Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Had a laminectomy in 2022. Excellent surgeon Dr. Chang is.

Appointment
I had an appointment today 9/19/22 at 12 pm. I arrived at his office at 1130 am and while checking in was told I needed to reschedule and that they tried calling me 3 times to reschedule I showed her my phone where there was 1 call on 9/15 and a voice mail I let her listen to it as it told me this is confirmation for Mondays appointment at 12 pm and for me to bring g the paperwork and discuss from my mri. She went away came back and said they could take me but it would be 2 to 3 hour wait. As I was leaving to go get an organized doctor I heard a patient say did you forget about me I have a 10 am appointment and it is 1230 now. Don't waist your time with this unorganized doctor

I've had 3 back surgeries and a cervical spine surgery with Dr. Chang. I'm still walking since others said I'm not supposed to be. Grateful to him for keeping me upright.

Where do I begin on what an mazing surgeon AND man Dr. Chang is! He’s performed my 2 back surgeries and I would never recommend ANYONE else! Unfortunately, as much as I love him, scheduling a new appointment means another surgery. However, knowing Dr Chang’s bedside manner, knowledge, time spent with you, the time he’ll take carefully explaining options-sometimes to not have to endure surgery-I know I’m in the best hands. He is not knife happy like most surgeons & he is so caring.
