Overview

Philosophy of care

My patient care philosophy is to treat people with respect and compassion. I empathize with anyone who wants to get back to a functional, pain-free way of life. My deep, personal commitment is to help all my patients live their best life.

I treat musculoskeletal and spinal disorders caused by degenerative conditions, disc herniations, scoliosis, spinal stenosis, and spondylolisthesis. My focus is on minimally invasive techniques that allow patients to recover faster, with less pain and less risk of compl

I am passionate about delivering the highest level of care to my patients. I provide a patient-centered, evidence-based approach and believe in exhausting all conservative options before surgery.

    I've rarely if ever had surgery before. I don't rcall him asking me if I had any concerns, what there were, etc.

    Since he was running late on the teleconference I felt rushed, and so did he.

    Very impressed with Dr Jung and his explanation of the surgical procedure that I will need. Sensitive to the fact that I only want the minimal amount of surgery required to solve my issue

    Dr Jung is the best. I was recommended to him by a friend and I have recommend Dr Jung to people I know with back issues.
