I came to Shanghai Ninth Hospital because of severe pain and inflammation caused by an impacted lower wisdom tooth. The doctor’s extraction technique was excellent, and the entire procedure was completed smoothly in just over ten minutes. During treatment, the doctor was very patient and carefully reassured my anxiety, which made me feel at ease. My recovery after the procedure was quick, and my face did not swell much. I am now completely free of pain, all indicators are normal, and I have also returned to eating normally. Many thanks!

Our child has a cleft lip and palate, and we were very anxious. We came to Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital in August this year. The doctor was not only highly skilled, but also developed a detailed surgical repair plan. The staff were extremely gentle and patient, which helped ease our anxiety. It has now been two weeks since the surgery, and the wound has healed very well. The scar is barely visible, and eating has returned to normal. We are grateful to the medical team at Ninth People's Hospital for their skilled care and for giving our child a complete smile. We sincerely recommend it to other patients who may need this care!

I came to Shanghai Ninth People’s Hospital because of inflammation caused by an impacted wisdom tooth in the lower right jaw. The doctor’s tooth extraction technique was truly excellent, and the entire procedure went very smoothly. It was completed in just a few minutes, without the pain I had imagined. The doctor was also very kind and patient, carefully explaining the postoperative precautions. The treatment outcome has been very good so far, with no obvious swelling after surgery, and I was able to eat normally the next day. All indicators have returned to normal. Many thanks!

The ptosis that had troubled me for years was finally resolved at Ninth People's Hospital. During the consultation, the doctor was very professional, made an accurate diagnosis, and developed a detailed surgical plan for me. The surgeon's technique was excellent, and the suturing was very precise. During my hospital stay, the medical staff were also extremely patient and attentive, answering all my questions. It has now been three months since the surgery. My eyes open much more fully, the double-eyelid crease looks natural, the symptom of visual obstruction has been completely relieved, and I feel much more confident now!
