Doctor was very nice. She explained everything clearly. Staff were also nice. Small waiting room and crowded with patients. That would be the only con.
Dr. Lee was so nice.and professional to answer all my questions. She was very gentle to remove stones from my eyes. My eyes don't feel irritated anymore. She is a great doctor that I can trust.

Pretty good visit and helped me solve my concerns and provided services that made everything a lot more convenient for me.
Ted Du is a nice and good doctor, but his coworker aren't as nice as him, especially the nurses. They have bad attitude.
He was very attentive and had experience with elderly patients, which was important since my Mother is in her 80s.

Not all hours are posted on ZocDoc; call to see if they have fit you in. Very pleasant, quick, and professional. Reception was okay. Dr. Du was great and knowledgable. Office was spacious and clean with up-to-date equipment. Definitely recommend!

Dr. Lee was so nice.and professional to answer all my questions. She was very gentle to remove stones from my eyes. My eyes don't feel irritated anymore. She is a great doctor that I can trust.
Dr Du was able to fit us in on Friday afternoon for an emergency visit, when every other clinic we called was closed or not accepting last minute appointments. What's more, he referred us to surgeon and personally followed up on Monday with both us and the surgeon to make sure that we were able to get a Monday appointment.
I arrived at 1pm and it took awhile for paperwork and confirming my health plan. I saw people (3) that came behind me were already gone in and done before it was my turn. The last one before me took awhile and finally around 2:15pm it was my turn! Good thing it wasnt so crowded and lots of chairs in the waiting room. Meeting with doctor was awesome, he was funny and does answer all your questions. Will return!
Accommodating, professionals & friendly staffs.

I had an excellent experience with visit with Dr. Ted Du. There was virtually no wait time, I had to fill out some paperwork as it was my first time there. Dr. Du definitely seems like he knew what he was doing and was very responsive to my questions. I would recommend Dr. Du to anyone.

Dr. Du was friendly and attentive. He answered all of my questions and addressed all of my concerns. I would highly recommend him.
very knowledgable; very caring and thorough
I got a little bit anxious when i walked into the office and i saw a lot of people waiting in line. But honestly i waited for less than 30 min. The staff is very polite, and even though the community is mostly asian, everybody speaks english. Dr. Tedd is very professional, attentive and encouraging. I live in Queens but i have never been to Flushing. It wasnt a problem to get there, actually it was pretty fast if you drive.. i would totaaly recommend the doctor. Good luck!!!
Verified patient
was patience and answered all my questions.
The front desk staff was very nice and assisted me in dealing with my insurance issues. Dr Du seemed knowledgeable and, once he examined my eyes and found them healthy, did not pressure me into buying any other products/services. Overall, a good experience, well worth the one- hour train ride to Flushing.
