Dr. Wei is a caring person and fully understands my concerns. He answered all my questions without omissions. After our December consultation, he took action to address my concern in nausea and vomiting suffered in my previous procedures and I appreciate that very much. I didn’t suffer nausea and vomiting after procedure on 3/15/24. I shared my experience with my siblings who also suffered the same bad effects of sedation or anesthesia.
