Aug 02, 2021
I have been seeing Dr. Pong since my first heart attack, almost 12 years ago. I never realized someone could literally have your life in their hands and somehow they let you know it will all be ok. Dr. Pong has been with me through this journey, always there, always willing to listen, always winning my trust and valuing the love he must have to be such a incredible doctor. Thank you Dr. Pong, G. Welsh.
