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.

No to Cho
Went to Cho for shoulder issues I have had for years. He told me that I had arthritis at first then said I had frozen shoulder. I knew more was going on so I went to Santa Rosa to see a specialist in shoulders. He discovered I had two detached ligaments, two torn ligaments, a huge bone spur and yes some arthritis. After major shoulder surgery all is good now. Avoid Cho if you value your health.

I will NEVER see Dr. Cho again
I will NEVER see Dr. Cho again. Within 3 visits and a total of 45 minutes of knowing me he recommended 2 surgeries with NO talk about lifestyle changes to try first. He actually told me that if you have an eating disorder the ONLY way to lose weight is bariatric surgery. Ummm - hello? I asked if my condition could be cancer (after lots of other tests) and he said if it was I would have lost weight (about 40% of cancer patients have unexpected weight loss before diagnosis.) I can’t tell you how dangerous I think he is as a general physician.

My regular doctor was on vacation. I was sent to Dr. Cho. I had a sore throat for 2 months and was very concerned. He was supposed to refer me to an ENT. It never happened. Then, I followed up with my regular doctor weeks later who told me that things had slipped through the cracks. Well, they continued to slip. Finally I made an appointment myself. Yes, I did speak with my doctors representative who told me that she could not book an appointment yet, AND I ALREADY HAD MADE ONE MYSELF. PLUS SHE HAD A LOUSY NEGATIVE ATTITUDE. BOTH DOCTORS WILL NEVER SEE ME AGAIN!!!! HEY, DR CHO. IT APPEARS THAT I HAVE VOCAL CORD CANCER, AND AM HAVING SURGERY IN 2 DAYS. YOU COST ME OVER 3 WEEKS DELAY, AND YOUR LAZINESS AND LACK OF FOLLOW THROUGH COULD POTENTIALLY PUT ME IN A GRAVE!! HOW CAN I POSSIBLY THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

Dr cho and his staff are great and very welcoming . Along with going there for other visits, he has delivered both of my kids and I wouldn't hesitate once to go back to him again. He is very caring and takes the time to talk to you and explain things as well as listen. He really cares about his patients. I've never felt more comfortable with a doctor.
