Patient Reviews
Dec 02, 2024
Dr. KOGA listened to my concerns, let us ask questions, and he answered them in terms we could understand, did not rush through the appointment. He was very polite. My family and I are well pleased with the surgery he done on my back, I have been pain free since then. I am have tried to do exactly like he told me. I would recommend Dr Koga for any back problems that anyone may have. If I ever have any back problems in the future I will choose Dr. Koga. He did an excellent job on my back.
