Patient Reviews
Feb 27, 2019
Dr. Cho performed an emergency small intestine reconstruction surgery on me in December 2018. I am convinced he and Dr. Swedler from St. Francis saved my life. My family had been told there was a significant chance I wouldn't survive. When I met Dr. Cho after surgery, I found him to be very caring. In the times I saw him following surgery, I came to feel he must be a kind, gentle soul. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.
