I worked with Mr Chan during the last few months and we took care of a few colorectal cancer patients together. I found Mr Chan an exceptional surgeon, who's easily approachable and excellent to the patients. Mr Chan undertook de-bulking surgery for a patient, who was left with no treatment options due to recurrent bowel obstruction- amazingly, this patient was able to have chemotherapy and now seems to be benefiting from the treatment. I would highly recommend Mr Christopher for simple or complicated bowel cancer patients, both in early stage or metastatic settings.
