From the moment we walked into the Randwick clinic, Dr Koh and the team made a tough time so much more manageable. His clear explanations about pain management and symptom control helped my dad relax for the first time in weeks. We felt supported every step of the way here in NSW. Highly recommended.
I can't thank Dr Koh enough for the emotional support she provided during mum's final months. It was a weight off our shoulders to have someone who truly listened and offered practical quality-of-life advice. The Randwick location was easy to get to and very patient-focused.
Fantastic palliative care experience. Dr Koh helped us navigate difficult symptoms and kept our family informed without feeling overwhelmed. We felt seen, heard and cared for in Randwick.
Relief is the word that comes to mind. Dr Koh tailored a pain management plan that actually worked, and the nursing staff were wonderfully reassuring. We’re grateful for the compassionate care in the Bright Alliance Building.
The team’s approach to quality of life was outstanding. Dr Koh checked in regularly, adjusted medications as needed, and explained every option in plain terms. It made a big difference for dad, living in Randwick and beyond.
What stood out was the combination of practical help and genuine kindness. Dr Koh listened to our concerns about side effects and shifted treatment to keep my nana comfortable. I’d recommend this service to anyone in the Randwick area.
Relieved to find a clinician who prioritised both symptoms and emotional well-being. The care plan was clear, and the staff were patient and respectful. We felt supported through a tough period in Sydney’s eastern suburbs.
