About Me:

Samuel Lau grew up in Hawaii before attending Creighton University in Omaha, NE where he majored in Chemistry. He earned his medical degree there on an Air Force scholarship and stayed on to complete his internal medicine residency in 1991. He then served four years at Barksdale AFB in Louisiana as an internist & chief of Internal Medicine until 1995. Dr. Lau then went back into training to become a cardiologist at Dartmouth (NH). After his interventional cardiology training was completed in 1999, he moved to the Oregon and practiced in Eugene & Springfield for 20 years. He and his extended family relocated to the Hillsboro/Portland area in 2019 to enjoy all the educational and cultural opportunities this area has to offer. Outside of work, his life is centered around his children, wife and father. They are fond of good books, movies and music, as well as trying out new recipes and exploring the Northwest.

The practice is too far away for people I know. I am willing to travel further because of the care Dr. Lau has provided me starting at his former practice site.

Dr. Lau is amazing! After each appointment with him I feel that I should invite him and his family to dinner at my house. He is definately one of the best doctors I have ever had! Thank you, doctor!

I've been dealing with this problem for a few years and this was the first time a Doctor was concerned about getting to the bottom of the symptoms and is working on a path forward. I appreciate Dr. Lau's demeanor, thoroughness and care.

I am a relatively new patient with doctor Lau. I needed a new cardiologist after my previous one retired. Dr Lau was recommended highly and I have been extremely satisfied with his knowledge, skills and experience. His personality and communication skills are outstanding. I am highly impressed with Dr Lau's practice.

Dr Lau was incredibly caring about my health which honestly I haven't really experienced very often. His attention made me want to care more about myself. I appreciate the time he spent with me and how he respected my intelligence. I'm glad he will be my cardiologist.

Dr. Lau and his staff are an excellent health care team, and I am lucky to have them as my providers. I appreciate all that they have done and continue to do for me. Please recognize them for a job very well done. Thank you.
