Dr. Kwok is AMAZING very kind and knowledgeable!
She fully understands how to take care of me and my health [TRANSLATED]
My experience with Dr Kwok was outstanding, from our first appointment through surgery and then to after care. He is kind and compassionate, he explained my diagnosis and treatment options thoroughly and in a way that I felt included in the decision-making process, and I felt safe every step of the way.

Excellent, very patient and professional. [TRANSLATED]

Dr. Kwok is an excellent surgery and I am very pleased with his work. He is also a very kind person with an incredibly warm but professional bedside manner. I am so glad that we were able to meet and I chose him to be my surgeon.
Dr. Kwok was phenomenal from start to finish. From pre-op appointments, surgery day, and post-op appointments. He takes the time to listen and fully address all of your questions and concerns. He truly made me feel valued and never rushed during an appointment. I am also incredibly happy with the results of my procedure. I would recommend him a million times!
Listens to you, tells you what's needed,tells you what to expect. Doesn't candy coat anything.
Dr Kwok's level of professionalism upon meeting with him gives me peace of mind about how my surgery will go in the future. He was very respectful in every aspect during a visit that is a very difficult thing to go through. Some people might not think it matters, but his professional dress, grooming, and careful choice of language made me feel like I am in great hands with a very skilled and capable surgeon.
I love Dr. Kwoks soft spoken and gentle approach. He's serious and exact but light hearted too!
I came to this appointment to discuss reconstruction. I've been hesitant to get a mastectomy because I don't want to look deformed. Dr. Kwok assured me several times that I will NOT look normal or symmetrical or natural. He was not reassuring in any way and I left feeling like I'd made a huge mistake agreeing to a mastectomy. He was also dismissive of the discussion on a different sized implant (both at this appointment and the previous one) which made me feel like my needs and concerns were unimportant. All I was looking for was reassurance that he was going to do his best to make me look as normal as possible and that didn't happen. I would have thought that a plastic surgeon would make a special effort to get people looking as best they can after surgery, but he seemed resigned to just shoot for the bare minimum. I needed this appointment to go well, to make me feel better about surgery, but it made me feel worse. I did not feel seen or heard.

Dr. Kwok is patient, clear about treatment option and outcomes. He made me very confident about my upcoming surgery and I'm sure I'll be very pleased with the care and outcome.
