Brian Hwang, MD, FAANS - Advanced Neurosurgery & Spine Surgery - Endoscopic Surgery Specialist

I am beyond grateful to Dr. Hwang for the outstanding care he provided. He performed a very successful Anterior lumbar interbody fusion surgery and I felt instant relief on my back afterward. Dr. Wong truly took his time during surgery to make sure everything was done correctly and with great precision! What stood out most was his constant communication with My Family , which gave us also much peace of mind, his professionalism, compassion, and attention to details made a world of a difference in my recovery. I got my life back! Thanks to his skill and dedication. Recovery has gone smoothly and being able to walk with out pain again came much easier than I expected. I have been able to bounce back quickly and I owe that to Dr. Hwang‘s excellent work. I’m so thankful to God that he gui

I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Dr. Hwang and my spinal fusion surgery. From the very beginning, he took an incredible amount of time to carefully explain my MRI in detail, which helped me fully understand my condition and feel confident moving forward with surgery. That level of transparency and patience made all the difference in my decision to proceed with Dr. Hwang. His bedside manner is truly phenomenal. Before surgery, he personally came in to speak with me and walk me through exactly what would happen. Knowing I had nerve damage, he also arranged for a neurosurgeon to come in and explain the surgical process in greater detail, which helped ease my anxiety and made me feel completely informed and supported. The nurses at Mission Hospital were equally wo

While vacationing in San Clemente, my 75 year old dad was body surfing and suffered an “Over the Falls” injury. He broke his C1, C2, T2, T3,T4, T5, T12, and a rib. Even though the injury was severe and the future was uncertain, we knew that we were blessed with several miracles that day. The miracle of my dad still being with us, that he had not suffered damage to his spinal cord, and that Dr. Hwang was the emergency room neurosurgeon on call. From our initial consultation, Dr. Hwang thoroughly impressed us through his extraordinary combination of medical knowledge and empathetic care. He didn't just see a set of scans; he saw a person and genuinely listened to our story. We never felt rushed or unheard. There were several of us in the room and my sister did not have a chair.

My experience with Dr. Brain Hwang has been life-changing. After ten months of inadequate care for a herniated disc that left me wheelchair-bound, I felt hopeless. A nurse from my personal health insurance recommended Dr. Hwang, and from our first meeting, his calm demeanor and understanding of my condition gave me hope. His team provided exceptional care before and after surgery, ensuring I was pain-free and addressing my concerns. Taking my first step after nearly a year was exhilarating. Dr. Hwang continued to check on my recovery personally, and now, three weeks post-surgery, I am grateful to be regaining my strength and mobility. He treated me like family, and I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Dr Hwang is not only an exceptional Surgeon , he is an exceptional human being. He truly cares about his patients. The care continues beyond the surgery. Prior to surgery , he explains and always has time to address questions and concerns. I had a serious back surgery and was in pain constantly. I am 3 months post op and my pain is gone. I cannot thank him enough for his skill and care. I highly recommend Dr. Hwang. He goes above and beyond for his patients.
