What a good Dr., I had hernia surgery and had a extra situation due to open heart surgery. he came up with solution to connect mesh. The only thing I can say is he try's to do too many surgeries in one day. i waited 3 1/2 hours for my surgery.

I interviewed two surgeons for my gall bladder operation. I chose Dr. Chang because of his excellent reputation and ability to put me at ease regarding my procedure. He is not like some doctors who are so arrogant they can't take the time to discuss things or they brush aside your concerns. He explains things thoroughly, answers my questions and reassures me on what to expect. Though I have a tendency to scar easily, his expertise resulted in minimal scarring with no complications. He comes highly recommended by his peers and is well respected in the medical community. My fiance requires a hernia operation and will now be going to him as well. I can't say enough about this doctor. He's an asset to our community.
