Dr Wong gives the impression of a very experienced professional and creates a sense of security and confidence which is reassuring. He seems to be very busy and therefore doesn’t spend much time chatting which is understandable.

He is both reassuring and ensures you know what he has concluded in clear terms. I greatly prefer this approach - he isn’t patronising and treated me as an adult. Greatly appreciated.

I have referred patients to them

It gives me immense pleasure in providing a professional recommendation for Dr Voi Shim Wong, Consultant Gastroenterologist and a great colleague. He has looked after several of my patients, which I referred to him for Upper / Lower GI endoscopy (Gastroscopy / Colonoscopy). I received nothing short of a great feedback from all my patients re Dr Wong's professionalism, clinical skills and care that they received under his care. He works very hard and always remains available for his patients and colleagues who rely on his clinical acumen and expertise in managing patients with all types of gastroenterological diseases I strongly recommend him for all GI problems particularly those that warrant endoscopic intervention.
