It has been a pleasure to meet Mr Yoon, from the 1st consultation his personality and demeanour allowed me to explain the problem and history fully. 6 weeks after my lumbar decompression revision, I am pain free, sleeping well and able to resume excercise in accordance with my physio. I feel very lucky to have met Mr Yoon.
