He is wonderful! My PCP was treating me as a type 2 diabetic and Khoo said I was actually a type 1, just be doing a simple blood test. It was like pulling teeth to get my PCP to send me to an endo. She kept saying I know I can get it under control...yeah with actos and byetta, which are both off the market now!!! I have the best insulin pump and CGM now, my life is so much better!!!

Saw this doctor for a PCOS. Not thrilled at all with how he treated me as a person and a patient. I was misinformed on treatment and when I switched to a new order, I have been doing way better with treatment and being informed. DO NOT RECOMMEND

Dr Khoo is one of the best doctor I had to visit in my live. Very professional, spend time with me to explain problem until I understood every thing. Office staff is horrible. No one is picking the phone. I needed to reschedule my appointment and called three days in the row. When I (after pushing different buttons) get to the point that someone needs to pick up the phone and answer only thing I had PLEASE SATY ON THE LINE.YOUR CALL WILL BE ANSWERED AS RECEIVED After 10-15 minutes waiting every time I just give up. Last time they even screw my appointment time and I come late. Dr Khoo call me himself to apologize and explain me thing I needed to know related to my visit.Great Doctor but office staff really bad
