Dr Song is simply the best there is! He addresses the problem in a way that is understandable, clear and concise.
May-2020
Dr. Song informed me on the complete extent of my shoulder injury and the surgical procedure necessary to correct the problem. I was prepared with an extensive list of questions eager to have them answered. When he finished all that he had to say and asked if I had questions, I realized that he had not only addressed all of my concerns, but gave me an education as well. If his surgical skills are as good as his teaching, then I will have my shoulder back as good as new.

Dr. Song is fabulous. I suffered for 2 years and visited other doctors to no avail, in one visit he was able to figure out the root cause to my problem.

You were very personable from the first day, listened to my layman explanation and took your time to figure out the problem. Never change.
