What an incredible doctor. So knowledgeable and calming and lovely, could not recommend him enough x
Really refreshing for a doctor to the take time to explain everything clearly. Dr Wong was very informative and patient.
I felt very reassured and confident with Dr Wong’s professionalism and knowledge.
I had a very pleasant experience seeing Dr Wong today. He was friendly, jovial and incredibly thorough in explaining everything to me, taking the time to answer all of my questions patiently. He went through all of my test results and scans with me in detail, which I really appreciated. He was very reassuring and clearly explained the follow-up process, so I know what to expect going forward. Dr Wong has the knowledge, professionalism and qualities you would want in a medical professional, and I feel very reassured knowing that I am in such capable hands.
Have never had the pleasure of seeing such a respectful and caring doctor until i met Dr Ernie Wong, he was extremely helpful and listened to all my questions and concerns and wanted to tailor the treatment so it suits my needs perfectly, made the appointment lighthearted and hopeful rather than another burden being added to the list. Its been an absolute pleasure, many thanks!
I had an excellent experience with Dr. Wong. He was very thorough and patiently explained the issues and next steps.
My recent , and first , consultation with Dr Wong was exemplary. I was so impressed that he had thoroughly pored over my recent medical history ( unrelated to my respiratory problems) and extrapolated any relevant information re scans, blood tests etc, all to aid his diagnosis. He offered clear advice as to the best way to manage any future problems. Atogether an outstandingly satisfactory consultation.
A very kind and highly knowledgeable clinician. Dr Wong takes time to get to the bottom of your health problems, listens intently to your concerns and come up with a plan of options. I would highly recommend
excellent asthma doctor
