Dr Linda Khong is an expertise on this condition called Lymphoedema, of which I knew nothing! Therefore her care and thorough consultation has given me relief from pain and the ongoing treatment of swim and gym will help me manage my lymphoedema.

Both Linda along with the help of Isabel the receptionist are both fantastic. Isabel helped me secure an appointment quickly which I was very grateful for, & Linda herself is excellent - very thorough & knows what she’s talking about. She explained a lot to me & helped guide me moving forwards also, all with kindness, knowledge & upmost professionalism. Highly recommend!
Thanks very much guys :)

It is a little while since I have seen Linda. And I went and saw her because I have had a massive flare up. Without judgement she helped me today, and we have organised a plan to manage this acute stage, and then the chronic issues that I will have. Thank you Linda.

I attended Linda's clinic, which is a private clinic and she is amazing. She identified my lymphoedema and demonstrated a pump on my legs, which reduced the swelling! She then worked a long term plan and follow up appointments. She is the guru of lymphoedema and has access to products not locally available. Totally recommend this service.

I am so happy my GP has referred me to Linda. She took such a genuine care of my problem. She explained to me the reason for my state and educated on how we can resolve the issue. During my first consultation we discussed in details possible solutions and I had my first treatment with the pressure sleeve. I felt very good after the treatment. I had this problem for about 10 years already, and only now in LK Lymfoedema, I felt that somebody truly cared about helping me.
Linda also created and gave me a 5-Step plan for my further treatment for me to be aware of my next steps and to focus on my healing. She has a deep and thorough approach in examining each case and finding the best treatment that suits every person in particular. Thank you so much, Linda, and see you during my next appointment.

Linda is extremely knowledgeable with a friendly approach for solutions that GP's say can't be treated. Our first appointment was extremely positive so happily recommend LK Lymphoedema Centre, specifically Linda.

My GP referred me to Dr Linda Kong’s Lymphoedema Centre. As a male patient experiencing very uncommon, uncomfortable, and painful symptoms, I wasn’t sure what to expect. From the very first appointment, Linda came across as deeply caring and highly knowledgeable, with a clear determination to help me understand and manage my condition. She even called me outside of normal hours to offer advice and reassurance. I’m only up to my third visit, but I already have complete confidence in her ability to help me.

Linda is so professional and kind. She explained the issues and process and then showed me and my partner how to put everything into practice. She is amazing! She is the first person who really helped me with my breast lymphoedema.

Dita Page

Dr Linda is fantastic! Whenever I visit the centre I feel welcomed and supported! Your knowledge and recommendations have helped me make positive choices to manage this condition.

Sharon Treasure

I wasn’t sure whether I had lymphadema or fluid retention but I knew I had to find out quickly as I was scheduled for surgery only a week away. Dr Linda was every thing I hoped she would be and actually more so.
I felt I was in the right place.
I was positioned into a pressure suit and after sometime it was removed. I discovered that the fluid shifted but rebounded back. This I was told by Linda indicated I didn’t have Lymphadema. I felt instant relief but my mind was flooded with “what and why”.

Jan Farthing

Linda is so amazing with her knowledge and skill. My issue has improved markedly since seeking Linda’s help. Would highly recommend her services. You won’t meet a more caring specialist.

Row D

Linda new exactly what was wrong with my arm that had had lymph nodes removed due to breast cancer as soon as she saw me on my first appointment. Linda even rang my doctor to get me in immediately. I didn't realise the pain and swelling was caused by an infection. That is now all clear. Now with Linda's treatments and her now having me wearing the Correct sleeves, my am is smaller than ever. Thank you so much. I am forever grateful

Jennifer Williams

Linda is amazing, she has taken me on a journey of self care for my Lymohoedema. I am soo happy with her successful treatments these past 6yrs.

Sue Martins

Linda is excellent. I have seen so much improvement in my mobility since going for lymphodema therapy. I highly recommend Linda whose expertise and experience in this field is what makes her unique.

michael west

Linda was very professional. She gave me confidence as it was obvious that she really knows her stuff. Very patient, caring and not at all pushy. She gave me good advice on how to relieve my symptoms. I thoroughly recommend Linda
