I was in pain.
Very reassuring and helpful.
Dr. Hong is a phenomenal doctor. He is extremely professional and also kind, caring and thinks of his patients needs first in every way. He offers treatments that help. His concern is for your well-being first and foremost. The only reason I'm leaving is because I'm moving out of state; otherwise, I never would have left his care.
Rather lengthy to wait for dr. to come in.
