Dr Cho is very personable and gentle. She has excellent bedside manners. It was my first time getting examined down there and getting a pap smear. But it was not bad at all thanks to her!

Dr. Cho listened to me, validated how I was feeling and made recommendations that suited my needs. I am confident that I am in good hands, she took her time and didn’t make me feel rushed. She also set expectations for future care which put me at ease about next steps.

My partner and I recently moved to the area and we’re looking for a trusted OBGYN, and I came across Dr.Cho on Zocdoc. She is AMAZING. So kind and patient and really takes the time to make sure you are comfortable. The office is LGBTQ+ friendly and made us feel very safe. She will definitely be our only OB going forward
Verified patient
Wonderful, warm, welcoming doctor. Explained everything she was doing and made me feel safe. I would highly recommend her to any woman in need of a gynecologist.
Verified patient
Dr. Cho is a polite doctor but she seems not to help me a lot with my concerns and not really do the exams I need for pregnancy, she wants me to go to infertility clinic to do exam, then I went 2nd doctor for opinions, 2nd doctor did all exams I need pre-pregnant and set up everything for me without confusion. I called back Dr. Cho’s clinic few days ago coz I thought I did Pap smear, but the lady who returned the call made me very uncomfortable, she was hostile kept saying “you said and I quoted (…)” I explained I think I did and it’s a confusing situation for me that time, she repeated with hostile tone again which made me super uncomfortable, I won’t recommend for anyone who wants to be a mom coming here, Dr. cho is polite but didn’t really give you what you need to exam/know
Dr. Cho was very kind and listened to all of my concerns. She was professional and transparent with what she was doing during my pelvic exam.
