Dr. John Kuo, MD

Dr John kuo and his staff is amazing in what they do!! Thru their care and Dr Kuo guidance im exciting to say we are expecting our first baby!! My husband and I took on this journey a year and a half ago and they were with us every step of the way. “Blue”, we are so grateful for u. She kept us informed and when our anxiety was thru the roof she kept us calm. On 7th week pregnancy I spotted and was so worried. Dr Kuo instructed us on what to do and kept in touch with us through out the day until everything was ok. I am so appreciative.

Dr. Kuo is simply extraordinary. His unwavering support, professionalism, and kindness have profoundly impacted my life. I cannot express enough gratitude for his exceptional care. Without a doubt, he is the best doctor I have ever met.

We had consulted a few other IVF doctors before finding Dr. Kuo, but after some research we found Dr. Kuo and after we read his reviews, we decided to schedule a consultation with him. From the moment we had our initial consult with him, it was only positive experiences from that point on. Our amazing nurse Blue keeps us informed about all important details and she was always next to us throughout our challenging journey.The entire staff also were very kind and efficient. Dr Kuo was always there to answer our questions and address any concerns we had. It was a great advantage to have his support, and we always felt like we had someone by our side. I am currently 11 weeks pregnant, and even though we graduated from his office last week, Dr. Kuo continues to provide us with support. He follows up with us to ensure everything is going well. We consider ourselves lucky to have found him and his team, as they were all truly incredible!

We are happy to have embarked on our IVF journey with Dr. Kuo. Dr. Kuo and his entire team’s conscientiousness has left a lasting impression on us. Their professionalism, guidance, and competencies are second to none. We went through egg retrieval and embryo transfer processes with Dr. Kuo. Dr. Kuo always provides clear and thorough explanations of treatment options and procedures. He customizes treatment plan for each patient individually based on their body and circle. When we message him with our questions, his response is always in lightning speed. Our fertility nurse Blue consistently follows up to remind us of upcoming appointments, medications need to be taken, the necessary cares after procedures and a lot of other miscellaneous but important items. Going through the process can be emotionally draining. Blue has always showed empathy and understanding towards our needs and concerns. She is always there to cheer us up through all the ups and downs. We were also touched by Martin (Papa Kuo) who left his phone number to us and answered our call very late in the day when we had a question about injections. We cannot thank Dr. Kuo and his team enough. The entire team has gone above and beyond to make sure each patient is treated as their VIP. They prioritize quality over quantity. We highly recommend Dr. Kuo and his team to anyone who is seeking fertility treatments.

Dr. Kuo is exactly what I was looking for in a fertility doctor. He is extremely competent, kind, empathetic, and detail-oriented. He was confident in helping me achieve my dreams. Most importantly, what I found truly valuable was that he was available and responsive. Blue was very pleasant to work with as well as the rest of his staff. Overall, I had a very positive experience and I highly recommend Dr. Kuo to any women who is struggling to get pregnant or want to preserve their eggs.

Dr. Kuo is the best! After years of infertility and failures elsewhere, we are now expecting twins thanks to Dr. Kuo and everyone at IVF Fertility Center! He is meticulous and takes pride in his practice. You get a direct communication line with him and your nurse coordinator (shout out to Blue and Eliana!) to use anytime. Dr. Kuo also does every ultrasound himself, so you see him at every single appointment. I never waited for an appointment and everything was scheduled according to my body- so he will see patients 7 days a week! Thank you Dr. Kuo and IVF Fertility Center for a great and successful experience!

We came to Dr. Kuo’s clinic for help following OB’s recommendation. Due to Covid restrictions, we completed our first consultation with Dr. Kuo via video. We were impressed with Dr. Kuo’s experience. He gave us lots of valuable information about IVF, especially details on the actions for each step during the first meeting. Dr. Kuo's professionalism and gentle attitude towards patients make us feel at ease and we are determined to continue to seek help from Dr. Kuo. We have been very happy with our decision since then. During the IVF treatment process, Dr. Kuo and his team kept monitoring my conditions and actively modifying treatment plan for each cycle to achieve the best quality of embryo. Dr. Kuo kept us informed with all the test results and went over the details of our treatment calendar with us in every office visit. Dr. Kuo also always responded to our questions in time, even at night and during weekend. Dr. Kuo’s excellent skills for egg retrieval and embryo transfer greatly helped increasing the successful rate for us. We got successful result in the end. A baby chose us to be her parents. We still remember vividly the smile on Dr. Kuo’s face when he told us the good result and congratulated us. We were deeply moved by his sincerity. His team is amazing too. All the nurses and assistants are very nice and professional. They made us feel easy during all the visits. Special praise goes to Patient IVF Coordinator Blue, who thoughtfully provided us with a lot of help throughout the entire IVF process. Initially, we were placed on the waiting list and told the waiting period to see Dr. Kuo might be as long as 8 months. As soon as on time slot became available, Blue contacted us immediately to help us schedule a consultation with Dr. Kuo. After the consultation, she helped us set up a chat group for communication. For every subsequent follow-up appointment, she promptly confirmed the appointment time, medication order, and all other matters related to the office visit. The most important thing is that her positive attitude provided us energy, emotional support and encouragement when we were nervous and anxious. I was happy every time I met her. She brought us not only excellent service, but also good luck. Even after we “graduated” from Dr. Kuo’s clinic, Dr. Kuo and his team still respond to our questions and check on the status of our baby. We strongly recommend Dr. Kuo and his team to anyone who is seeking IVF help.

Just wanted to drop a note to those of you reviewing doctors, IVF’s clinics, etc. Here’s our story. When we got married in 2018, I was 49 and my wife was 39. For both of us this was our first marriage, no kids before for either of us. We pretty much jumped in right away after marriage with the process of trying to create embryos. I think I sort of knew this wasn’t necessarily going to be the easiest process, but all my wife seemed to know is that she had several relatives and friends of friends who’d easily become pregnant in their mid-40’s, and there’s no reason (with medical advancements) we should not easily be able to have a child. Cut to 2022, through several rounds of IVF at another clinic, and we managed to produce a grand total of one embryo (created in 2019) which passed all the tests. My wife was a mess. Each successive unsuccessful effort led to a greater sense of angst and pressure. We were very nervous about having the doctor and clinic where we’d made the one embryo over four years implant and oversee our one chance at having a baby. Too many patients, too many nurses, too much activity always happening there. It was such a business at that place. We needed to trust our one embryo with the right doctor. Somehow my wife found Dr. Kuo. It took us six or seven months to get into see him (he limits his patients). We did try one more round of IVF when we finally got in the clinic, but it did not work (I’m convinced it was too late for us to make any more embryos at that point). We transferred the embryo from the other clinic to Dr. Kuo. The moment of truth finally arrived in July 2022, when it was time to implant our one embryo and see what happens. Whether we would ever have a child would come down to the efforts and judgement of one doctor, one clinic, and only one attempt. But just when we were getting ready to give it a shot my wife got Covid, so July was off. We mutually decided with the doctor that she should rest in August after a rough Covid battle, so August was off. Then came September, October and November 2022, her lining did not match up perfectly (via the ERA test), and Dr. Kuo recommended against implanting. After six months of almost implanting my wife had no nerves left, but Dr. Kuo consistently recommended against implanting the embryo until the time was just right. Finally in December 2022, Dr. Kuo told my wife the ERA test looked good, and it was time to implant. And we did it. And finally, here in August 2023, with me at the age of 54 and my wife at the age of 44, we had a baby, and she’s perfect….I can’t believe it! I will forever believe we would not have had this child without the beautiful treatment of Dr. John Kuo, his wonderful clinic and team (particularly his ultra-caring and supportive nurse Blue who is an angel (she comforted and encouraged my wife so often in challenging times)). We were not big clients, we did not pay exorbitant fees to this doctor. We were a regular patient/couple, who was in the care of Dr. Kuo and his clinic for months and months of nervous non-progress. They waited patiently with us for many months (we certainly didn’t add to the clinic’s bottom line in the second half of 2022), and they supported and reassured my wife, and when the time was right, Dr. Kuo and his team simply delivered. Again, I can’t believe it. You’ll never find a better doctor.

There is a reason why Dr. Kuo has a waitlist and we were too impatient to see him when we first started our infertility journey. So if you are looking, do not hesitate to call and JUST WAIT. We made a huge mistake of rushing to another fertility clinic that was affiliated with a well-known group. It led to a 2 year long nightmare with the other clinic. We went through 3 cycles of IVF with only 2 embryos in the end and a failed transfer. To make matters worse, they introduced a pelvic infection that put me in the hospital twice. In the end, I had to go through two surgeries and ultimately remove my right tube because of what happened. We lost all hope until we foolishly realized that we were in the wrong hands. We switched to Dr. Kuo and the level of care was night to day! Even with all the wonderful reviews, Dr. Kuo and his team still exceeded our expectations!! He is incredibly thorough, smart and treats you like a person, not a number. He adjusts your medications to your needs (not some generic protocol) and you're not left in the dark about what to expect. His team including Eliana and Blue are amazing and compassionate and make you feel at ease through the process. They are always available for any questions and REALLY REALLY want you to succeed. With Dr. Kuo, we did a single IVF cycle, got 4 embryos and a successful FIRST transfer. I'm now 10 weeks pregnant and beyond grateful for the hope they gave back to us. Dr. Kuo is a one of a kind, world class doctor! Going through infertility is heartbreaking. You don't want to waste your time, emotional health and finances on the wrong clinic. We cannot wait meet our miracle baby.

My husband and I highly recommend Dr. Kuo. He is the unicorn of fertility doctors! His office is a boutique IVF office that offers specialized individual care. The big difference between Dr. Kuo and other IVF Doctors is that he spends so much time with each of his patients. After every appointment, even simple blood draws he sits down with you and goes over all your questions and concerns. He also pays attention to all the little details to best optimize each cycle so you are getting the most for your money. He really looks out for his patients wallets which is VERY rare.  He also gives you his direct cell phone number that you can text 24/7 and he responds quickly no matter if it's the weekend or late at night. Dr. Kuo is also at every one of your appointments even on weekends and holidays. He also calls you with test results the same day if they are available. On top of that his office staff is AMAZING! They are all very attentive with paperwork and are so sweet and supportive. You can tell they all really love their jobs and like working with Dr. Kuo. We LOVED our coordinator Eliana. She was so kind and always made us feel at ease.  My husband and I are pregnant with our first child thanks to Dr. Kuo. I had my sister transfer over to Dr. Kuo after she had poor experiences with other fertility doctors. Knowing that she is in good hands gives me such a piece of mind. If all fertility doctors could be like Dr. Kuo a lot of couples could be spared a lot of unnecessary heartache and financial strain.  

We are so happy that we found Dr. Kuo! He is the best physician to care for you on your fertility journey! He does not see too many patients at a time in order to give you dedicated, personalized care, so when you call in for an initial appointment the next availability may be many months away. But sometimes there are cancellations, and you can get in earlier like we did (~3 month wait time). So, get on the waiting list as soon as you can! Dr. Kuo genuinely cares about you as a patient and your success on your fertility journey. We went to another fertility clinic before going to see Dr. Kuo, and at the other clinic we felt like they were all about the bottom line and always pushing us to do IVF. Dr. Kuo gave us options that were suitable for us even though they may not be the most revenue generating for him. Also Dr. Kuo is an excellent clinician with top-notch skills. All the procedures were painful at the other clinic, but with Dr. Kuo nothing was painful because he is careful and not in a rush. He is also patient with us and respectful of our decision-making in the fertility journey process. After trying a couple rounds of IUI, we were finally ready to start the IVF process in December, but to our surprise we got pregnant on our own right before we started that cycle! Dr. Kuo continued to diligently care for us through the first 10 weeks even though we got pregnant naturally. He is accessible by cell phone whenever we had questions or concerns and got back to us quickly. Eliana, our nurse, was also very helpful and efficient in getting things done, offering support, and answering any questions that we had. In the office, Martin was passionate about teaching us how to properly use the medication, and we always left his office with a smile on our face because of his positive energy. We have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Kuo and his entire office! They have been caring, supportive, and an integral part of our fertility journey, and we can't wait to meet our baby boy this summer!

BEST IVF DOCTOR, Dr. Kuo. If you are desperate to have a baby and want the best odds, go to Dr. Kuo – IVF Fertility Center. He has the most knowledge and treatment for IVF. We failed at HRC (which is an average clinic) after 4 retrieval cycles and 2 failed transfers. My wife and I decided to give it one last shot. We researched best IVF doctors through all the available data, personally interviewed 7 doctors in Los Angeles, and selected Dr. Kuo. All the other posts about his services and treatment are completely valid based on our experience. From our experience, the key to success with IVF is to improve egg/sperm quality, and doctor to provide guidance/analysis to determine any adjustments to your body needs and treatment. Dr. Kuo provides the BEST in the industry. We are very fortunate to have a baby on the way. Thanks much Dr. Kuo.

My husband likes to call Dr. Kuo a "perfectionist in his art" and I would agree. I don't think I've every come across a doctor so meticulous in his craft. Sometimes I feel like he overexplains and honestly there are times when I don't understand what he is doing, but in the end, I know that he has a plan for me. I just graduated at 10 weeks. It goes without saying that the IVF journey is an emotionally, physically, and financially draining process. If you can remove a layer of worry that your RE knows what he is doing and is also available 24/7 and on weekends (which is not common with other RE's), it helps immensely in dealing with all of the unknown's you face. From the wonderful nurse Eliana (and Blue) to his phlebotomist Amy, and his front staff, everyone has been very positive and kind. You think it's very long process and there are times when Dr. Kuo tells me that I have to wait a cycle because the timing is not ideal, but I know that in the end with him, his goal is the same as mine - a healthy pregnancy, and for that I'm forever grateful to him and his team.

Dr. Kuo is the best fertility doctor I have met. Look no further!Not only he gave us our baby(10 weeks pregnant with a baby boy!)but he was the most detailed and caring fertility doctor i've seen!On the first appointment he spent about 1 hour to go through our fertility history and discuss options.He is the only doctor, who actually performs all of the ultrasounds.Dr. Guo provides his patients with his personal contact number, If I have any questions, he will answer them patiently.And all the team is amazing,Blue was our nurse and she arranged everything for us ,she was wonderful. And Amy, she's great too. She's the nurse who draws the blood. She's very professional. love the facility, everything looks clean. We got pregnant in our first try with them. We are so happy and thankful we found them. They are the best!

I cannot express the difference it makes when your doctor treats you like a human being instead of the next check on a checklist. Dr. Kuo and his talented team have created by far the most welcoming, knowledgeable, and comprehensive medical practice that I have ever experienced. My husband and I very recently graduated at 10 weeks pregnant! It has been a challenging process, but throughout, I never once doubted that we were in good hands. Dr. Kuo has created a team of extremely supportive and friendly people who take the time to make you feel welcomed and valued. Your results and data are never a secret. Dr. Kuo always takes the time to explain and communicates very effectively. Questions and concerns are always answered promptly via text, email, or phone call. If I didn’t feel like “bothering” Dr. Kuo with something that I felt was too trivial, I was able to contact our nurse Eliana who provided positive, bolstering support that helped me immensely during this process. Dr. Kuo and his team are always available! We’ve had appointments and procedures on weekends and holidays. I felt prioritized and every appointment was made with my individual data in mind. If it was better for the cycle, then that was what was done. We were given the freedom to choose how to proceed. Initially, my husband and I were nervous about immediately jumping into IVF. Dr. Kuo explained our options and provided us with recommendations based on what he felt would give us the highest chance of success given our unique situation. There was never pressure to jump into a procedure if we were not comfortable. This was especially true when lining up the timing for our successful transfer. Dr. Kuo gave us the option of waiting until the cycle was perfect. Honestly, I am very torn to have graduated from IVF. I am so grateful and relieved to have made it this far, but am simultaneously dubious with the notion of moving on to another doctor. I cannot imagine a better team and know that the bar has been set very high for future doctors and nurses. You will not regret working with Dr. Kuo and I highly recommend IVF Fertility Center.

We just graduated from Dr. Kuo's IVF clinic and we are 10 weeks pregnant. After years of trying with other clinics, we found out about Dr. Kuo online and we are SO glad that we found him. From start to finish, everything was top notch. They were so accommodating to our appointment time. He also gives you his personal number and email during the process so if there are any questions or concern, he is there to answer it. Then there is Blue, who was just as wonderful throughout the whole process. She explained to us what was going to happen and gave us a lot of input on what she thinks, which helped us out tremendously. She was so much more excited that we had graduated which show how much she was invested in us. Overall, everyone at the office was great, from the front ladies to all the nurses as well as Martin. The experience couldn't have been better. I would recommend Dr. Kuo to anyone having infertility issues.

I have amazing experience going through my first IVF, I don’t even have a bruise, everything went super smooth, and I believe it’s because I had the best doctor! All his staff was so nice and he been there for me 24/7. I get pregnant from first transfer. I’m so grateful. Thank you

We had the best experience with Dr. John Kuo IVF Fertility. Dr.John Kuo is extremely knowledgeable, patient, caring and a loving doc. And Blue is very nice and patient. They always made us feel comfortable and at ease through the entire process. It was our first try of IUI and I got pregnant. I felt so lucky and I am so thankful that I had Dr. John Kuo and Blue’s support along the way. We definitely recommend Dr.John Kuo IVF Fertility, best price, best service.

After going through 3 different IVF centers and multiple IUI’s we finally got referred to Dr. Kuo through a close friend who had a successful IVF story. We waited a few months for our first consultation. His resume was impressive in itself and as soon as you walk into his clinic you’ll see all the well deserved awards hanging from ceiling to floor in the waiting room. During the consultation we met with Dr. Kuo and his nurse Eliana. He thoroughly went through each page of my medical record with us. Taking notes throughout and explained to us our best option and what all of that would entail. Before the consult ended Eliana sent a text in a group chat between herself, Dr. Kuo, My Husband and I in case we ever had any questions or concerns they can be easily reached. As we all know most Dr’s do not give cell numbers to their patients. All the experiences we’ve had at the different IVF clinics we’ve never felt that personal and exclusive feeling. It always felt like we were just some number coming through and hardly met with the Dr, it was always another NP or PA. Throughout the Egg Retrieval, ERA cycles, Frozen Embryo Transfer, Prenatal visits we always felt important to Dr. Kuo and his team. Dr. Kuo makes sure that his office is open even on Sundays or Holidays, depending on what is best for his Patient’s and the timing of their cycle (You won’t be able to find that kind of service anywhere!) Dr. Kuo was very thorough, his attention to detail is amazing, always available for any questions or concerns regardless of the time or day, always took the time to explain everything to us (multiple times if needed, haha), he personally calls for all lab results and treatment plans, trustworthy and upfront on outcomes. His whole team was wonderful. Receptionists were professional, friendly and efficient from the moment you walk in. Phlebotomist Judith was always so nice and an expert at drawing my blood, she made it as painless as possible. Martin who took care of teaching us about all the medications and how to administer them was always so funny, patient and informative. Eliana was always by Dr. Kuo’s side during the whole process which made it easier for us because the positive support she gave during all our visits and communication, prescriptions to the pharmacy, any paperwork for work, request for medical records or my disability, and so much more. You truly feel as if Dr. Kuo is just as invested in this journey as you and your partner are, which is very important. We are fortunate enough to say that we are pregnant, we are now 15 weeks! We can’t thank Dr. Kuo enough for all he’s done for me and family.

We did our first round of IVF and had a great experience with Dr. Kuou and his staff. Blue was very kind and detailed with her explanations. I always appreciated it because the entire process is so overwhelming. She's such a warm, funny and gregarious nurse. Judith was an amazing phlebototmist! She never bruised my arm like other places. Dr. Kuo is very attentive and detailed. He goes over your chart with grade detail. The best part was having a group chat on Wechat where we could ask questions and get responses quickly. I was always seen promptly for appointments which is important because I was going to appointments during my lunch break. We are currently pregnant after our first transfer thanks to Dr. Kuo and his wonderful staff.
