Patient Reviews
Sep 28, 2023
Dr. Kwan is an excellent doctor, he is a bit of a rebel in that his goal is to keep you OFF dialysis, keep you healthy and he is the most dedicated doctor I have ever seen. He literally stays as late as it takes to see all of his patients in the office that day. That said, he seriously needs to upgrade his facility and his staff. He is older and may not want to spend the funds but things seem to be rather inefficient and a bit behind the times, appointments are way overscheduled and staff seems less than knowledgeable about the way to run an office. He needs to implement a computer system with software that could save everyone time, my chiropractor is a one man show who is the model of efficiency thanks to a small investment. I love Dr Kwan but dread my appointments because of the 3-4 hour wait times, the inability to pay by any kind of debit or credit card, old office that is kind of creepy and doesn't feel very sanitary.
