Hands down the absolute best pelvic specialists around. Dr Liu and Dr Howell are angels on earth. I didn’t think I could live without being in pain every single day, and because of them I am! They are so incredibly knowledgeable and personable. You will not regret taking the time to see them.

I am exactly one week post op and I can’t recommend Dr. Liu enough! I’ve battled with painful periods since I started menstruating at 11 years old. My pain was dismissed year after year. I was told “Just take birth control” and “Painful periods are normal, get used to it. Everyone else has to go through them too.” One OBGYN even alluded to the pain mostly being in my head. That same doctor also told me that he could do the surgery to see if I had endometriosis and if they found anything they would BURN IT OFF. If a doctor ever says that to you – run for the hills!!! Excision is the only way and Dr. Liu is an expert in excision surgery. She is so patient and willing to listen to any concerns you have no matter how big or small. The last couple months before the surgery really took the cake. I was spotting way before and way after my period. My last period not including the spotting was 11 days long. I was also in pain almost every single day of the month – especially on my period and when I was ovulating. Along with painful periods I’ve also had painful bowel movements, sensitivity to almost anything I ate, pain during intercourse, and frequent urination. When I had my consolation with Dr. Liu she did a transvaginal ultrasound on the spot! She found a 5cm Endometrioma on my right ovary with the possibility of another cyst. I couldn’t bare to have another month of pain every single day, so I talked with her lovely surgery coordinator Janisie and was able to get my surgery booked two weeks out! Dr. Liu performed the surgery with Dr. Larish who is a very skilled Urological Surgeon. This was my first major surgery so I was very nervous but excited to feel better. The whole staff at the Jersey City Medical Center made me feel safe and I knew everything was going to be okay. The discomfort from the surgery was nothing compared to the long years of pain and torment I went through with endometriosis. I was more sore than anything. After the surgery I was told I had a very difficult case. It was all over my bowels, bladder, rectum, etc – but they got it all. 🙂 After the surgery Dr. Liu called me for days after to check on me. I felt so taken care of and I hope that anybody reading this will go see her because she honestly changed my life.
