It's been 10 years since my last one, so it was a distant blur. Her facility is very modern. The surgery center (National Ambulatory), next door, is just as nice. On the day of the test, the people were extremely pleasant and informative. Walked me through all the steps and what to expect. The anesthesiologist reminded me of a slender version of Dwayne "the rock" Johnson. :D Very nice guy. Dr. Nguyen showed up on time and assured me that all will go well. Once I woke up from the exam, it was like I took a short nap. All good and ready to go home. It was a very smooth process and I would highly recommend Dr. Nguyen and her team!

I had been putting off getting a colonoscopy for about 5 years because I really didn't like the…read moreidea and couldn't find a doctor I felt comfortable with. I actually chose a couple of doctors before but ended up canceling both times. Finally, after more searching, I found Dr. Kristina Hobson in Los Gatos. To be honest, when I first walked into her office, I was already looking for an excuse to cancel again. But once I spoke with her, I was really impressed with her knowledge and the way she explained everything, so I decided to keep my appointment. Today was my procedure at Silicon Valley Surgery Center, and I had such a great experience. The facility was clean, calm, and very nice. Every single person I interacted with was wonderful. From the front desk to Barbara, who helped review my paperwork everyone was kind and welcoming. My first nurse, Kay, was incredibly nice, knowledgeable, and professional. When she went on break, Nicole took over she was also amazing. I'm not a fan of needles at all, but she did my IV so gently and with so much care. Then Kat, the third nurse, took me to the procedure room she was kind, calm, and very professional. Dr. Michael Block, the anesthesiologist, was excellent. He actually texted me the night before to ask if I wanted to review everything ahead of time or on the day of the procedure, which I really appreciated. We exchanged a few messages, and then he spoke with me again before the procedure and explained everything clearly. He was confident, knowledgeable, and very reassuring. In the procedure room, I fell asleep within seconds and woke up quickly afterward feeling great. Within about 30 minutes, I felt completely fine. I was even able to take calls and respond to emails. And now, about Dr. Hobson ,she is truly a 10 out of 10. Honestly, the entire experience was 10 out of 10. From the office to the surgery center, every single nurse and staff member was exceptional. I'm a very detail-oriented and perfectionist person because of my job, so I don't say this lightly. Something I was so scared of and postponed for 5 years turned into such a smooth and positive experience. Thank you to everyone

While some people seem to have positive experiences with him, it seems that he reserves his professionalism for certain people and not others. Beware. He is unwilling to spend 5 minutes doing something that could change somebody's life for the better. I am undergoing treatment with him and other specialists for why I keep on losing my voice for weeks at a time. I simply needed accommodations for my hoarse voice and LOSING my voice for significant periods of time. This has significantly impacted my ability to participate in class. My voice is GONE. It can come back one day and be completely gone the next day. It is very normal to seek academic accommodations for a loss of voice. For example, if you are taking a language class, sometimes you need to push out your deadlines for presenting if you literally don't have a voice. My school does this through the disabled students department. And currently, consistently losing my voice has become a disability because I literally can't talk and complete some of my assignments. Many teachers ONLY accept accommodations through the disabled students program: informal requests are often denied. He is the first doctor I have ever met who has refused to provide any kind of letter simply asking for accommodations surrounding a lost voice--e.g. something as simple as "this student needs to have flexible deadlines as they often lose their voice. Currently I am not clear on what the diagnosis is, but I request flexibility for their voice loss. Their loss of voice affects them to effectively participate verbally in class, so deadlines may need to be pushed until they regain their voice." Instead, he sent a very rude and low-effort email saying that he is unwilling to write me an accommodations letter simply because he doesn't know what my issue is and disagrees with the other specialist. This is unacceptable. For example, let's say somebody has some other terrible, similarly disabling disease. It might take a couple of months for the specialists to agree on a diagnosis, but they could still be suffering and their ability to participate in society, work, school, etc. is completely affected. They should get accommodations. I'm getting diagnoses or medical opinions thrown at me left and right. Even if different doctors have different opinions, ultimately, one thing remains the same: I have lost my voice for almost 20 days in one month and continue to be hoarse or lose it altogether some days. Other people had recommended this doctor to me. I had high hopes. I have never encountered such an irresponsible, uncaring, and callous doctor before. I don't doubt that he is probably academically brilliant. I just think that he doesn't realize that taking 5-10 minutes out of his day to fill out a form could change someone's life for the better. Even more malicious: perhaps he does, and chooses not to because as a specialist, he is above this kind of work.
