" and "As the associate medical director at Delta West Clinic, I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Tom during her tenure as the Chest Pain Center director. Dr. Tom leveraged her confident leadership and creative problem solving skills to successfully design and open the Chest Pain Center within the startup environment of our clinic. This was no small feat considering she implemented a cutting edge, evidence-based clinical concept that was heretofore unheard of in the Chinese medical community. Bringing this revolutionary clinical modality to the private international health care community required Dr. Tom to establish new practice standards and train her staff. Her methodical strategic planning, Mandarin Chinese fluency, keen understanding of Chinese culture, as well as unique people skills were all important in accomplishing the establishment of an innovative Chest Pain Center. As a colleague, Dr. Tom was a voice for clinical excellence, always willing to serve as a collegial source of prudent, sagacious insight. She is a patient, compassionate human being, and above all, a professional of the utmost character, capable of demonstrating honorable, forthright leadership in challenging situations. It is without hesitation that I recommend Dr. Tom in any future professional role."
