Mr Tou Pin Chang is a very caring person. He explained everything to me before my operation and kept an eye on every stage of my recovery.If I did not understand anything Mr Chang would explain even if he had already told me.
I found Mr Chang to be friendly and would always ask me if I had any question nothing seemed to much for him and I never felt that he was in a rush.
I had a 9 hour operation and was very scared before and after my surgery i am just so thankful that Mr Chang was beside my side every step of the way.
I really can’t put into words how grateful I am that Mr Chang was my surgeon.

I first met Mr Chan in October 2022 which was 7 months after my stoma surgery. I wanted to have the reversal surgery and he explained all about this in detail. I decided I wasn’t mentally ready for the surgery and we met again in July 2023 when I decided to have this done and it was arranged for September 2023. It could not have gone better. It was a straightforward reversal with no need for a temporary stoma bag and performed by key hole surgery. I couldn’t have been more pleased with the results. My recovery was good and I left hospital 5 days later. I have recovered well at home and have just seen Mr Chan for a follow up appointment and he is very pleased with my recovery. I can not thank Mr Chan and his team enough for everything. They have been brilliant. I was very nervous having this second surgery after such an awful time with the first surgery. Mr Chan is a brilliant surgeon.
