Sharing Success

"This is the sort of letter one loves to write, especially about my friend and colleague, Wendell Wong, M.D., who I have known for over thirty years.

I have referred many patients to Wendell (Dr. Wong) in the past and they have always been extremely satisfied with their care. But recently, my wife Linda, had Lasik surgery with Dr. Wong. I was completely amazed!

The office is absolutely fabulous. It is technologically very modern. The staff is knowledgeable, courteous and very professional.

Wendell (Dr. Wong) himself is an amazing human being. His medical skills are of the highest caliber. He has never lost his spark or his ability to empathize with the patient.

My compliments to you and especially to Dr. Wong's operation in Torrance. You should be very proud."

"Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for taking such good care of me before and during my surgery and most of all for restoring my eyesight to what it was 43 years ago! I never thought I would see the day (no pun intended) that I would be able to see without glasses.

I am the first to admit I am not just a big wimp I am a huge wimp. So thank you Joe for holding my hand through the surgery and calming my nerves. I really needed that! But you were right.the actual surgery was painless, and over in a flash.

I feel like the poster child for LASIK surgery. While I tell everyone it is a miracle I know that it was really your skill and expertise that made all this possible. Thank you again to all of you. It was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life and I am thrilled with the results and care that you and your staff provided."

"I left your office last week with a survey form in my hand. Obviously, used by you and your staff to grade my level of satisfaction with reference to my eye surgery. That form is too small and insignificant for me to expound on the miracles you perform on a daily basis. Not just for me, but the many you serve with your talent. Yes, I said miracles. Every procedure was handled in the most caring and professional manner. I might add that the tears in my eyes after the surgery were not "Refresh Plus", but real!

One event really impressed me. Prior to commencing with the surgery, you laid your hands on my chest and said a prayer. That showed me just how special and humble you are as an individual. Asking God for his assistance to make sure all went well with the surgery. Thank you for that.

You are indeed a very special group of highly trained, motivated and loving people. I will always be reminded of that when I look at the world around me without the help of glasses. God bless all of you."

Below are things our happy patients have said regarding our services:

"I just wanted to show you my favorite toy. I feel so much safer now when I go riding. My old glasses used to vibrate in my helmet, and one time my contacts blew out of my eyes (ok, I might have been going a little bit too fast...)! I am so happy with my new eye and I share that fact with EVERYONE I can! Again, all my thanks"

"You are such a sweet and caring physician. I thank you for a very special gift."

Cathy Lee Crosby
ctress (Beverly Hills)

"Long live LASIK. No more glasses, no more contact lenses. What a wonderful operation. It is, in fact, the perfect operation. I am completely satisfied with my correction, and I am envious that I (as a cosmetic surgeon) don't have any operation that involves so little fuss and gives such immediate gratification..."

Peter Morse
M.D. (New Jersey)

"I would like to thank you and your wonderful staff for the wonderful time I had during my laser surgery. They were so professional (helpful, patient, knowledgeable, caring -- to name a few.) Thanks once again."

"Thanks for the new vision!"
