Really good doctor. Takes time to discuss and explain what is going on. Hard to find doctors like that these days unless you're one of the .1 percent.

More about Dr. Marvin Lo, MD
I believe the most important aspects of providing quality medical care are: good communication, thorough evaluation and testing, patient education, prevention of musculoskeletal injuries, explanation of treatment options, and patient involvement in the formulation of treatment plans. It takes a team approach to get you back to your pre-injury level of function and therefore I work closely with an array of highly qualified professionals including physical therapists and certified athletic trainers. We have a full staff of medical personnel dedicated to the highest quality of medical and surgical care.

Extremely knowledgeable and professional. Listened to all my symptoms and had an X-ray scheduled and completed during the same visit.
August 18, 2014David G.Verified patient
Dr Lo explained my knee surgery and made sure I knew what needed to happen next. He is a wonderful doctor with a great office staff.
September 22, 2014Karen B.Verified patient
He's really great -- easy-going and down-to-earth, but obviously very good at what he does. He had my knee fixed up and I was ready to run again after a week.
May 28, 2014Alex C.Verified patient
Probably the best doctor I've ever been to.
Thoroughly analyzed and did x-rays to be extra sure. Did the x-rays in his office and explained them immediately after to me.
Was able to accurately diagnose an issue I had for 2 year that other doctors missed, and recommended physical therapists in my area.
I will be a regular patient for a long time - very impressed.
