The office has a new relaxing design feeling and is very clean. No long wait time and Dr. Bae took the time necessary to explain his observations and recomendations for treatment. He doesn't take medicare, but I guess if your that good, you don't need to. G.

Fast forward to December 1, 2009 and my cervical spine surgery with Dr. Bae. He told me after the surgery, you're lucky you were not completely paralyzed as when he got inside he found, not just a spine that needed repair but 3 disks that had shattered, "like eggshells" he said, all over my spinal cord. So a 3 hour surgery turned into 6 1/2 hours. I am convinced that had this been another surgeon my outcome would have been completely different! As it was, he picked each shard off delicately one at a time and gave me 3 new disks, titanium rods and I was good to go - home the day after surgery; up two days later at my desk writing! So today, 2026, I'm having some issues that are arthritis related in this same area and going back to my favorite Dr. Spine (Dr. Bae) :) to see if I can get a non-invasive remedy. He is a genius, a Michaelangelo of the spine and anyone going anywhere else is crazy! When it is your spine, you have to seek out the BEST - it's that simple. Dr. BAE IS THE BEST! A. S.

I was so debilitated by spinal stenosis that I had take a wheel chair to the plane, fly in a lie flat seat, and be wheeled off the plane to meet my ride. By the time I saw Dr. Bae for my surgery, I had tried PT, shots, painkillers, prescription anti inflammatories--literally everything. I had missed family events including a wedding and hadn't taken a pain free walk in years. Dr. Bae performed micro decompression surgery. I walked out of the clinic and have been walking ever since. It's been a month and I'm averaging 11,000 steps a day. I am eternally grateful for Dr. Bae. B.

The office was immaculate and very professionally run. I had high expectations of Dr Bae based on reputation and the fact three of my friends recently had successful procedures with him. Also, his PA Bernadette, who comes in for a prep prior to seeing Dr Bae was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful.
