Dr. Wong was pleasant and understanding. She checked out the pain I was complaining about and was able to educate me on what it was, how it could be treated, and what she recommended me to do. I was in and out of her office in about 20 minutes. Great doctor. Thanks Dr. Wong!
It had been a while since I visited a doctor, and Dr. Wong did a great job listening to and discussing all of my concerns. She was very upfront and honest about the pros and cons of different potential treatments and never made me feel rushed or like she was recommending things unnecessarily.
