Dr. Tsao is a phenomenal physician. She has a wonderful way of talking with kids, she listens to them, and she makes sure they are part of their continuing health care. She was able to help my daughter feel comfortable talking to anyone but family. She is 11 years old, has been under the care of Dr. Tsao for several months, and we have seen such a difference. She still struggles with the physical injury pains, but mentally and emotionally Dr. Tsao has made such a difference! We are thankful to have her head up my daughters Health Team.
