“The office is efficiently run and I was seen on time. Vrays were taken right away. Dr. Tan is very kind and patiently answered all of my questions. He thoughtfully explained what he saw on the x-rays and treatment options. I appreciated the time he took and I still made it out to arrive in the office before 9 am!”

Dr Tan. The only minor complaint was having to see a nurse and a less senior doctor first, before finally getting to Dr Tan

Awesome doctor
February 19, 2020Andrew C.Verified patient
What I Liked most was that all the members oi his staff listened to what I had to say and my choices and how I felt on radiation and other medications. It was not "Doctors Orders" But "Doctors Suggestions" to his decisions on how to treat the challenges that I am having.
He was very knowledgeable and took the time to explain the procedures and gave me the choice on how I wanted to proceed.
Should all Doctors be like him.
