Patient Reviews
Mar 23, 2020
Dr. Kong performed valve replacement on me back in 2003. I was out of the hospital in 4 days. Dr. Kong in my eyes is the best surgeon I’ve ever had but most importantly the greatest person to have performing your surgery. He is fully transparent in the pre op meeting and is in no hurry. He listens to you and actually hears what you are saying. He is a no BS person/doctor. My heart has been great since the operation and my scar is near non existent. Thank you sir for giving me my second chance at life. Andrew
