Original Complaint against Dr. Hoyman Hong published at DirtyScam.com says, verbatim –

Dr. Hoyman Hong seemed like he was great, in the beginning. I went to see him for severe sciatic pain, piriformis pain, and bulging discs, upon the recommendation of my orthopedist.Now I think that he just doesn’t care about his patients.The first thing he did was write a ton of prescriptions, which I wasn’t excited about, and didn’t end up taking – all they do is mask the pain vs. fix the problem.I had two cortisone injections (done by Dr. Hong) which didn’t work and an in office local injections into my piriformis, which was extremely painful, over a period of a couple of months.He continued to have me come into the office every couple of weeks, and I wasn’t getting any better.After the injections failed to work, Dr. Hong suggested that I have some ART done, which I did, but it also failed to work.At this point, and getting desperate, I felt like I needed to take some things into my own hands. I tried rolfing, traction and continued going to my chiropractor.I called Dr. Hong’s office after a few weeks to talk to him about my care. After 3 messages, and the last one being very nasty, he finally returned my phone call.We spoke about getting extra benefits for traction to be done by a physical therapist.He said he needed to write a letter, and that he would email me. It’s been a month…I have called and emailed, and I STILL don’t have the letter.I finally sent a nasty email letting him know my thoughts, and got no response.For a pain management doctor, he certainly doesn’t care that his patients are in pain.I wouldn’t see him again and definitely DON’T recommend him to anyone.
