"Full disclosure: I knew Dr. Ho’s parents before meeting Dr. Kevin as one of his patients at St. David's Hospital in Austin, Texas. My wife’s has been a registered nurse at the same hospital for two decades. When I needed to do a colonoscopy there, my wife chose Dr. Ho for me based on his thoroughness and how he related to patients and colleagues alike. He is beloved here in Austin. He treats everyone with utter respect and dignity in his calm demeanor. He is a humble and quiet man! No one is perfect; however, Dr. Ho is one of the most caring and hard-working, and brilliant people you can meet. Some of the negative reviewers misconstrued his calm demeanor as not being caring. My wife and I have 100% trust in Dr. Ho as a specialist in his field. Dr. Ho was an engineer like his accomplished father before graduating from medical school. He comes from a family of first-generation immigrants who have contributed immensely to the advancement of America in aerospace and nuclear technologies. It's truly unbecoming for anyone to question the work ethic of an accomplished physician like Dr. Ho. Dr. Ho graduated from some of the premier universities (Cornell, Harvard, Indiana) in America. How dare these negative reviewers question his professionalism and blame Dr. Ho for the presumed bad behavior of the front office staff. It's heartbreaking to read how the sterling image of a good man is being tarnished online by disgruntled reviewers. I hope Dr. Ho will return to Austin, Texas, where he is beloved. Healthcare professionals and educators and law enforcement officers are human beings like the rest of us. They deserve our respect and support too."
"Dr. Ho is professional with good bedside manners. He is very knowledgeable in his field and very caring towards his patients. I had GI problems that had landed me in the ER. After consulting with Dr. Ho, he had eased my fears and guided me with how to alleviate my symptoms. I trust his medical guidance and care."
"Dr. Ho is a rare find. He is professional, knowledgeable, thorough, patient and extremely prepared for any appointment. He presents options citing updated statistics with thoughtfulness towards the patient. I am the type of patient who goes into the doctor's office having done my research and listed out a dozen or more questions. Dr. Ho has no qualms to answer each and every question with care and empathy, and he provides a sense of calm and reassurance from his deep knowledge and experience. Best doctor ever. I highly recommend him."
"Dr Ho listens carefully to all you have to say."
"My visit at Dr. Ho’s office was pleasant. The front office staff was professional and I didn’t have to wait too long to see the Doctor. He was soft spoken and informative."

"Dr. Ho was one of the first doctors I visited after my recent move to Texas. I was impressed at how thorough he was during my initial medical inquiry part of my exam. I had colon cancer twice and he was determined to make sure he left no stone unturned. He then referred me to various doctors for evaluation. I am grateful for all that he does and the genuine care he has for my questions and medical concerns. He takes time with his patients and speaks to me in layman’s terms while making sure whatever procedures or diagnosis is understood. Whenever I go to a new doctor, there are questions and hesitations before the visit. When Dr. Ho introduced himself during my initial meeting, I knew I was in the right place. I must credit the staff from the front desk to scheduling, they are very courteous and professional. Thank you and May God bless you all."

"Not going to lie, I was a bit apprehensive upon scheduling when looking through some of the reviews but we really like Dr. Ho. He took time to listen to our concerns and explained next steps without making us feel rushed at all. It is in our nature to learn what we can do when our body seems off and we felt relieved to be able to ask him about natural remedies through food and diet without feeling dismissed. There are many specialists (and ER doctors honestly) that can get snarky because you have questions and they don't have time but this was not the case with Dr. Ho. He was kind, compassionate and thorough and I would definitely recommend. The only criticism I have is one of the office nurses was a bit on the short side when I wanted to verify they received medical records but I can cope with that as the nurse check out staff was kind and patient."
