I WAS IN SCHOOL FOR SURGICAL TECH AND DR NG WAS MY FAVORITE SURGEON TO WORK WITH. HE WAS SO PATIENT WITH ME AND WAS CONSTANTLY TEACHING ME .LATER I HAD MARRIED AND HAD AN EMERGENCY SITUATION THAT REQUIRED SURGERY. I REQUESTED DR NG AND HE WAS THERE!! TOLD ME LATER THAT I COULD HAVE DIED BUT I GOT THERE IN TIME, THEN WHEN MY FIRST BABY WAS BORN, AT 2 MONTHS HE HAD TO HAVE SURGERY ON HIS CRANIUM I WAS STANDING BY HIS LITTLE BED, SCARED, TIRED AND IN WALKED DR NG WITH HIS NURSE. HE ASKED WHY I WAS THERE. I SHOWED HIM MY BABY, DR NG LOOKED AT HIS CHART, EXAMINED MY SON THEN PICKED HIM UP HELD HIM AND THEN HANDED HIM TO ME, SMILING AND SAYING HE WILL BE OK.
