Very pleased with my recent Lumber Laminectomy surgery performed by Dr Yoon. I was having a lot of numbness and pain shooting down left leg and surgery completed took away the problems I was having. Great surgeon and very easy to talk to! I would certainly use him again if needed.

Dr. Yoon is caring and has the most sincere concern for his patients. He is an extremely skilled physician who uses his skill to change his patient's lives. Would highly recommend and trust Dr. Yoon. We feel very fortunate to have had him perform major spine surgery on my 84 year old father due to previous doctor in the practice being unavailable for emergency surgery. Very thankful for the good results!

My wife required some extensive back surgery. After getting a 2nd opinion from Dr. Yoon, our reseach on his background showed some impressive information about his experience and accomplishments. Selecting Dr Yoon for her surgery was one of the best decisions we ever made, and The 6 hour surgery turned out to be highly successful. My wife had a 6 month recovery target and she made it with flying colors. Dr Yoon is skillful surgeon and a wonderful man and we highly recommend him.

Dr. Yoon was a pleasure to work with. He was very thorough in his evaluation of my condition and very efficient in his surgical performance. He was also very accurate in his post operative assessment of how my condition would improve over time. The care received at Emory exceeded my expectations - all of the medical professionals encountered during this experience were excellent.

Dr. Yoon provided easy to understand information regarding my diagnosis and then options that made sense and were easy for me to review and make an informed decision. He did not pressure me one way or the other, but presented all available options and did so with care and compassion.

Dr. Yoon basically gave me my life back. After a year of another back surgery, constant pain, missed work, and inability to do anything, he identified the problem, did outpatient surgery, and returned me to full mobility. My family and I are forever grateful

I highly DO NOT Recommend Dr. Yoon period. I had an ACDF 2 LEVEL 4/5,5/6 neck fusion on 12/18/2014. It failed! Had to have another surgery to correct this one this time from the back of the neck, Posterior fusion with Rods and screws. This surgery was on 11/5/2015. Do NOT sign anything stating anyone can touch you BC after paying experts thousands it's now known Dr. Yoon did not do the first surgery. He was only in the OR for a combined 30 min. 2 15 min visits. I hired him not an attendee/reside

Dr. Yoon was very welcoming, answered all my questions, was sympathetic, staff is awesomely friendly and welcoming. Everyone was super helpful, and knowledgeable. What I truly loved most is that I didn't feel rushed. Dr. Yoon, gave my family and I, eye to eye contact, confidence in his answers, and remained seated. Some Doctors stand, and wait at the door, which in my opinion says you're ready to go. After all the detailed introductions, and explainations, I was ready for the surgery. Thanks!

Dr. Yoon was abrupt, rude, and interrupted me while answering his first question What are you doing here today? I never completed a sentence without being interrupted during the minute exam. He refused to treat my condition because operating on my condition did not have a 95-99% chance of being completely successful. End of exam. I asked for a referral and he gave a partial name of someone he couldn't remember. I drove 3 hours each way for this exam just to be humiliated. NOT RECOMMENDED!
