Excellent. Direct. To the point. Told me what I needed to know

All excellent. He was very informative and knew a lot of my health history. I felt like we had already met. Very comfortable environment.

The clinic had already received my most recent MRI from another provider team.

I felt at ease right away with Dr. Jung. Not only Is he knowledgeable, but he seems to care about his patients. I would definitely recommend him for anyone with spinal issues.
-
Excellent
-
Was unwilling to discuss how to improve function. The only out come measure he was willing to discuss was pain reduction. He agreed my back presents serious deterioration but had no constructive interventions. I got the feeling he was protecting his own success and had little empathy for the functional problems that I tried to present
-
Solid preparation.
-
Dr. Jung is kind, patient, and extremely competent.
-
I had an exciting excellent appointment with Dr Jung.

Gave me the best diagnosis I could expect!!
