My experience with Dr. Tan was okay overall. This was my first visit with her. She was friendly, I felt comfortable, and she was thorough during my skin cancer screening, which I appreciated. I booked primarily for rosacea and added an annual skin screening ahead of time. While this was noted at check-in, Dr. Tan did not seem aware that rosacea was my main concern.
The screening went well, but I was frustrated with the rosacea portion. I felt I had to repeatedly prompt for a closer look and more discussion. When talking treatments- laser therapy was presented as the only option. It wasn’t until I pushed her to closely examine my chin—where visible blood vessels were present—that the conversation shifted and she specifically recommended IPL.
One highlight I appreciated was her advice against Botox above my eye, explaining it could negatively affect my goals. Overall, Dr. Tan is kind & knowledgeable, but the rosacea aspect felt less thorough and less prioritized than I had expected.
