Reviews from Our Patients

Dr Gowreeson did my mother’s heel surgery. He took the time to study her condition and already had all her details before he even saw her the first time. More importantly he was able to put her at ease and speak to her directly to explain what he planned to do and manage her treatment. His careful monitoring even of the physiotherapy helped my mother immensely in her recovery and allowed her to be able to walk at the earliest. Thank you Dr Gowreeson.

Dr Gowreeson is simply the best, patient and very detailed. No other words can describe. All the staff are also very helpful and efficient. Thank you so much

Am very satisfied with Dr Lai Kah Weng’s care and concern for my ongoing struggle with my lumbar. Having done rigorous exercises this many years, while being an office worker, huge amounts of stress and tension has been channeled, causing constant lower back aches. Dr Lai patiently explained the issue, did some checks, and made sure that I knew what was going on. Had some treatment plans in place, which I’m in the midst of right now. Thank you team!
