Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very pleasant and modest physician and surgeon with precision orientation in his surgical work. Excellent and efficient performance in installation and after-care of pacemaker for my heart. I strongly recommend him as a surgeon to patients needing installation of the pacemaker.

A Compassionate Cardiologist with a Personal Touch
Dr. Koo stands out for his exceptional care that combines medical expertise with a warm and compassionate approach. His genuine kindness and willingness to engage in meaningful conversations create a trusting atmosphere from the start.Facing surgery can be daunting, but Dr. Koo's outstanding bedside manner eases anxieties. He goes beyond addressing medical concerns, considering the emotional well-being of his patients. Dr. Koo's commitment to accommodating unique needs, as seen in his efforts with my mother, sets him apart.I highly recommend Dr. Koo for anyone seeking a cardiologist who excels in both medical expertise and compassionate care. His wonderful personality makes the healthcare journey more positive and reassuring.

Can NOT recommend!
Dr. Koo's attitude was condescending so communication was difficult! I was put on medication which caused ongoing problems. My second call to report the ongoing effects wasn't answered for 4 days and came when I was having an eye exam. I called back 10 minutes later and Dr. Koo was busy but his staff said he told them he would call me back the following week. He did not call and another week passed. I stopped the medication and sought care elsewhere. As a professional, I find this unacceptable!

I was diagnosed with SVT 7 years ago and had seen Dr. Koo. Being stressed about having heart surgery I opted to try different meds that didn’t solve the issue. Over the last few years I had frequent palpitations, skipped heart beats, and several unpredictable debilitating SVT episodes. This year I had an ablation done. I’m 3 mo post surgery and haven’t had any issues and feel like the SVT is finally gone. I highly trust Dr. Koo. He’s knowledgeable, friendly, and has changed my life greatly
