    They waste your time shamelessly. We arrived at 3:45 as requested for a 4pm appointment. The place…read moreis supposed to close at 5. The waiting area was packed, like people with crutches leaning against the wall. It was clear they were running badly behind, and from the amount of people waiting, it was clear it's wasn't just one doctor running late. At 4:30, I asked the check-in desk how it was looking. There were 3 people ahead of us and they just took in the 3:15 appointment. It could be 30 minutes, it could be 45 minutes. "Depends if the people ahead of you have a lot of questions or need an X-ray." Um, are you hoping for people who ask no questions about their own medical condition? No explanation of how they were going to see us well after their closing time. No "sorry," which I guess would've been hypocritical anyway. By that point, I had checked Yelp and found it was par for the course, and sure enough, it was just another day of grossly overbooking the place at the expense of patients' time. We canceled soon after and left without being seen for a painful injury. Wish I could send them a bill for our time.

    Horrible office. I would not recommend anyone to this unprofessional office. They can't even send a…read morefax after three requests. Run!!!!!!!!

    Dr Christoffersen is the best! If you are in need of hip replacement, he's very experienced,…read moreknowledgeable and his team of professionals is first rate! Excellent patient care from beginning to end. He was a blessing. He took the time to listen and explained in laymen's terms what to expect regarding surgery on hip replacement and the extreme importance of followup with physical therapy as well as occupational therapy. My husband felt empowered knowing he didn't go through it blindly and all questions were answered clearly. Successful surgeries, Excellent Doctor and compassionate team were the perfect combination. We were very fortunate to have Dr Christoffersen talent and experience restore mobility and able to live a pain free life again.

    I went to Dr. Christoffersen for a hip replacement. A colleague in his department referred me to…read morehim. I had an x-ray taken about 6 months before that showed my cartilage was very thin in the area. I had a steroid shot that helped for several weeks by his colleague. My pain had gotten really bad radiating to my knee and down from my hip. Dr. Christophersen said that pain in my knee and down wasn't associated with the hip which isn't true. He wanted me to get another opinion and I would have to go over the hill to the San Jose area to a doctor, I was already in so much pain, He didn't seem to care. His colleague thankfully gave me the name of an orthopedic surgeon from Golden State Medical Group in Capitola. Each time you see a doctor it takes a month to get an appointment, This Dr. took an x'ray. In a month he scheduled me for hip replacement surgery. He also did the anterior approach with is a much quicker recovery than the posterior approach which Dr. Christoffersen performs. Its been four months and I am back at Zumba with little pain. I am thankful to have been sent to this doctor by his colleague. I really felt like Dr. Christophersen had no sympathy for my pain. He could have taken another x-ray and seen it was deteriorating. If you are having hip surgery go to Golden State. I was able to cross over from Palo Alto Medical foundation, thankfully!

    I am so thrilled to have discovered Dr. Robert Liu. In 2022, I was diagnosed with Baker's Cysts in…read moreboth my knees. The orthopedic that I saw at that time did not suggest an MRI or physical therapy. He basically said that the cysts were too small for draining or surgery. Also, didn't seem to care about the pain I was experiencing or the way the cysts were affecting my walk. The pain increased as did the size of the cysts, so, in 2023, I found Dr. Liu. What a difference! Dr. Liu, listened carefully to me. As a senior I was grateful to be treated with such respect and to find someone who cares about getting to the bottom of the reason for pain. He then ordered an MRI, which ruled out a torn meniscus and I am now in physical therapy. I have high hopes that this will correct the problem. I highly recommend Dr. Liu.
