Dr Huang and his staff are amazing. Dr. Huang gave me a very thorough exam and fantastic explanation of my condition using imaging results. I value his opinion and professionalism. Chelsey is just the best! We are blessed to have doctors like Dr. Huang to help us navigate and find the best solutions to our individual health issues.

Dr. Huang was absolute professional, detailed and generous with his time. He made sure that he explained everything thoroughly and that I understood everything that is going on in my body and what my options are to stop these things where they are and hopefully regain some of my function and strength back.

I first saw Dr. Huang for a second opinion on 3/10/2025. I was impressed that he took the time to review all of my past MRI's and x-rays explaining the results in a manner I understood. Dr. Huang explained two surgical options to me advising the least invasive. I left his office more confident that there is a remedy for the constant pain. ON 9/24/2026 committed to having Decompression Disc Spine; L2-S1 minimal decompression surgery. I was scheduled for 12/9/2025 but I wasn't medically cleared. 3/17/2026 I finally had surgery. Dr. Huang was very attentive Pre-op Post-op . He visits me in recovery and the following morning he checked on me once again. I am forever grateful. Although I am recovering and have some numbness, I don't have the agonizing pain that ran down both my legs. The spasms have subsided and I could stand straight.

Dr Huang is an excellent surgeon. I had neck surgery in 2018 and now I’m having other issues with my back which I came back to Dr Huang to discuss and see what he would recommend me to do . I totally trust Dr Huang and I have also recommended him to my friends and all were pleased with the outcome .

Dr. Huang is an amazing doctor. I went back to him because he did surgery in my neck 3 years ago and did a remarkable job. I now wanted his opinion on my lower back. He is caring, confident, friendly and bright.

Dr. Huang was extremely professional. He took the time to answer & address ALL my questions prior to surgery, both in person and via video. After surgery while in the recovery room Dr. Huang came by to make sure I was okay. The day after my surgery Dr. Huang came by to explain how the surgery went and answered any additional questions I had and advised me I would be discharged and able to go home.Two weeks later his team followed up with me to find out how I was doing. I had a positive experience with the HSS and will definitely recommend HSS and Dr. Huang.
