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.

Best Choice I Ever Made
I have been in Dr Ko‘s care since 2010. When I finally broke down & made an appointment, I was so afraid he was going to tell me that I wouldn’t be able to continue in my career choice, as an ironworker. But that’s not what he did. And I was really appreciative of that. But what he did do, he’s told me that we’d have to figure out what works for my body and how I would be able to continue doing what I do. He gave me my life back, and I’ve had additional years in the trade. And I am forever grateful for Dr Ko’s care. He is kind, attentive, and he even has a little humor. He is a great doctor. He takes the time to take care of what your body & you.. as a person needs.

I went to Dr. Ko for bursitis in my hips. I was unable to sleep lying on either side, which is my favorite way. He immediately scheduled me for a "shot" procedure. The procedure itself was a bit painful, but only lasted a few minutes. I am now pain free.
