Testimonials

"I couldn’t ask for more"

“Dr. Kuo is an extremely kind, knowledgeable, out-of-the-box-thinking doctor and I couldn’t ask for more. He marries Eastern and Western medicine harmoniously. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who feels stuck or disenchanted.”

- Sara G., ZocDoc

"I have full confidence in his ability, knowledge, and skill"

“The first time I saw him he listened, believed, and helped me. So, for that act of professionalism and kindness I listen to Dr. Kuo’s suggestions about what to do about getting my cervical spine pain issues under control. I have full confidence in his ability, knowledge, and skill (he has not failed me). He will always work and try to better understand and lessen the pain you’re in.”

- Heather K., Yelp

"Best pain management Dr. on either coast"

“Dr. Kuo is hands down the best pain management Dr. on either coast! I know, as I have been avoiding spinal fusion for over 3 years and suffering with multiple lower lumbar issues my entire life.

Unlike every other Dr. I have worked with, he has been able to pinpoint the precise areas that cause my pain and as a result give me relief like no other.”
