Here is a post from a member who’s recently had surgery done by Dr. Liu: > [@One month post op - Dr. Liu](https://forum.livingwitheagle.org/t/one-month-post-op-dr-liu/23845): > > Hi All, I’m happy to share the update that I had successful left side surgery one month ago (July 6th) with Dr. Liu in New Jersey! Dr. Liu, his team, and the staff at Cooperman Barnabas Hospital could not have been more phenomenal. I am so grateful for the excellent care they provided and for the support this forum has provided as well – I would not have found Dr. Liu without the forum!! I had refrained from posting after [my initial post](https://forum.livingwitheagle.org/t/just-diagnosed-with-es-apr-2026-emotionally-spiraling-appreciate-thoughts-on-my-ct-scan/22941) because my mental health was extremely poor in May and J… One very good thing we’ve learned about Dr. Liu is that he doesn’t offer surgery solely based on the extent of compression as some doctors due i.e. if they don’t think it’s bad enough, they won’t operate even if the patient has significant vascular symptoms. Dr. Liu takes the gravity of the symptoms into account along w/ the evidence of compression, regardless of how bad it appears, when deciding whether or not to offer surgery to a patient. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.livingwitheagle.org/t/my-first-post-evaluating-surgeons/23954)._
