Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Kong and her nurse were extremely knowledgeable and experienced in treating and caring for someone with my diagnosis. They were kind and compassionate and took time to listen to my concerns and answered my questions. They also included my husband in the discussion appropriately. This is so important as he will be doing through this with me. Our visit put my mind at ease and gave me confidence I would be getting the best of care.

Dr. Kong and her staff are top notch. I feel like I am in very good hands. Froedert was definitely the best choice for me.

This was an appointment for a second opinion and I am so thankful that I selected Dr. Kong. She was informative, caring and demonstrated an authentic concern for me as both a patient and a person. She was very thorough in her explanation of the cancer and treatment plan, as well as addressing any questions that I had. It was such a contrast from my meeting with the first surgeon that is not part of the Froedert system.

Dr Kong was everything I could hope for in a doctor- professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and caring. She took time to connect with me, share treatment options and made me feel I was important to her. The team reflected this type of leadership. Outstanding!!!

I adore and respect Dr. Kong and am grateful for the treatment I received from her (lumpectomy). She is amazingly sharp and honest, while also sympathetic and kind. She came highly recommended and as soon as I met with her (my second opinion) she quickly and accurately diagnosed me, explained the diagnosis and her treatment plan, reason for the specific plan, and carried it out like a true professional. I had the most wonderful experience with Dr. Kong and the entire team at Froedtert Hospital.

I absolutely love Dr Kong. I was able to get in with her within a week of my diagnosis. She already had a clear plan in mind before she even met me. She made me feel very comfortable and at ease. She explained my diagnosis and plan in great detail. She used pictures and simple terms for my husband and I to understand. She was very patient and understanding through the whole process. My surgeries all went very well. I couldn't have asked for a better team of doctors. Answered all questions we had

Dr. Amanda Kong is professional, while giving personal attention to your specific case. She applies her expertise in clinic appointments, and is an excellent surgeon. I'm grateful for her care, and look forward to my future appointments with her. I appreciate our relationship. Most of all, I'm grateful for her skilled hands in my mastectomy. Amazing!!!
