    *Dr. Wong has provided exceptional care to me and gave me treatment options, listens to my goals and supported me to reach them. The nursing staff has been attentive and provided dressing changes and answers questions. *Kristy Blair, RN has gone above and beyond completing paperwork for employer, getting MD orders and answering questions, assisting with communication with *Dr. Wong efficiently.
