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.

Dr. James Ku was called in the middle of the night when the hospital endoscopy unit was closed, to be part of the team of Dr. Andrew Korman to perform an emergency ERCP on me. He was the first to arrive among the team and introduced himself as my anaestheseologist for the procedure. His mild manner and sense of efficiency and dedication immediately put me at ease that I would be in very good hands. Indeed I was. I would recommend Dr. James Ku anytime, and thanks to Dr.Korman for choosing him.
