He is our blessing in our time of need!!!Jan 2025Excellent service!Dec 2024Dr Ooi gave clear and detailed explanations about condition and then answered all questions in a clear and understandable way.Dec 2024In my opinion I felt that the consultation was a bit rushed, maybe he was headed to a surgery or just coming back from one. But as a pt I'm glad that I like to do my own due diligence and follow up with a vascular Dr as well and go from there. Would I recommend him...maybe.
