If yes would you like more information on this, save the PDF for further conversation with your HCP.

    Dr Tsang listened to me about all my ailments and addressed one at a time. I was on a medicine that I did not need to be on, and Dr Tsang told me to stop it (after being on it for more than 10 years by a different cardiologist). I feel so much better ever since. I feel younger. I have more energy than ever before... Thank you Dr Tsang for your kindness and care.

    Outstanding doctor. She is kind, caring, compassionate, clear, and won the trust and love from my 89 year old mother who looks forward to seeing her each time. My mother does not listen to anyone else. I cannot thank Dr. Tsang enough for taking great care of both my parents.
