I had my first hip replacement by another surgeon in 2010. I developed a stabbing pain down the outside of my leg within a few years after the replacement, but after many visits to other orthopaedic doctors, none of them were able to determine the cause or resolve the issue. Finally, in 2018, I met Dr. Bong, and I believe that it was just his experience and instincts that suggested to him that the underlying problem was metallosis caused by the metal-on-metal prosthetic device implanted in my initial surgery. It pretty much destroyed the tissue in my entire left leg. Dr. Bong replaced the head of the joint, and fortunately, I was able to recover a good portion of my muscle tissue in the following couple of years. I am so grateful to have had the expertise and precision of Dr. Bong. And, he is a great guy! Thank you!

Dr. Bong replaced my left hip in April 2023. It was amazing how quickly it was and the exceptional care. Dr. Bong did a terrific job. It's only been 4 months, I forget I had surgery, and how the healing process went. The daily texts to help.me through the healing not only reassured me of my progress, the exercises were fantastic. Dr. Bong made this so easy for me and I would absolutely suggest to others to go to him. You'll be in good hands. Thank you Dr. Bong and the entire staff at OAW and ProHealth!

Dr Bong did both my hip replacements. My first one got infected 4 days later. He was so concerned he came to the hospital from his home to try to resolve it asap. He was very caring and spends time talking to you, like he's not in a hurry. Then there's the different color shoes. When my knees need replacing, it's him that I want to do my surgery.

Dr Bong did both of my hips along with my mother's and mother in laws I have recommended him to several of my friends along with my husband and younger son. I liked his bedside manor and the way he always makes you feel comfortable when discussing options.

Dr Bong performed my hip replacement back in June of 2020. From start to finish, it was a literal breeze. 3 visits after surgery and 2 years later, my life has been changed from that surgery. I can golf, walk for miles, and just live a pain free life without gimping around. If you need the surgery, I highly recommend Dr. Bong to be your surgeon!!

I needed a surgeon that specialized in trauma and to communicate in a compassionate manner with honesty about the severity of my injury. I was thankful to have Dr. Bong take my case and do his best for my surgery. It is because of his expertise I am on my road to recovery.
