Dr. Eng is very caring! Great bed side manner as well! He’s top notch and listens, can’t ask for better! I wish I could give home 10 stars, if you need surgery visit dr Eng! My only wish is that he never retires because there isn’t enough doctors/surgeons as caring, compassionate or humble as Dr Eng. Lastly, he’s extremely busy because of his reputation, so appointments can be a wait, just not enough of him to go around! Thx you Dr. Eng for letting me be your patient! Your pal Eric O.!

Dr Eng Did a triple cervical fusion on my wife ,during the operation he found several bone spurs that did not show on the MRI. He took care of them as well. He did a fantastic job where other surgeons refused to operate because of the close proximatey to her spine. She can live a normal life again without severe pain thanks to Dr David Eng.

He did my back surgery and I just think this man is amazing!! My, only wish is that I had had him do my neck surgery back in 2005. Dr Eng has awesome skill, fantastic bedside manner , The team he has when he does surgery it is the best of the best! They leave nothing to chance , they are on top of everything and all of them are just awesome and make you feel at ease.
