Dr. Sebastian Koga, MD

Dr Koga repaired my lumbar damages last year. He also discovered my back was broken, [which did not show up on x'rays, or MRI's and repaired that. Between his able assistant [P.A.?] I received up to date reports and professional responses I now another issue and will be seeing him shortly.5* rating.

I’ve hesitated to write my review because I can’t find the words to express how amazed I’ve been throughout the process of surgery with Dr. Koga and his entire team. I started having issues over four years ago, but we discovered that I had a syrinx in January of last year. I saw Dr. Koga for the first time in the spring. They were quick to get me scheduled, very patient and careful to pay attention to every detail, and the entire team was knowledgeable on so many areas applicable to all that I was going through. They worked to identify any other health concerns that might be causing issues rather than jumping right into doing surgery as other doctors have done. They watched the progression of my syringomyelia over the course of a couple months, and as soon as they realized that it was progressing, they set a plan in place to do surgery. The entire office and team were very professional while also being compassionate. They took as much time as needed during each and every appointment… to make sure I understand what was going on, and help me make an educated choice on having surgery. Surgery recovery has gone incredibly well over the past 6 months and provided major improvement. I can feel temperatures in my legs again! I’ve recommended Dr. Koga numerous times already by word of mouth, and now commend him and his team to you without any reservations.

Extremely professional Happy with my choice

Dr. Koga takes his time to explain everything that other doctors assume you won’t understand or won’t take the time to explain. Made me feel comfortable and confident. Great staff, great office. Multiple family members have had surgery with him and I understand why they trust him so much.

I have been a patient of Dr Koga and I have also worked with him to say that he is one of the most skillful neurosurgeons in Louisiana, who not only does routine spine surgeries but also takes on difficult brain tumors. Most doctors are average but he is exceptionally talented. He tells you all the information you need to know in detail. Sometimes will also give you extra anatomical details to help you understand what’s wrong. I would definitely go back to him for any more treatments.

For a neurosurgeon, you want someone who is brilliant, confident, and has a steady hand. He was able to explain what the surgery entailed and gave a detailed update when complete. Highly recommend.

Not a friendly doctor did not feel comfortable talking to him. He doesn't relate well with patients. Zero social skills. Avoid

Very nice Dr and very truthful
