Mr Wong has been the most patient, warm, considerate medical professional I have experienced. I asked for a second opinion following a knee arthroscopy that continued to now settle after 18 months. Mr Wong started from scratch with investigations, he took the time to listen and understand and breakdown everything he was looking at and answered questions in the next steps. He was honest about my diagnosis but helpful and respectful. Mr Wong identified the issue due to his patience, diligence and communication skills. If he is your medical professional you are very lucky.

Mr Wong has now done both my hips so I can speak from experience. I cannot speak highly enough of the care and treatment I have had from him. He is exceptionally smiley and reassuring which fills one with confidence. He explains extremely clearly and is happy to answer questions. His colleagues speak highly of him. I cannot recommend him highly enough and if you are lucky enough to be treated by him, I am confident you will share my views.

Having had an uncomfortable experience dealing with a previous surgeon, I was delighted when I was referred to Mr Wong. He explains everything very clearly and is happy to answer questions. My hip operation went extremely well, and I am now completely pain free in that hip after 8 weeks. I have the neatest, almost invisible scar! He is very pleasant to deal with and I felt confident in his care. I am pleased that he will be operating on my other hip. Very highly recommended.

I have been a patient or Mr Wong for the past four years, I have had two knee replacements done in this time. Both surgeries went really well under the expertise and care of Mr Wong who is a wonderful and caring doctor. Many thanks, Naureen.
