Patient Reviews
Aug 28, 2024
Dr Kong performed a replacement of my tricuspid & mitral valves in 2022. He was very informative, kind, intelligent, and gentle. The surgery went well, although complicated! I will have to have these valves replaced again at some point and I really hope that Dr Kong is still practicing when that time comes. Thanks to Dr Kong and his care team for taking care of me, as I have a young child and am a single mom. My son is grateful to him for taking such great care of his mommy! Thanks so much for your expertise and talent.
