Dr Louie performed a thymectomy on me 9 years ago. He suggested radiation treatment afterwards to be certain the cancer was gone and I have been coming back for CT scans as suggested to make sure the tumor didn't come back. Thankfully it didn't. He told me about a study that tracked MG patients who did and didn't have radiation and I am so thankful that I followed all of his recommendations. Over the years he always took time to answer my questions and provide me with information on how to live the best life I could as a person with MG. I have complete trust in the care that I received from Dr Louie and would highly recommend him.
