Patient Testimonials
July 5, 2023
This is my personal experience of seeing Dr. Arnold Chin. First, I want to express my infinite respect and gratitude to him. Second, I hope that people who suffer from the same illness as me can also be lucky enough to receive his medical treatment.
Six years ago I had prostate cancer and was lucky to find Dr. Chin. On the day of the first visit, he spent a lot of time going through my thick medical records and clearly recommending the surgery I needed. Under the professional care of him and his team, I made a full recovery.
Last year, I had a sudden kidney stone attack, The doctor in the nearby hospital did not handle the operation well, leaving sequelae. I immediately thought of Dr. Chin, but I was not sure if he would like to take over the unfinished work of other doctor. Later, I still asked for his opinion, Unexpectedly, he immediately agreed and completed the follow-up treatment.
Dr. Chin is the best doctor I have ever seen in my life. He is professional, responsible, and patient. He even answers my questions during holidays.
Grateful patient, R. C.
