Dr. Kwak performed proximal hamstring tendon repair back in July. I didn't spend much time researching different surgeons as time was of the essence. Luckily, Dr. Kwak couldn't have been a better choice. He's got that rare combination of precision and personality. I had an abnormally bad version of this injury, and yet recovery seems to have surpassed everything I've read online. Very little pain and excellent outcome 3.5 months post op. I couldn't be more grateful. Special props to his excellent staff as well. His coordinat... read more

Dr. Kwak performed a complicated 270deg labrum tear on my left shoulder, and a repair of a bucket-handle tear of my right knee meniscus, saving the whole healthy meniscus rather than just trimming it all out. Both had bone marrow aspirate infusions. This was difficult and time-consuming work. I feel he really did the most that could be done to get the best results, and the results were outstanding. (While he was at NJOS in Teaneck NJ)

I highly recommend Dr. Kwak. He performed hip surgery on me. It was the best decision I made. My therapist was impressed oh how quick I had recovered. Dr.kwak is very honest and has the best bed side manners.

Dr. Kwak is excellent doctor/orthopaedic surgeon. He did my carpal tunnel surgery 2015 and my hip labral tear 2017. I would definitely recommend him.

Office policy requires deposit regardless of having insurance coverage. I had an appointment when I showed up staff said they called to tell me which I did not receive and let me know they require $250 up front. My insurance confirmed that the office visit would be covered and when I said I didn’t have it they cancelled my appointment and told me to leave.

$250 non-negotiable deposit for simple office visit even if "in network". Unheard of. Stupid staff can't even tell you how much it will actually cost. Spoke to 4 of them too, all incompetent. Also, they will not disclose Dr.'s basic fee for simple office visit. How much do you charge? Well how much do you got? No other business would get away with this level of price opacity. BS, move on. Find an ethical practice...haha...and good luck with that.

My 77 year old mom recently had a TKR surgery performed by Dr.Kwak , and asked me to write the most favorable review. Aside from having a reputation of a very skilled knowledgeable and orthopedic surgeon , Dr. Kwak's demeanor and trustworthiness convinced my very hesitant mom to go for a surgery. It took me two years to persuade her to come for a consultation, and it took Dr. Kwak just a few minutes to explain the condition, and have her change her mind. We are forever grateful !!!!

I will totally recommend anybody to be treated by him. Dr. Kwak, he have demostrate the passion of his career. He is very professional, knowledgeable and dedicated to his profession. My father was treated by him for knees problem and the day of the office visit he made my father feel so comfortable with his friendly and positive attitude. Dr Kwak explained the trearment needed it for his problem and everything was so understandable. Thank you Dr Kwak.
