This arrogant doctor damage my son’s nerves during surgery and have no courage to admit it after. Be aleft to the good reviews from the very previous patients. They seems fake and misleading. Who would review a doctor 10 or even 30 years after the surgery.

We went all the way from Australia to Kaiser Permanente to Dr Pang because we thing he is the best for detethering surgery. But the result was really disappointing. Our baby has to be catheterized 5 times a day probably all through his life due to nerve damage in the surgery.

He advised my son for the surgery. My boy who was nearly normal before the surgery died in the surgery room and Dr Pang was the leading surgeon.

As my 45 year old son, who has NF1, faces surgery once again on his spine, this time in the lumbar region, I am forced to remember the brilliance of Dr. Pang. Through the NF foundation in Pittsburgh,PA we stumbled upon Dr. Pang at Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh. Since our son was quite small for his age, Dr. Pang agreed to perform surgery on our son although he was older than a usual pediatric case. The surgery was for the removal of tumors on C3,4, and 5 and it lasted every minute of 23 hours, no recovery time included. Of course, Dr. Pang was involved every minute of that time. Our son experienced severe loss of blood, not to mention the rigors of the protracted surgery itself. I remain dazzled and grateful for the complete concentration and dedication to the surgery and recovery exhibited by Dr. Pang. There was no doubt that the extremely positive outcome of this very serious surgery was a direct result of the talent and care of Dr. Pang. So today our son faces another… surgery on his spine for tumor removal and I can only hope and pray that another neurosurgeon of Dr. Pang's ability will come his way. Thank you more than you will ever know, Dr. Pang.
