Dr. Ku is a delight. She has so much energy and enthusiasm for her practice. I’m just lucky to have her on my medical team. Today she gave me a lot of direction on what I should focusing on in the next year. Surprisingly is was not Calcium (I have osteoporosis) but instead keeping my weight up, getting enough protein, and exercising. I definitely felt energized from our visit.

Dr. Jeong Hee Ku displays all the qualities that I can consider to be characteristic of a good physician. She is kind and supportive. She is current on the changing complexities of endocrinology. She is frank about limitations of her best advice and lays out available options. She is an excellent and patient communicator. She really considers my current needs in a holistic manner and responds to each of them. When I leave an appointment with her, I feel hopeful, empowered, and freed from faulting myself for the challenges I have in managing my diabetes.
