Dr. KO and everyone that I have personally come across always have me going home feeling happy/satisfied. I have no complaints what so ever, if anything I am finding myself constantly begging people to join the Henry Ford family. I switched over my daughters to Henry Ford and in the process of trying to convince my parents. I love the effort and care and love and respect and professionalism put into work when it comes to my concerns. Keep up the good work!

It was the first time meeting Dr. Ko and I was extremely impressed. He was very sincere and took time with each question asked, and was very gentile and caring with the test administered ( I was so nervous) He put my mind totally at rest. I was very satisfied with the entire visit.

Overall Rating: 5.0 2023-11-15

Patient verified via Press Ganey

He is top notch. And, unlike most, he provides a phone # directly to the ENT office to use instead of the HFHS number which is invaluable. He is great at returning calls and being informative. Doesn't rush through appointments whatsoever.

Doctor seemed rushed with questions and not hearing what I was saying initially. When he asked one of his quick questions of me, I explained "that's what I am trying to tell you". He then seemed to slow down a bit and listen.
