  1. I thought about Angieslist or something similar to bring up how frustrating it is to rely on other doctors to fix Dr. Hung's mistakes. At present, I personally know four people who have had abdominal surgeries performed by him. Each of them know several others who have been referred to him. Here is the problem. The four I know have had to see other doctors to (or try to) repair his mistakes. In two of those cases, the Dr. who went in later said there was too much damage done to keep recurring hernia issues from being a life long event. The damage was done because Hung took too much healthy tissue out so that any mesh could not be attached. Two of my friends had him perform what is called component seperation surgery. This is an intense procedure. Both women have been back to see other doctors because his work is less than stellar. Both women have had multiple surgeries. One, has been in the O.R. a total of 19 times. One friend had issues surrounding bleeding ulcers. Having to have part of her stomach removed was the obvious resolution for Dr. Hung. The first time he went in, he didnt take enough tissue and had a leak in his sutures. On round two, he figured it would be better to remove more tissue, recuding her total stomach size to less than a walnut. Now, this same woman has been in three times to get her hernias repaired.... Both doctors said whoever went in took too much out to attach mesh to for the hernia repairs to hold. Had Hung done as he should have, his closing technique would never had to been redone by others. One doctor said he has gone behind Dr. Hung several times to clean up his mess. Sometimes, he has not been able to do well in that clean up process. The best advice is choose your surgeon wisely.
