5.0 star star star star starShe is a delight to work with because of her personality. She keeps good yet short notes so is able to pick right up from the history that matters to her patient's story. She is willing to answer duplicate questions and ask even after that if there are any more before she leaves. As she exits, she reminds me that she and her staff are always available if something more comes up.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Ahn listened well and suggested options for my case. I was a bit overwhelmed with all the new information. I scheduled a second visit with Dr. Ahn next week to go over some questions I have and to understand better my options for treatment.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Mary Ahn is all one could ask for in a surgeon: Knowledgeable, experienced, skilled and compassionate. She communicated promptly with my family after surgery while I was in recovery and called me immediately when my pathology results were ready. I will be her patient for a second surgery in January.
