Patient Reviews
Nov 20, 2022
NOVEMBER 19, 2022 I HAVE BEEN SEEING DR. CHOI FOR OVER THREE YEARS CONSISTENTLY NOW AND SHE IS NOTHING BUT KIND AND EXTREMELY KNOWLEGEABLE. LIKE MY 9-YEAR-OLD NEPHEW, SHE TESTED ABOVE THE 99TH PERCENTILE IN GRADE SCHOOL AND WAS CONSIDERED GIFTED AS PART OF THE “G.A.T.E” COMMUNITY FOR GIFTED STUDENTS. SHE HAS BEEN SO CONSISTENTLY GOOD TO ME AND HELPFUL THAT I EVEN INTRODUCED HER TO MY MOTHER, ESPECIALLY WHEN I WAS TOO SICK TO DRIVE OVER TO MY APPOINTMENTS MYSELF. FOR ME TO INTRODUCE MY MOTHER TO A DOCTOR IS HUGE. TODAY, I UNDERSTAND COMPLETELY WHY SHE WAS A GIFTED CHILD BECAUSE IT SHOWS IN HER EMPATHY, COMAPSSION AND SHE TRULY REVERES YOU WITH UNCONDITIONAL POSITIVE REGARD. PLUS, SHE IS BEYOND SMART AND WITTY. SHE UNDERSTANDS THE CONCEPT OF WHAT IT IS TRULY LIKE TO BE IN CONSTANT PAIN AND AGONY FROM SEVERE CHRONIC ILLNESS, AND I DON’T THINK I HAVE EVER SEEN HER LOSE HER TEMPER AND ATTITUDE WITH ME, EVER. DR. CHOI SEES BEYOND WHAT IT RIGHT IN FRONT OF US AND IT SHOWS IN HER DISPOSTION
