Edward Y. Koo, MD

The office is beautiful and the staff and very friendly and caring. Dr.Koo has a great personality and is very professional and knowledgeable. He takes a lot of time to explain things about your eyes that other doctors don't bother with. I feel like I have had a little eyeball lesson after each appointment. LOVE HIM!

From the moment I walked into the office, I noticed a friendliness toward clients and among the staff. The office is welcoming. Each staff member that I met with was friendly and courteous and efficient. Dr. Koo spent time explaining my issue, anwered questions clearly and calmly, and offered to show me a video as well. My follow up appointment was equally as positive, from the moment I walked in, to the end of my appointment. Having a caring, courteous staff is such a rarity now, but it seems Dr. Koo has made every effort to create a good aura for the client as soon as he/she walks through the door. Marcie, who manages the optical shop is equally as considerate and welcoming, allowing people to simply try on the frames, and engages in conversation as well. Her frame selection is outstanding. I have been at other opthamologists' offices and I believe Dr. Koo and his staff are far superior on all levels.

My son was working on his car when he got something in it in 2009. Dr. Koo saw my son right away (we had to wait, of course, because he has a very busy practice, but my son was seen the *same day* I called) and treated him immediately, so he wouldn't have to wait to get the prescription to have some pain relief. He was also very thorough in explaining what had happened, why he was doing what he was doing, what to expect, and after the initial healing time, he had us schedule a couple of follow-up appointments to make certain everything was 100%. Dr. Koo has an incredible bedside manner, and I have complete confidence in him. And that's saying something, because usually I'm skeptical about doctors' abilities. Dr. Koo knows his stuff (He is the chairman of the hospital eye department) and obviously cares deeply about his patients and their families. I also found the staff helpful and pleasant. I've recommended Dr. Koo to many of my friends, family, and colleagues since and they all agree with my assessment of Dr. Koo. He is now the eye doctor for all of my family members that live in the area. We are happy that we found such a great doctor.

A very fine physician. I had a vitamin deficiency which was causing me instability and memory loss that was found through his eye exam and subsequent testing. Brilliant guy. I now send all my family members to his office.

My LASIK experience at Dr. Koo's exceeded my expectations. Dr. Koo explained the entire process thoroughly so that there were no surprises. The surgery itself was painless and the only discomfort I ever felt was mild scratchiness of the eyes for 3-4 hours afterward. It has been only two days since then and I am already enjoying clear vision. I would highly recommend Dr. Koo to anyone contemplating LASIK.

Dr. Koo is one of the most experienced doctors in the Bay Area. He is friendly, caring, and has a natural ability to put you at ease. It is rare to find a doctor who is so kind and compassionate. He was so easy to talk to and he has really made the decision easy. I had my procedure done on a Monday morning and bought my first pair of non-prescription sun glasses in 20 years on Sunday. Talk about liberating. From the first phone call and consultation to the actual procedure, Dr. Koo and the staff at his office were an absolute pleasure to deal with. It??s hard to believe the procedure takes less than 15 minutes! And in 1 day healing time, no more glasses or contacts. Not for swimming, not for skiing, not for reading the alarm clock in the morning or driving at night, no more glasses! The whole experience has been just great. Consider me a fan of Dr. Koo. Best choice for my eyes. I highly recommend him.

My son was bitten in the eye by a dog in 2007. Dr. Koo saw my son right away (we had to wait, of course, because he has a very busy practice, but my son was seen the *same day* I called) and treated him immediately, so he wouldn't have to wait to get the prescription to have some pain relief. He was also very thorough in explaining what had happened, why he was doing what he was doing, what to expect, and after the initial healing time, he had us schedule a couple of follow-up appointments to make certain everything was 100%. Dr. Koo has an incredible bedside manner, and I have complete confidence in him. And that's saying something, because usually I'm skeptical about doctors' abilities. Dr. Koo knows his stuff and obviously cares deeply about his patients and their families. I also found the staff helpful and pleasant. I've recommended Dr. Koo to many of my friends, family, and colleagues and they have all agreed with my assessment of Dr. Koo. We always joke how lucky we are to have such a great eye doctor "on call." I couldn't give a higher recommendation to him.

Was told by receptionist that Dr. Koo does removal of cyst on caruncle. Dr. Koo does not. Wasted my time and money. They did a vision check and pressure check of my eyes, even though I did not consent and protested. I was there to see Dr. Koo re the cyst on my caruncle, not for a regular eye exam. I told them this. Honesty and professionalism highly questionable.
