Dr. Chang is horrible, rude, treats staff like slaves. He deserves a poor rating. Seems like early signs of dementia. Distracted each time I went in for pain med treatments. avoid at all costs.

After suffering for many years with chronic pelvic floor pain, which triggered chronic back pain, I discovered Dr. Eric Chang in Orange, CA. Dr. Chang patiently listened to my history and in his calming, caring demeanor, he laid out a plan to help me. All tests were performed in house. The staff both office and surgical were great!!! He has helped me to regain my life and I know he will continue to be there for me. I can not say enough good things about Dr Chang and the entire Staff. V. Mills
