Had a terrible pelvic fracture 6 months ago. Did not think I would ever walk again, which was very distressing to me. Dr Koehn was more than wonderful! Before the surgery, I only remember that he introduced himself and told me I would be going in for surgery. I was pretty out of it and just trusted that whatever needed to be done would be alright. It was. It took several months for me to get back to myself again, but I am happy to say I am walking, have returned to work and still here for my grandkids. I attribute this to the great care I received during a complicated surgery and the post surgery visits in his office. He is an amazing man, and very kind. Utah is blessed to have him! Thanks SEAN KOEHN MD

I have had a serious retinal problem for 11 years so I have been to a large number of retinal specialists in other states and here in Atlanta. So when I tell you Dr Sean Koh and his staff at Georgia Retina are the best, I know because I have seen other doctors who did not fix my problem and also did not seem to care about me as a patient. Dr Koh has a bit of an accent but once you get to know him, you realize how dedicated he is. He is funny too. Keep up the good work, Dr Koh. If you have a serious problem, he will help you.

This is the worst-est doctor at Georgia Retina, he gave me the wrong diagnosis, no surgery skills, he rely on guess work. If you want to go blind, go see this doctor. Bad doc..terrible, he has no clue.

My mother becme blind in one eye from acute macular degeneration before we came to Dr. Koh and I credit him with saving her vision in the other eye. I am a physician myself, and I thought his care was exemplary. He communicated to my elderly mother,was extremely helpful the times we contacted him after hours, and clearly cares about his patients. I highly recommend him
