Dr. Choung has done arthroscopic surgery on both of my hands and my husband's shoulder, all with great success. We love him and his staff are friendly and efficient.

Has presented all possible options of treatment to me after explaining thoroughly my orthopedic issues. He gives good, painless steroid injections and has provided other modes of pain treatment. I have been very satisfied with my treatment by Dr. Choung. I have spoken with several of his patients as well as my husband who had had two surgeries by Dr Choung

I am so very happy to have found Dr. Choung. I was living with an almost useless right hand and arm until he operated on me. He did a wonderful job and would definitely recommend him again and again. I now have mobility in my hand where it was almost gone and the healing was rapid. My neighbor, who is a retired nurse, said his stitching was as good as any plastic surgeon. I am so satisfied, that he will be doing the same operation on my left hand and arm as soon as the right is done healing. My husband and I will definitely be going to him for all orthopedic needs.

Dr. Choung is an excellent doctor. He listens to what you have to say and really tackles the problem. He performed my hip replacement and did a wonderful job. I also have good friends that go to Dr. Choung and are very happy. I would recommend Dr. Choung for an orthopedic doctor.

This Doctor is very rude and disrespectful when you ask him a question. Very insecure and not board certified in his specialty stay away.

I've had a hip replacement, left shoulder replacement, right shoulder repair, and total right knee replacement by Dr. Choung. I've had no problem with any of the procedures; in fact, the right knee replacement has been excellent. Surgeries were done at 7 Rivers, which has recently changed its joint replacement protocols and their new program is great. I'm still in rehab for the right knee, but began walking unassisted (cane or walker) within 18 days of the surgery.

I have been going to Dr Choung for several years, he has done a arthrscopy on my knee also I broke my ankle which I did not know was broken he did surgery on my ankle no problems . I did exactly what Dr. Choung told me to do and I have had no problems. I have talked to people that took their cast off early and did not follow the doctors instructions and wanted to blame him for not healing properly.
