Dr. Ho provided a well explained list of my options, answered my questions, and never made me feel rushed. Most impressive of all was when I began crying. Dr. Ho got a box of tissues, pulled some out, and handed them to me. When I apologized for crying, Dr. Ho said, "No. You have a lot going on." It was a short, simple response that comforted and touched me. I never would have expected that from a surgeon.

Dr. Ho was first rate, consistently, through a complicated and very successful treatment process. Dr. Ho's nurse, Melanie, was also excellent. A bad fall required a complex surgery to restore my right shoulder and arm. I have full use and flexibility again and most of my strength, and I am continuing to regain additional strength. I feel very fortunate to have been treated by Dr. Ho and his colleagues!
