Jason Yee

A very pleasant and friendly doctor. His equipments are new and up-to-date. Most importantly he is very patient and we don't feel rushed. Further plus point is that his clinic is located at the new ENT section of the hospital which is very quiet and separated from chaos of the other specialist clinics.
