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 Disappointing
I have been a Type 1 Diabetic for sixty-six years and technically was his patient since the beginning of 2023. However, over four appointments, I only met him once and that one time resulted after I sent a letter to the Hoag Senior Executive.

Excellent doctor
I have a wonderful experience. he is very kind, courteous, and give full attention to me every time I have visited him. Under him I got all my issues resolved and he made sure to check on me and my health throughout. I would even ask my husband to change his doctor to Dr. David Ahn since he is simply the best.

Dr Ahn
Dr. Ahn is the most well informed, knowledgeable endocrinologist I have ever been treated by. He stays up to date on all technology and has helped me achieve and maintain my A1c at around 6.0. In addition, he is kind, attentive and professional.

I’ll go back
My first visit Dr spent the necessary time explaining my treatment and medicine options as a diabetic. However, there has been an unresolved problem getting my prescription to a pharmacy. I’ve called 4 times to get an order for needles to take my insulin. The staff is very polite and nothing happens. I’v explained that I can’t take my insulin without needles. I appreciate the Dr but who’s doing follow up?????
