Dr Kwan is simply amazing and it has been through his consultation and support post my stroke that I have been able to find the acceptance of what happened and a return to my best. There is no doubt that I would recommend Dr Kwan for not only his medical prowess but also his compassionate manner and true commitment to patient care and overall well being.

I have known Dr Kwan for a few years and during that time I have had cause to contact him for help on a number of occasions. His advice and treatments have always solved my problems and the manner in which he guides me through whatever problem I need solving is always incredibly helpful. He is a truly great and dedicated doctor and I cannot recommend him highly enough .
