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.

Ruined my life
Although I am over 65, I am in very good health. I needed a routine meniscus repair. 5 years before, I had the surgery on my left knee and now the right. I had used a different doctor. I had hiked up Diamond Head the year before. This doctor accidentally touched a bone with his scope and 3 weeks later I woke up in the worst pain I've ever experienced. Called and he sent me for another MRI which showed the meniscus was great but he caused necrosis of the bone. I can't walk normally, I limp, I walk slow and can never run. I am a traveler and my life will never be normal again. He ruined my life.

I was referred to Dr. by a trusted family friend physician. Location is convenient. Wait time was non existent. Staff is friendly. Dr Kang himself was professional, patient, and knowledgeable. Really everything I could ask for. I would happily recommend him to any family or friends looking for an excellent OS in the area.

Dr. Kang did a great job on my knee. His stem cell surgery saved me from having to get replacement surgery. His staff was great and my procedure at NYU was very professional with great people from start to finish. Stephen L.
