    When I was shopping for a new Family Practitioner in town, I looked for recs from my other…read morephysicians and Dr. Posey's name came up. There are a few things I look for when I'm researching for a medical professional. First, I look up credentials (no brainer there) and Dr. Posey just happened to have graduated from my alma mater albeit many moons before me. Second, I look up any ratings available online or any personal recommendations from other patients and/or doctors. Finally, the ease, efficiency and politeness of their front office staff. Nothing's worse than trying to get an appointment or a simple question answered with a staff that's rude and incompetent. Thankfully, Associates in Medicine (which Dr. Posey is a part of) has a very pleasant and efficient staff. There are many things I love about going to an "old school" doctor. Dr. Posey isn't a young man (in fact, he reminds me of my grandfather) but his knowledge is broad and he is impeccably thorough in his examinations. In one of his initial thorough examinations, I found out I had mitral valve prolapse which had gone undiagnosed by my former physician for 20+ years. Dr. Posey listened to my heart sounds in all the correct positions while sitting up as well as had me turn to my left side while supine so the heart could be in a more anterior position to hear the "click" of my inefficient valve more clearly. I think I've only EVER done that in school and have never actually seen it in practice. I also had an EKG done (other issues with my heart) which, again, my original physician never did. He also did neuro checks which many, many physicians would skip in a young, seemingly healthy patient like myself. Overall, Dr. Posey requests a full physical exam once a year in his patients which include blood work (CBC, chemistry, thyroid, cholesterol panel), urinalysis & culture, and a chest x-ray. During my first year being his patient, I declined all the exams (because I was a bad patient and just wanted to be seen for my actual focused problem) but since then I've been compliant because I know Dr. Posey is looking out only for my best interest. Perhaps one of my favorite things about Dr. Posey is his bedside manner. He isn't one of those 5 minute physicians we're all so used to these days. He takes his time to interview you and do your exam to correctly diagnose the problem. And if he doesn't have the answer, he's more than happy to refer you to someone who does (with a personal phone call). Once, when I had to have minor surgery, Dr. Posey arranged my office visit with the surgeon for the following morning by calling the surgeon himself while I waited in one of the exam rooms. When he came back, he handed me a printed copy of my insurance and told me that the surgeon's office was expecting my call and that I was scheduled the next morning for my surgery. When I went to the surgeon's office the following day, apparently, the surgeon doesn't even have morning clinic that day but put me in as a favor to Dr. Posey! I sincerely appreciated that extra little effort. I know how hard it is to find a good physician these days and I feel very fortunate to have stumbled upon such a great doc.

    My goal was to transfer all my family members' medical care to CI Medical Center. Because we are…read moredissatisfied with current arrangement at a Sugarcreek clinic. We just don't like it keeps changing doctors every 3 years while we were their longtime patients. I found CI Medical Center through my insurance company's website as Dr. Vu accepts new patients. I also read Yelp reviews praising on Dr. Vu by a verifiable source. I was quite convinced to give this place a try. Unfortunately, the information was incorrect. The clinic accepts new patients by other doctors, just not Dr. Vu. But I went ahead made my appointment and wanted to see if this place works for my needs. My experience was sub par. My doctor rushed me during both first and second visits. I was particularly disgusted about how little care I received after discussing my lab results and trying to sell me CPAP machine. I felt like dealing with an used car salesperson. Majority of time we were talking about something I don't want. Then, I asked about a condition start with ST... but I can't remember the proper name from my other doctor's record. I said, "you can check the records..." I was told there were "too many pages... I didn't read them." and for the pain... "just take Tylenol for the neck pain..." Eh? I thought asking other physicians to fax my records was to know about my conditions. One more discussion that I certainly don't approve in a doctor-patient setting. I was told the owner didn't like about me posting photos of their facility online. (If you are the owner on Yelp or Google, you can remove the photos. I don't mind.) Oh, thanks for telling me during my office visit about your social media issues. Next time, please contact the poster directly. So, I thought seeing a doctor in Chinatown for its convenience could save time and gas from driving across town to get medical care. Boy, I was wrong. I realized getting a good medical treatment is more important than anything else. The only reason to save this review from 1 star to end the year was the flexibility on reschedule.

    I love Dr. Vu. I decided he would be my doctor when I saw him handle my mother with authentic…read morerespect as she railed on what she does not want and said what she is willing to do in her particular patient care at that moment. Dr. Vu kept his easy demeanor, said okay, and offered solutions. He can handle my mom. I never see anyone win my mom. She can deploy a variety of facts and emotional expressions to achieve her goals. My mom is retired ICU and Psych nurse. Even though she comes from conventional medicine, she practices all natural for herself. When I signed on w him, I just grew more impressed. He is consistent in listening well to me, even calling attention to things I could get some help on (but not noticing its importance). This office feels what I think a wholistic office would be. I really appreciate Dr. Vu's gentleness. Acupuncture is here too. The acupuncturist is the best I've ever had. She is well worth the time and expense. She is phenomenal. On acupuncture: I was living in NYC when 9/11 happened. One of the major attributions to us New Yorkers weathering and healing so well from that moment and all the things that unfolded from there is acupuncture --it's mainstream there. Initially I started treatments at the Swedish Institute. Renown in NYC. A lawyer friend enrolled in the program. career changing to becoming an acupuncturist. He told me of his acupuncturist. I started going to that guy (who was always booked three weeks ahead). He is renown. Dr. Vu's acupuncturist is even more phenomenal than all my previous acupuncturists. From a car accident I have injuries to three cervical vertebrae and three lumbar vertebrae. The major nerve for the left side of my body gave me 24/7 piercing pain. I was told I will need a pain doctor and pain shots for the rest of my life. Dr. Vu knew that was not for me. His acupuncturist gave me weekly treatments that helped me function, and enough time to figure out how to move the discs back enough into place to stop touching the major nerve. (I am a yoga teacher, so I know some about the spine, and general anatomy). Thanks to CI Medical's acupuncturist I never even felt I needed to make an appointment with the pain clinic. Why is she the best? She is the best balance of determining the right acupuncture points to yield the most effective path to healing/treatment sans any minutiae of pain (on needle insertion). She is gifted, insightful, and sensitive. It's amazing she is here in Houston, Texas.

In the last two years, I have not been able to contact her office, the phone number is no longer in service. I have personally driven over there about three times during office hours and the door has been locked.
