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.

Unprofessional and Non-Solution Focused
Dr. Koh’s bedside manner was extremely uncaring and lacked empathy during my post-op experience with chronic pain. Rather than working with me to develop a comprehensive plan for managing my pain, including physical therapy to help me regain mobility, his sole focus was on opioids. It felt as though he was more concerned with DEA regulations than actually helping me find effective, alternative solutions. His rigid approach and lack of compassion made it difficult to feel supported, especially when I was putting in the effort to recover post-surgery.Additionally, his unprofessionalism in disregarding the exceptional care provided by Dr. Puri and his amazing orthopedic team was appalling. Despite being colleagues within the same hospital, Dr. Koh’s dismissal of their efforts during my recovery left a negative impression. I expected better collaboration and support, especially from someone within the same medical community.

Poor bedside manner and poor treatment
My husband worked with Koh hopefully to treat tremendous back pain. Koh was cold and distant the entire time we met with him. The results were we left with a large bill (insurance covered most of it thank goodness) and absolutely NO pain reduction or remedy. I would not recommend this man.

Dr. Koh went above and beyond explaining my condition and treatment. There was no wait time and he is very easy to talk to. Wonderful experience!
