As this website moves forward and matures I will be adding new sections and new tools. Before that happens however I felt it necessary to put together a page dedicated to my doctor, Dr. Jerry Wong. Dr. Wong deserves all the credit in the world for turning my life around. Without him, I would not be here. I would not be in Canada and I wouldn't even be married to the woman I'm married to. It all started with him so I wanted to make sure the received the recognition he deserves for helping me put together the life I have.
One of the things I keep hearing from patients from all over the world that have visited or had surgery with Dr. Wong have told me the same thing, over and over again. Dr. Wong is a quiet and humble man. This is very true. What many may not realize about Dr. Wong is that he is a man that likes to tinker and use his hands to make the tools he needs to do his job. He is the man that invented the lateral slit technique which is in use by many of the top clinics in the world today. I think this fact is far too often overlooked and he doesn't get the credit he deserves for this achievement. I remember other things he's built with his own two hands such as finger mounted graft holders that allow for reduced graft desiccation and more efficient graft placement. He made a ring that goes on the finger and it has a small reservoir that holds just enough storage solution for about twenty follicular units. It was designed to reduce the amount of movement the technicians go through to place grafts before they have to turn around to grab more grafts to continue placing into the scalp. Once he perfected the design he made a dozen or so in various colors for his technicians. I don't think you see many doctors doing things like this.
Aside from his time in surgery he has a rich hobby life that I think should be mentioned. He's a licensed aircraft pilot and in the summer months he likes to ride his road bike bicycle to work. He enjoys motorcycles, boats, fishing, taking his entire staff out to dinner just for the heck of it and occasionally he'll spring for a short weekend cruise if he thinks the staff will have a good time. When people mention that Dr. Wong is a quiet humble man, they usually don't realize that behind this humility is a man that has a rich love of life and all it has to offer. It is one of the things that I think makes Dr. Wong stand out and contributes to his very pleasant and happy demeanor. If you ever get the opportunity to meet the man you'll easily see how he lights up if you mention one of these hobbies he loves.
