Although it wasn't the fault of the doctor, the referral ended up not being for the right specialist. But the doctor we saw was really helpful and is still working with us to find the best doctor for the type of care we need.

Dr. Kang was probably the most well-informed doctor I have ever dealt with as far as my medical history and in explaining it to me, I really appreciate the trouble he went through going the extra mile. It was just a very, very positive experience. He's the best doctor I have ever gone to.

Yes, Dr. Kang, very thoughtful, excellent follow through, listens well, has empathy and allowed me to vent when I really needed to and was very caring in his responses to me which I was so grateful for. He did an excellent job on my surgery and I could not be happier.
