My husband and I struggled for years to get pregnant. We went and saw so many infertility specialists in Dallas and Frisco. We are so happy and lucky to have met Dr. Ku. He is an amazing physician who truly cares about the patient. Dr. Ku was the ONLY infertility specialist out of all the infertility specialists that I went to see that treated us like family members. He took his time and went over all the issues and treatment options. Dr. Ku has the highest success rates in the Southwest region! We did IVF and we arenow pregnant! Yay!! No wonder he is a highly respected and award winning doc! We are so happy that we went to Dr. Ku. You should see him too!

I am so glad I went to see Dr. Ku! My husband and I struggled for so many years to get pregnant. We had seen other infertility specialists, even the one my insurance told me to go see. But none of them were as nice and smart and compassionate as Dr. Ku! Dr. Ku spent time talking to us and going over the details of our lab results and my husband's analysis. We made a plan together as a team so that both my husband and me were happy with the plan. And guess what!? Dr. Ku helped us get pregnant! Now I am 20 weeks pregnant with a girl! My whole family is so happy! I refer all my friends and family to Dr. Ku! Go see him if you want to a baby!

I am so happy I decided to see Dr. Ku! I had seen another fertility specialist before seeing or meeting Dr. Ku, he was actually my 2nd opinion. My husband and I, were not a fan of the previous specialist. Dr. Ku is the total opposite of him, he is very informative and made me feel comfortable and he is very knowledgeable. Dr. Ku has the best bed side manners, because all my obgyn's in my past have been females. We now have a boy & we just recently did an FET cyle and the beta came back positive!!! I am so happy that I went to see Dr. Ku, I love that he truly cares about you and really trying to help you get pregnant. I highly recommend anyone who has struggled with infertility to go see Dr. Ku! We certainly are glad we did & are very thankful for the success we had getting pregnant.
Thanks Dr Ku!!!!

I've done a ton of research and Dr. Ku is by far the best Infertility specialist in Dallas if not in the entire southwest area. He is knowledgable, has extremely high success rates, is compassionate, and is available to his patients. He has NEVER confused me with anyone else. Infertility is stressful. Dr. Ku's bedside manner is awesome and made all visits to him less stressful.

Let's face it ladies, you need Dr. Ku to help you get pregnant. Go to the best and most successful. Dr. Ku will get you a baby!

Future moms, take it from a mom to be, Dr. Ku is the only infertility specialist to go to!

My concern is this office has gotten too busy. Dr. Ku confuses me with other patients. One embryologist left much to be desired, both with her care of my embryo and bedside manner.

Dr. Ku is probably the best doctor I've ever seen. He is always punctual with incredibly low wait times, and he comes to collect me from the waiting room himself. He is incredibly kind and personable and easy to talk to. My husband and I had such a great time chatting with him during our first appointment. He took a good 45 minutes to talk to us and we were surprised to learn that he and his wife had also fought through infertility. He drew us an excellent diagram to explain what is going on inside my body (due to endometriosis) and how he was going to fix it. I didn't fully understand previously when doctors had half-heartedly explained. But more than all that, Dr. Ku seemed to understand the emotional struggle of infertility, he and his wife having experienced it personally. I think that understanding is evident in every aspect of his care. Due to my extensive medical history, he actually sent me to another surgeon in the area who uses different technology that he thought might be a better fit for me. I was surprised that he sent me elsewhere given his reputation, but he seemed to only have my best interests at heart. He said "if you were my wife, I'd want this guy to do your surgery." I am having that surgery done soon, and even though Dr. Ku is not doing the surgery, I've discussed concerns and questions with him along the way and he has helped me find answers and peace of mind as I prepare for this upcoming surgery. I have no doubt that my husband and I will be able to get pregnant someday, and that is in no small part due to Dr. Ku's excellent care and guidance.

I am an OB/Gyn and I send all my patients to see Dr. Ku because all my patients return pregnant and rave about how great he is! When I started to try and start a family but couldn't, I went to see Dr. Ku for my own struggles with infertility. Not only does Dr. Ku have a great reputation, he is smart, kind, compassionate, and is exactly what I want in an infertility physician. Not only that, he has won a ton of awards! Just look at the awards in his office. I chose Dr. Ku also because I knew he would help us. And he did! Now, we are expecting a baby boy! I am so excited and so glad that I went to Dr. Ku. I will continue to recommend him to all my patients. My other friends who are OB/Gyns also have gone to Dr. Ku and are now pregnant too. As an OB/Gyn, I highly recommend Dr. Ku...He's the infertility specialist that OB/Gyns choose to go to!

To all the men who are reading these reviews with your spouses to find the right doctor for fertility treatment, please stop searching. You have found him. My wife and I treated with another Doctor before coming to Dr. Ku, and at the consultation we found the light at the end of the tunnel. He provided his cell phone number for patients to text him with questions, and let me tell you, my wife had lots of questions. He listened to our concerns and drew a treatment plan for us. He didn't push us to ivf or any of those expensive procedures. My wife and I were at peace when we were under his care. Dr. Ku gets it. He understands what you're going through because he went through it just like you and me. We needed a doctor that understands when we were at rock bottom and what it takes to bring those happy tears to us. Dr. Ku, if you're reading this, you brought happiness and joy to us. 'Thank you' is the least that we could say to you. K&R

This office has a HUGE problem with communication. The nurses would each tell me a different story about my cycle, and left me more confused than ever. My main concern was Dr. Ku's lack of interest in alternative solutions, i.e. getting my husband tested before proceeding to IUI. He repeatedly said that because of my husband's low morphology levels, there was nothing we could except IUI or IVF. He never suggested for him to see a urologist. After two failed IUIs, my husband went to see a urologist who immediately noticed he had a varicocele vein in his left scrotum. The urologist said this condition explains the low morphology and low sperm count. After a simple procedure, my husbands condition is FIXED and we can now conceive NATURALLY. None of these options were offered by Dr. Ku or his staff. It seems they cared more about the money than our personal well being.
