      My son had a liver transplant at Seattle Childrens and Dr. Hsieh took care of him. He went above and beyond to ensure my husband and I were calm and confident that he would take amazing care of our boy, which he did! He made us laugh in an extremely intense situation, and always took extra time to talk with us and come visit with us during our stay. We are so grateful for Dr. Hsieh and how well he took care of our boy during his procedure, thank you so much!
