Dr. Ko performed reverse shoulder replacements in both my shoulders. He’s clearly a skilled surgeon, and both surgeries went very well. But I was most impressed with his bedside manner. He greeted both my husband and I with a handshake, explained the procedures, well, and answered many questions that I had for him in a clear succinct manner. As a registered nurse, I highly recommend Dr. Ko for any surgeries you may need in the future.
