Dr. Wai has one of the best bedside manners I have encountered. She made me feel comfortable discussing my issues. Then did a wonderful job providing me my treatment options. Felt like my health both mental and physical was in great hands. All on a last minute appointment. So happy with my care provider !

My entire experience with Dr Wai was more than very good, it was excellent. She listens. She is concerned. Sad he makes me feel cared for.

I'm still coughing & spitting up yellow, but the phlegm has decreased some. She listens to my lungs & said they were fine. She thought I would get better on my own. It's been 6 weeks but I think I'm getting better, except the cough, I'm using my inhalers.
