  • Feb, 9 2026
    Dr. Kwon has ALWAYS been good at explaining what is going on. He explained what to expect from my neck surgery and made sure I understand why we are doing that first when my lower back hurts more, because my spinal cord is compressed in places and I need 3 levels done on my neck. He told me that he knows I don't like to take pain meds but to do that if I have pain that first week so I can heal. He always shows concern for my well being so I'm sure he does that with all of his patients. He's one of the BEST Drs this town has. So DON'T screw that up mulicare!

    I have been seeing Dr. Kwon for many years. In that time he has introduced various options for alleviating or lessening the pain and discomfort I live with every day. He is open to my ideas and presents me with emerging alternatives when new options are introduced to the market.I have adequate tools at my disposal provided by Dr. Kwon that allow me to have good quality of life in the face of what would otherwise leave me off my feet. I feel like Dr. Kwon is exceptionally intelligent and is always applying that intelligence toward possibilities that may be beneficial to my condition.

    Dr Kwon probably saved my life at this last appointment (medical issue unrelated to chronic pain).plus he still managed to complete the regular appointment. He is an incredibly compassionate doctor, and I'm so sorry lucky to be one of his patients!
  • Jul, 14 2025
    Dr Kwon is the most knowledgeable and kindest physician I have ever met in years of treatment for chronic back pain. He sincerely cares as well. He listens without rushing you then responds to each issue/question with a lot of information but in a way that is totally understandable. As busy as he is he still always makes me feel welcome and comfortable. There's no one who can top him in my opinion.
