Thank you, Again Dr !
I recently underwent back surgery performed by Dr. Albert Wong,and I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care I received.From the initial consultation to the post-operative follow-ups, Dr. Wong demonstrated an outstanding level of professionalism, compassion, and skills. He took the time to thoroughly explain my condition, the surgical procedure, and the expected recovery process, ensuring that I felt informed and confident every step of the way.The surgery itself was a remarkable success. Dr. Wong’s precision and expertise were evident, and I experienced significant relief from my symptoms almost immediately. The post-operative care provided by Dr. Wong and his team was equally impressive.I cannot thank Dr. Wong enough for his dedication and expertise. I highly recommend Dr. Wong to anyone in need of back surgery.He is truly a remarkable physician.Thank you, Dr. Wong, for your exceptional care and for making such a positive impact on my life.

Dr. Wong is a wonderful, caring, and thorough physician. I was referred to Dr Wong by my physical therapist. Another surgeon was insistent that I needed immediate spinal fusion surgery. Dr. Wong performed a much more thorough work up on my issues. I am so very thankful to be under the care of Dr. Wong.

I had done my share of searching for the right neurosurgeon which was not that easy as I am a opinionated retired physician. I am so glad about my choice. He has been great with all decisions he has made so far regarding my care including the surgery. I am feeling great without a significant pain for 12 days after decompression with Coflex interlaminar stabilization for a severe spinal stenosis at L4/L5.

I came with terrible back pain with sciatica and was rushed into the ER. Dr. Wong was my surgeon and provided excellent care and explained everything well. I wish I was on a PPO to continue seeing him again.

Dr. Wong is so kind and professional. He performed artificial disc replacement surgery on my neck 3 weeks ago. I was nervous about the process and how painful it could possibly be. He made everything go quick, smooth and with pain control that worked well. I am doing way better than I expected to be this quickly. I am so grateful to this extremely talented man.

I've been to a lot of doctors during thirty years of severe spine issues. Dr. Albert Wong is the best ever. I will continue to travel to his office even though it is not geographically convenient for me. He was interested in helping me find relief and we spoke at length and in great detail about my conditions and various treatment options.

I'm writing this review for my dad who had spine surgery with Dr Wong a few months ago. I'm very impressed with Dr Wong's skills & his bedside manner with his patients. My dad has been suffering with back pain for years & finally decided to seek a spine surgeon's opinion. Dr Wong gave my dad nonsurgical & surgical options & didn't try to pressure him into a surgery. After surgery, he followed up on my dad & made sure his recovery went smoothly. He even called my dad a few wks after surgery.

I was having excruciating back pain for years and finally had enough of it. After seeing multiple back doctors, I found Dr Wong & heard good things about him. Dr Wong did my back surgery, followed up on me even after my surgery & I am so grateful to have found him!! I've been able to go hiking with my daughter, swimming & bike riding again- things I haven't been able to do for years!!

Dr Wong was highly recommended as my family member's neurosurgeon. He was very thorough in his explanations and took the time to explain his plan of care. I am amazed at the outcome after surgery. Even after surgery, Dr. Wong continued with his exceptional care. He looks young, but is highly experienced and skilled. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a neurosurgeon!

This man is a miracle worker! I drove from Porterville for a second opinion for my back pain. I couldn't walk more than a block for the past two year. He imediatele said I had classic nerve compression. I had injection and drugs forever it seems like. but he showed me where all my nerves were getting squished. I was scarred about surgery, but it was the best thing I've ever done! After surgery I can walk and bicycle with my wife and kids again! I feel like I'm 40 again! Thank you Dr Wong!!! BH

My grandfather was having worsening leg pain and found to have a spinal tumor. We saw Dr Wong in the emergency room and he quickly put us all at ease. He described the tumor in detail and showed us all the pictures and described the surgery to us. We left the hospital knowing our grandfather was in good hands. His surgery went perfectly and he was walking down the hall the next day! We can't say enough thank yous to this wonderful man! PS the nurses at Cedars were amazing! 10 thumbs up!

Dr. Wong is an excellent doctor who truly cares. Not only is he a fantastic neurosurgeon who knows what he's doing but he was also amazing at following up with me for a long time until he felt comfortable that my back was back to normal. He even would check up on me for issues that he had nothing to do with but cared enough to help and give me suggestions on what to do. Hands down, I HIGHLY recommend him!

I had a broken neck from a 10ft fall at work and Dr Wong saved my life! He did a spinal fusion and I was able to move my arms again without any pain! He spent so much time with me and my wife and was very attentive in the hospital every day when he saw me. Even on the weekends he checked on me every day and called me at home after I left to make sure I was well. Great doctor, one of the best in LA!
