I have been a patient of Dr Kao for well over 20 years and would never even consider another ENT Doctor. In the past, she set my broken nose did sinus surgery and deals with my hearing loss on a yearly basis. She has always been friendly and quite thorough when I have seen her. I am shocked at the number of negative comments from people who when you read most, are apparently looking for a counselor or 'buddy' as opposed to a straight forward medical professional.
The problem with me is not Dr Kao but the people who answer her office phone. Called because now my son has nodule on thyroid. They say wait a minute. 15 minutes later nothing. Hang up. Same person says same thing I said no. She says thanks and does it anyway. It is not right.
More than 10 years!
If you want skill and expertise, Dr. Kao is your doctor. If you want to be told what you want to hear, she probably isn’t. She recently performed surgery on me and I could not be happier with the results.
Dr. Kao upon entering the exam room seemed to have a chip on her shoulder. She seemed irritated with me was short with me and not friendly. When she examined me it was one, two three, rush rush rush. When she looked at my ears and sinuses she went so fast like going through the motions only, not very thorough. I was stunned like a deer in headlights at the way she made me feel and was not helpful at all. When I was leaving I passed her in the hallway and she just glared at me, no smile no nothing.. was very weird.
Went to see her Because I knew I was having major problems with my head. She totally blew off everything I said. And here I am 4 months later finding out I need surgery and have mold in my sinuses. She could have cared less in Listening to a patient that was begging for help. Your job as a physician is to help people and that has been changing.
I REALLY don't get the negative stuff. I've seen her twice now. She's pleasant, thorough and very clear in telling me what she's seeing and what she thinks we should do. She answers all of my questions. Seems to me she's an excellent doctor.
I have been going to Dr Kao since the late 90s or early 2000 I don’t understand these bad reviews Sure with her southern accent she may be tough to understand However she is the best ENT Dr in the area I trust her 100% I did a lot of research thru all my contacts at reading hospital and they all said dr Kao was the one to see She doesn’t have a lot of time to get to know all her patients or even spend much time with them But when you need to see her for a problem, her staff tries to get you in to see her ASAP And the staff i... read more
Took my 88 year old mother in to get her 6 mth. Check up. Dr. Kao definitely has a bad bed side manor not friendly but besides that she is rough with her patients. This morning my mother woke up with her ear canal full of dried blood from a simple wax cleaning. I called the doctor office and after not hearing anything for two hours I called them back. They said that the doctor said it was from the cleaning. My mother has been going to this office not this doctor for over 10 years and never had t
