Who's going to explain what have been going on for example my back for years and year

Dr. Choi is an amazing surgeon. He is extremely knowledgeable, kind, patient and truly cares about his patients. I recommend him often.

Dr. Choi was amazing and explained things in such a clear way. This is not my first experience with back issues but he explained things to me that no other doctor over the last 20 years has told me. He is also very personable and easy to talk to. The only frustration I had was the process to get into be seen, it takes forever to get the referral processed (5-6 weeks), not to mention the xrays and mri you need to get done before even submitting the referral. But got scheduled quickly once it was processed.

I have seen a number of doctors. Dr. Choi is extremely pleasant, knowledgeable, caring and competent and professional. It was obvious he cared deeply about me as a patient and wanted to find the root cause of my problem not treat the symptoms as others wanted to do. I went from a doctor who wanted to fuse my entire back to Dr Choi who said " After all the your answers to my questions, the tests I have done with you today, and looking at the X-rays and mri I am convinced the surgery they proposed for you will not solve your problem. I'm not sure what is causing it but I propose a nuclear resonance test, new nerve conduction study and then I'll have a better idea what we need to do to help you. We will sit and have a plan to move forward together. Dr Choi is a diagnostician who cares deeply about helping his patients in the short and long term and listens to his patients, thinks about what they say and sees us as a team working together.
