Please read this review and save yourself the trouble. This man has no desire to communicate. When asking about my symptoms he constantly cut me off and moved on. how can he understand the problem if he did not even listen? It took him an hour to prick me with one set of needles and leave me be for 10 minutes before declaring that I am allergic to mold and dust mites. Until asked he did not tell me what to do to alleive or avoid triggers. After pricking my arm he cleaned it with sticky pink calomine and did not even wipe it. I had to ask for a tissue on my way out and he hesitated and directed me to the washroom. Also his secretary will call you a 100 times once you are referred. God knows he must need the referrals, I am not sure how or why any Dr would refer out to him. So if you want a Dr who will communicate, take your medical history and then give you advice after testing then I suggest you avoid this one.

Disrespectful, patronizing, condescending, rude. Did not listen to me, interrupted me, told me he would listen to my questions after but then brushed them off and made a phone call during the appt after the receptionist came to give him a message, was one of the biggest waste of time, and one of the rudest people I have ever had the unfortunate experience of meeting. He has no investment in his patient's or their health and should practise his "medical degree" in a different capacity that doesn't require dealing with patients. Those that gave him a 5 star rating for his "no nonsense" approach, have obviously never been to a good doctor and have set a super low bar. I am asking for referral to new allergist.

Dr. Wong is the friendliest doctor I have ever met. Not only he was very elaborate regarding my allergies but he’s also very personable and funny! I had to wait few months for the appointment but it was worth it. I definitely recommend him!

This doctor does not deserve the title of a doctor. So unprofessional and so rude. I was referred to him by my doctor for allergy test. When he come to see me, his attitude was weird. He asked me few questions and did not listen to what I said, instead kept asking more questions before I finished my answers. Then he asked me to roll up my sleeves for test. So I did. He circled few areas in my arm and then poked outside those circles with a sharp blade. And then he poured some kind of medicine on my skin but not on the poked skin areas. How can you get result if you circle one area, poke outside the circle and then put the medicine somewhere else? When I was done, the front desk wanted to schedule a follow up appointment, I said hell no. I will never come back. Interestingly, this doctor's business card contains sooooo many medical titles and I thinking how can this person get so many degrees. He was also a professor in one of the universities. This is what I experienced with this doctor. And you know what? I waited a long time until I was able to see this SPECIALIST!!!!

So far so good. I am not sure what some reviewers here are looking for. I am looking for someone who is to the point and will get me back to work fast, not someone who I can become friends with. I have seen him twice and both times were smooth with no issues. My GP and Dr Wongs opinions on my progress and allergy shots are identical, so it is good to know there are no differing opinions on my progress. Parking can be a bit of a gong show, but has not been a major issue for me.

It was not a good experience. I went to him because I suffer with hives almost everyday . He didn't listen to my questions and interrupted me in a rude way. I could barely understand his English and he was annoyed when I asked him to repeat. He did some basic tests that didn't show anything and sent me away saying I had a mild allergy to dust (don't we all?) so to keep my house clean and wear loose clothing. Seriously?? What kind of medical advice is that? When I ask for alternative treatments so I don't have to take anti allergy medicine all the time he said "I cannot give you any recommendations". I agree with some people here that he must be doing this for so long he just acts like a robot, writes down some things and tell you to take Allegra and go. I also agree he must have a small waiting list, obviously because he is so bad. If you need a serious diagnosis, do not go to him.

If you get recommended to this practice...go somewhere else! Such a waste of time. He's a nice guy, pleasant enough but I feel like he's been doing this same thing for so many years that he is in autopilot mode. To check my glands he quickly prodded my neck and when he asked me to say "ah" he has already moved onto looking in my ears before a single sound came out my mouth. Just ticking the boxes. I tried to explain all my problems but he kind of just kept saying "yes" like he wasn't really listening and kind of cut me off. He somehow managed to come to the conclusion I was allergic to dust and dust mites. I had the 6 little tests...all came back clear but he was still certain I was allergic to dust and gave me another prescription for steroid spray. He told me to come back to have more tests done and talk about the allergy injections. I went back a couple of weeks later and he just speedily went through the injection procedure. I asked if he was going to do more tests but he told me to book another appointment. What a waste of time, why didn't he just talk to me about the injections last time? I went to Seymour Health Clinic instead and what a different experience. The doctor listened to everything I had to say and I had an extensive allergy test with around 16 tests.....ALL CAME BACK CLEAR! The doctor here gave me a much better explanation for my symptoms. I'm glad I went for a second opinion rather than wasting my time on injections I didn't actually need.

If you have chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU), I probably wouldn't recommend this doctor. His ideology seems to be based on allergy-based conditions alone. I would have appreciated the recommendation for further testing (e.g. potential auto-immune-based conditions). He recommended that I continue taking the medication (highest doses of antihistamines) and avoid all potential triggers if possible. I had to request further testing, which unfortunately didn't make me feel confident in his abilities to help me through my journey of discovering what's causing my condition. On a final note, he was pretty rash over the phone, but he seemed friendly, polite, and willing to listen in person.
