Dr. Ko is excellent, therefore an appointment will take some time and wait time in office was almost an hour
Follow up on hearing problem and use of new nasal medication to resolve sinus problem
I saw Dr Ko for a health consult and found him to be an extremely knowledgeable, sincere and kind professional. I would highly recommend him as an expert in his practice.
