Dr Matsen-Ko is the most caring, considerate, and caring doctor I have ever known. She shows a genuine concern for my level of pain and gives all the options for relief. She takes the time she needs in an appointment to convey information and to make sure I understand. She originally took my case as an emergency and has continued to follow up with me on a regular basis. Her care has increased my quality of life and I feel very fortunate to have her as my doctor.

Not only is she an excellent surgeon, but she has a wonderful ability to be patient-focused when it comes to questions and concerns. She's also very encouraging.

She strives to give each of her patients highly personalized treatment, just as she would want for a member of her own family. She has two years of advanced training in minimally invasive anterior total hip replacement, total knee replacement, revision total hip and knee replacement and fracture care. She is dedicated to getting her patients back to the activities they enjoy.
Born and raised in Seattle, Dr. Matsen Ko was excited to bring her medical and surgical training back to Seattle to join her husband, Dr. Kevin Ko, in practice with Orthopedic Physician Associates. In her free time when she’s not helping patients it is likely that she’ll be enjoying the outdoors with her new son, extended family and friends. She particularly enjoys running, cycling, mountain climbing and backcountry skiing.
