Patient Success Stories

Richard Liu

"I am very grateful to Dr. Joseph Pyun. I had suffered from severe back pain for a long time due to an accident. From the beginning, Dr. Pyun's service was excellent, very professional, and he explained everything about my problem. After undergoing surgery, today I feel much better. My improvement is very noticeable. After 4 months of recovery, I feel much better and I am infinitely grateful to Dr. Pyun. I can say and confirm that Dr. Pyun and his team are truly incredible and very professional in their work. An excellent surgeon"

Jose Macancela

"I'm two weeks out of cervical spine disc replacement and couldn't be happier and feel great. Met with Dr. Pyun for the first time and automatically felt comfort and he took the time to explain in detail everything about my conditions. I felt so comfortable that I didn't even get a second opinion and booked the surgery the next day. I woke up from my surgery and all the pain was gone, and honestly couldn't believe that I smiled right away. If you're having doubts or can't find a the right doctor that you can actually trust, this is your guy! 10/10"

Omar Dashoush

"Dr Pyun did a great job on my lower back and I had two previous back surgeries with a different doc they had failed both times I switched to him and got a fusion on L5S1 in Jan 25 this year jan 26 I was able to go snowboarding and this was something I thought I would never be able to do but thanks to Dr Pyun amazing work I was able to get back to house things after three days I was cooking and washing dishes things I was told would take a long time. I would highly recommend dr pyun for your surgery"

Josh Kranitz

"Dr Pyun is an excellent surgeon, after living in pain for over two years due to a spinal injury. I made the decision to have Dr. Pyun fix my spinal issue via surgery. I am currently 11 months post surgery and feel 95 percent better than i was before surgery. Even though my healing process is not 100 percent complete."

Colin Patterson

"All surgeries can be scary, and it's natural to think "Maybe I don't really need this." But I'm so glad I was forward-thinking and chose not to grow old living with this pain. Dr Pyun was incredible-not only in explaining my expected outcome, but also in geniunely comforting me through the process. He answered every question with patience and compassion, which truly put me at ease. I feel unbelievably better and can't thank him enough for relieving my lower back pain. Highly recommended!"
