I went to see Dr. WC Chau for a consultation. I spent over an hour talking with him and allowing him to examine my trigger finger. Even though I cannot make an informed decision at this time, I am very glad that this surgeon would help me with this injury.

Brought in my elderly father to have a bone growth removed from his thumb. Doctor Chau insisted he has the surgery done in a hospital and to have full body anesthesia during the process. When questioned why that was necessary when its only the thumb being treated he said its the only way he can get money out of it from the insurance. At least he was being honest about it.

Posting on behalf of my mom who had a wonderful experience with Dr. Chau. She originally went in to seek a consult for her surgery and when she discovered it was out of his specialty he was very patient in recommending a different doctor for her. He also took care to answer all the questions that she had. We highly recommend Dr. Chau!

This doctor office is deemed unprofessional and devious! Physicians are expected to conduct themselves as honest, responsible professionals. They should be knowledgeable about and conform to relevant laws and should adhere to professional ethical standards. An elderly patient is not handled right on the day of the office visit, the doctor verbally informs the elderly patient who suffered from tendinitis that the best solution to treat the pain is to perform a surgery. However, there's no detailed documentation provided on how and where the surgery is going to take place. When the patient arrives for appointment follow-up, the patient is told by the front desk that surgery will be performed the same day in the doctor's office, and required a sum of monetary payment for administrative processing fees in advance, preferably cash or Zelle, even though the patient has health insurance coverage. Patient did not have enough cash on hand and was not familiar with other payment methods, and sought family member to send money to the doctor's office. Family member felt questionable and inquired about the need of the payment but the office refused to talk more to the family member and the patient was insulted by the front desk and brought up the HIPAA reason to the family member. Patient felt insulted and was confused in this situation; due to the doctor office front desk lady transferred the blame onto the patient. Under HIPAA, your health care provider may share your information face-to-face, over the phone, or in writing. A health care provider or health plan may share relevant information if: You give your provider or plan permission to share the information. You are present and do not object to sharing the information. With respect to fees for nonclinical or administrative services provided in conjunction with patient care, physicians should: 1. ) Clearly notify patients in advance of fees charged by the practice (if any) for nonclinical or administrative services. 2.) Base fees (if any) on reasonable costs to the practice, provide documentation on patient request for such purposes as insurance reimbursement to the patient, or similar nonclinical services.
