From the time you drive in to drive out, it was a pleasant experience. The reception and the staff at the clinic were all very friendly and willing to listen and help. The best was when meeting with Dr. Chan Mei Wai. She was absolutely caring and very knowledgeable. It was one of the best hospital experiences I have had. Please keep it up
