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.

One of the best in Irvine
My friend recommended Dr So to me and I am very pleased with his service. Great medical advice, supportive staff. Very kind.

Grateful
We are grateful that we found Dr Simon So as our family’s pcp. Not only does he carefully explain our conditions, but he also takes time to suggest a treatment that fits us most. Thank you!

Annual physical review
Did my first annual physical with Dr So last week. We discussed ways to improve health. He took care of all of my cancer screening and blood work. He also made sure I had updated vaccination. I will recommend Dr so to my friends and family.

This Place is a total disaster, Rude rude reception, Doctor is a lie. We went there to do normal annual pap smear for my wife, and set up an appointment to come back a week later for test follow up, we paid $5 copay for the last visit 7 days after pap smear. Then we came home, 2 weeks later they sent me a bill for $90 as they said they did infertility consultation for my wife as last visit.WHAT A SCAM! We just came back for follow up my wife's pap smear result per doctor request!

Excellent medical care

Been seeing Dr. So for two years. He is a very good doctor he listens to his patients and cares about your health. He is through and explains his decisions. His bed side manner is great. Whether your problem is simple or very complex he is your guy.

Taking good care of my diabetes!
Dr So has been the primary doctor taking care of my severe type 2 diabetes. I have had many other doctors who failed to control my blood glucose, and I was always left with questions and confusion. Dr So was patient enough to explain all aspects of diabetes and the way to achieve control. Now my diabetes has been well controlled for over a year!

Compassionate and responsible
Dr So has been my primary care doctor since I became an adult. Comparing to my pediatrician, Dr So is much more compassionate and caring. He gave me a thorough care plan during my annual physician. Can’t complain any.

Saved my grandpa’s life
Dr So did a thorough annual physical exam with my grandpa who has always seemed to be healthy. He was later ordered a lung cancer screening test, and subsequently found by Dr So to have lung cancer! Dr So immediately arranged for oncology management. Now my grandpa has finished lung resection surgery and he has been doing great. Thank you Dr So for saving his life!
