Dr. Satkunan Mark Gnanapathy was both skilled and empathetic throughout my procedure. His calm and professional approach helped me feel at ease and confident in his care. I also want to extend my thanks to Dr. David Leong Wei Jie, the anesthesiologist. From our initial consultation to the procedure, he thoroughly reviewed my medical history and addressed all my concerns patiently. A special thanks goes to the nurses in the treatment room, Lisa and Atigah, for their attentive support during my daily dressing.
