Highly intelligent, listened to my concerns, answered all questions.
-
When I tried to make my first appointment, I was told I needed a MRI. I told my primary care doctor who put in the orders, I checked that the MRI report was received and made my appointment. At my appointment with Dr.Jung, It was discovered It was not sufficient for Dr. Jung and I was told I needed to have another MRI. I feel like the MRI, that was required In order to make my appointment should have been reviewed and reordered as needed. So It was a waste of Dr. Jungs' time:(

Dr. Jung is very good at explaining things in terms I can easily understand. He answers all my questions.
