Dr. Koga attended the University of California, Davis for his bachelor’s degree in biological sciences (with an emphasis in physiology, neurobiology, and behavior). Following his graduation, he decided to pursue a career in podiatry and went on to complete his doctorate in podiatric medicine at the California School of Podiatric Medicine in Oakland.
