James H. Ting, MD, FAAFP

Dr. Ting is by far one of the most knowledgable doctors i know. He is very thorough in his exam and i have 100% trust in his expert opinion. I have seen him on a number of occasions. both of which i first saw an orthopedic first and they misdiagnosed my problems. Once i started telling Dr. Ting my problem, he knew right away what the diagnosis was. moreover, he did a few exams on me that made me feel like he really knew what was going on. (ie he knew exactly where i’d be hurting and was able to replicate the pain). Dr. Ting is also very attentive and caring and does not ever make you feel like you are taking too much of his time. I highly recommend going to him for pretty much any joint/​muscle injury /​sports injury or even any injury at all. I’m pretty sure he’d know the solution. I drove 1 hr just to see him and it was so worth the drive. I even recommended him to my dad who also spoke very highly of him. He said Dr. Ting was his «dream come true» doctor that he’d been looking for.. haha no joke.

Service: ⁵⁄₅
Dr. Ting certainly knows what he is doing. I chose him because of his listed expertise in Orthopedics and Sports Medicine. His service, friendliness & knowledge from my perspective is ⁵⁄₅.
Price: ⁰⁄₅
Price is ridiculous at Newport Orthopedic Institute where I saw him. A 15 minute doctor face time amounted to a ridiculous $ 480 charged to my insurance company and X-​rays amounted to $ 120 a pop. No way my insurance is going to pay/​cover all of that.
Total: ²⁄₅
I would recommend seeing him only if money is not an issue to you. Or you believe your time & money is better spent seeing Dr. Ting than another potentially just as knowledgeable doctor.

Dr. Ting is one of the most genuine and caring doctors you’ll find in the OC. He is very thorough with his examination. He sincerely cares about the nature of your injury and how it impacts your quality of life. He deals with injuries conservatively without rushing you to surgery. I went in for a rotator cuff injury that had been nagging me for months. He quickly ordered an MRI to discover that the tear that I had was only a partial tear. He gave me a cortisone injection and sent me to a physical therapy. I was surprised to hear that he personally called my physical therapist to talk about the nature of my injury and the details of the rehab! WOW! Talk about going above and beyond the call of duty. After a couple months of rehab and reassurance from him that I would be OK returning back to playing golf, I am please to say that I am pain free and enjoying life without shoulder pain. Thanks Dr. Ting… you Rock!!!
