Patient Reviews
Nov 14, 2023
Doctor Ahn performed a tendon sheath surgery on my right thumb last year, and did the same on my left thumb this month. The pain medication he prescribed was not needed. His skill and precision negated the need for such medication. The incisions were done so precisely and closed up so neatly that you would think it was done by a plastic surgeon. No scars or telltale signs that either of these thumbs had ever been worked on. He is a very pleasant doctor with a wonderful disposition. His office staff and surgical staff are top notch! I would recommend him highly to anybody.
