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.

He prescribed antibiotics for my 1 year old when she didn’t need them. My baby girl ended up in the ER after vomiting all night because of the antibiotics. Do not go to this Dr. !! I trusted him and my daughter paid for that.

I took my daughter to Dr KOO after Kaiser could not figure out how to treat a chronic cough, it took 2 trips to see him, and she has not had it again (2 1/2 yrs). Staff is always very helpful and friendly. Dr KOO is detailed and very patient with children

Both of my children and my granddaughter have been patients of Dr Koo. We met Him in 1997 and got the best care from him! Dr Koo and His staff have been excellent from the beginning, friendly, very intelligent, and many I will always call my friend. You won't regret choosing Dr Koo as a Pediatrician, I know I don't .

Dr. Koo has been my kids Doctor Since about 1992, He's an Excellent Doctor my kids liked to come to his office. They always felt comfortable, He's always taken the time to explain to me and my husband what was going on with the kids. Always friendly and respectful. He has been my 19 year old Pediatrician since he was born. We moved to Corona in 1995 and will do the commute for the peace of mind. I recommend Dr. Koo to any new parents out there, or anyone that is looking for Pediatrician.
