Patient Reviews
Apr 10, 2023
Dr Choi performed multiple surgeries on me after after a surgical mistake by my OB during labor. No other colorectal surgeon would have been able to operate so soon after and her efforts saved me from requiring a colostomy bag or being incontinent. She is very thoughtful and genuinely cares about her patients.
