeks the referral never came. He told me if that was the case to just call him. So I did… They have no idea what I’m talking about. I would have thought a referral is common knowledge for health care professionals… Not here. It’s been a few days of tag and them saying they will call me back and they never have. Still no referral. I’ve never seen such incompetence in my life. I can’t wait to I get my referral and never have to deal with this place again. It just seems like he doesn’t care. Even when I had time with him he never showed any emotion or interest. Terrible place.

I had this person for over 2 years as designated Primary Care Physician under Santa Clara Valley Health Plan… if I was ever sick, or needed a prescription, I could never count on this Professional to assist me in a timely manner. What do I mean by timely manner??? Imagine having bronchitis & you requested an appointment… the receptionist would respond 2 weeks+++ for the next available appointment. Think about getting a physical…1 month +++ for nearest visit & then they canceled/​rescheduled my prospective visit. I’d go get prescriptions from my kids doctors down the street or have to visit midnight clinics elsewhere for service. Sad but whole heartedly the Truth.
I’m a humble, sincere reviewer & don’t mean harm… but either he’s the greatest physician in this area or he’s Chris Angel!?!

He is the best around. I recently moved and the doctor I went to wanted to put me on high bp meds after just 1 spiked reading. I refused because I have been a patient of Dr. Cu for 4 years now and he worked with me to reduce my weight and keep my cholesterol, triglyceride and blood sugar levels at the optimum level. He is also very caring and listens to my questions and concerns. I still come to the Bay Area and have my check-​ups/​follow-​ups with him. The office staff were always friendly and helpful and really tries to accommodate my needs when it’s urgent. Oh, he is also my sister’s, my brother’s, and my husband’s PCP.

Dr Cu’s staff is friendly and helpful.
Dr. Cu himself is very knowledgeable, demonstrates mastery of topics we discussed and has a clear passion for keeping his patients healthy.
I am really happy having him as my primary care physician.

Dr Cu is really good in handling patients and he make you comfortable in any health issues you may have. the staff were friendly as well. Thanks.
