Sarah

I’m forever grateful to be in her care through my endometriosis journey. I was diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis but my previous doctor changed clinics and was no longer in network. I found Dr. Koythong through some online research and her clinic was able to see me right away. We scheduled surgery within a few months and my endometriosis is now healed. She was very caring, and understanding. She is also fully capable and knowledgeable from her experience, studies and her work in research studies. I highly recommend her.

Pelvic Pain Patient

Dr. Koythong is very, very caring, kind, professional, and personable. She made me feel comfortable, did not rush me into making any decisions, and provided me with lots of information to help me make decisions about my healthcare. I have already recommended her to all of my friends. If you need an EXCELLENT OB/GYN / gynecological surgeon, see Dr. Koythong. Thank you!

Pelvic Pain Patient

As my former residents, I knew I was in excellent hands when Dr. Koythong agreed to perform hysterectomy, aided by Dr. Thigpen. Her skill set allowed me to choose a completely vaginal or minimally invasive robotic approach with only 2 incisions. My recovery was expedient, requiring only 24 hours of narcotics, and I didn’t spend one night in the hospital. I was working in just 1 week from home and back in the office in 2. The complete experience at Texas Children’s was excellent. Thank you so very much, Tamisa!
