Patient Reviews
Jul 16, 2021
Dr. Ku has been my urologist for a few years and has also been my surgeon twice. I can only state in all honesty that he is a good if not great listener and surgeon as well. He may seem aloof, but I attribute that to being shy. Given the chance to work with him, I think any urology patient would be happy and lucky to be one of his patients as he is sincere, kind, gentle, he explains everything and if you are lucky, you will see he has a sense of humor which is calming to any patient.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?
