Dr.Ton was right on top of my history. She listened intently and put a good plan together. I liked her very much.
Dr Ton made a really scary visit alot more comfortable. She explained everything so my wife and I could understand what is going on and what treatments are available. She was very punctual, and spent alot of time with us due to the complexity of my health. Would definitely recommend her to anyone. She also made sure to listen to all my questions ... Read More
