Dr. Cho listened carefully to my updates (I had seen her a little over a year ago); she recommended a trial of the same procedures she had recommended at that time. I was grateful that she understood my wish to try a specialized form of PT with another provider, to whom she had already made a referral at my request on the portal. [redacted]

Dr. Cho would have liked to have seen me sooner, and she said next time to just let the office know, and I would get a sooner appointment. And she also was very accommodating and understanding, and tried to get me into the next appointment as soon as possible, which did happen. So she was very understanding, and very applicable, and also very flexible. She was great.

Dr. Cho is an incredible doctor. She was thoughtful, listened to my concerns, and explained things thoroughly to me.

Another outstanding visit at a MGB Facility! Thank you for even creating the Spine Ctr on Wells Ave. Such a terrific local resource with MANY gifted admin and clinical staff. Dr. Cho was extremely clear and explained things and conditions to me with a physical model and both my mri images and what more normal images look like. She was kind, listened, offered me options and I feel we came up with a healthy treatment plan together. And she assured me she's there if and when I want to revisit anything.

I was mostly unsatisfied with the appointment with this provider because I didn't feel that there was a plan coming out of the appointment. And it was just a lot of, I don't know, I'm not sure. And so I didn't come out with any confidence. I didn't feel that there was a plan and it was very unclear what the next steps were. So I didn't really feel that I was being taken care of.

I was extremely disappointed and frustrated with my recent experience with Dr Cho. She made me feel as if I was a patient who complained about pain every week, when in reality I had not seen her for three years. She seemed irritated during the appointment, showed no empathy and seemed to be bothered by having to explain sciatica. [redacted]

She is knowledgeable and helpful.

I was that I was going to have to waits more than two months to see Dr Cho, from my initial referral. Given the amount of pain I was in, this was way too long. I was pleased, then, to get in to see her after only five weeks, due to her planned vacation on the September date. My appointment went very well. Dr Cho took plenty of time to see me, explained my situation well, and gave me a good plan going forward. I am very satisfied with the care I received and hope future visits, if needed, will not be so delayed.
