"Hieu T. Ball, MD, MPH, es el mejor cirujano y especialista, me ayudo a volver a caminar, después de un accidente automovilistico, el me reemplazo 2 discos de mi cuello y me ayudo con una fusión en mi espalda baja, las heridas de las cirujias el doctor T. Ball me las dejo estéticamente perfectas,por que ni se notan, y el servicio que el y su equipo brinda es el mejor, son amables muy responsables y siempre se preocupan y llaman para preguntar como sigue la recuperación de el paciente además cuentan con servicio en español. No duden mi gente latina en pedir apoyo y ayuda en esta clínica cuentan con un servicio al cliente de 1000% que no les importe manejar de lejos yo lo hise y fue la mejor decisión por que preferí mi bienestar e ir con el mejor en vez de ir a otra clínica en la que ni me tratarán bien por ser latina. 1000 gracias a Hieu T. Ball, MD, MPH sin su ayuda yo no estaría caminando dios me lo bendiga y espero que siga ayudando a mi gente latina como a mi me ayudo. ???????????????????????? ...

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.

All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews.
