I have only one hand that works. Dr Koch has cared for my good hand thru bruises, strains, trigger fingers, and carpal tunnel. She is excellent. She's very pleasant to talk to and she is very knowledgeable. She has given me advice on elbow & shoulder issues. Her care has made a huge positive impact on my one-handed life.

I saw Dr. Koch about thumb thinking surgery would be in order, and maybe worse having to endure a cortisone shot....I had one 14 years ago in different area of thumb and STILL remember the pain. Of course cortisone shot was the best recommendation with 70% success. She talked me through the ten seconds - and yes ONLY ten seconds. It wasn't bad at all and NO after pain from the shot as I had had many years ago. I connected with her when she walked in the room and was so glad I wouldn't lose use of thumb, even temporarily. I was also very thankful it was NOT arthritis as I have in so many joints. Tendonitis.....yea. As she said, "That we can fix." THANK YOU DR. KOCH.

Have seen Dr Koch for two thumb surgeries; wrist arthritis and would see her for everything if she wasn't a hand surgeon. She is a careful, excellent surgeon who is genuine. Pre and postoperative care was thorough. I have had a great experience at each clinic visit and with my care with Dr Koch. Would HIGHLY recommend her for finger, hand, wrist upper extremity surgery. I recommend her to everyone.

My husband and I both see Dr. Koch and feel she is an exceptional doctor. She listens tentatively to all your concerns, then explains options, surgeries, treatment plans and will answer any questions you have. You if very careful to explain them so you can understand everything. She is patient, caring and genuinely cares about you, as a person. I highly recommend this doctor!
