We were referred to Dr. Kang by a previous provider. The previous provider sent instructions directly to Dr. Kang, which Dr. Kang has failed to follow twice in a row. This resulted in pain and suffering that could have been completely avoided had he done his job correctly. When confronted with the physical records of his incompetence, Dr. Kang denied any wrongdoing and tried to convince us that we were misinterpreting the records compared to the instructions given to the provider. Do not go to this man if you want a doctor that actually cares
