5/5

The entire process for my Squint Surgery was really smooth and quick. I was expecting to wait in line to see Dr Choong despite making a booking ahead as there was so many people. But he prioritised and respected my time. Talking to him was also very helpful and efficient, very friendly as well despite being so busy. My surgery and recovery went well too. Overall, it was an excellent experience!
