Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

We had an appointment at 3:34 and at 4:29 was still sitting in the waiting room, waiting to be called back in a room. Once in a room, we had to wait another 25 minutes before seeing a Dr.

I really appreciate the time he spent with me and asking pertinent questions and yet being personable to me as a patient. The only complaint I have is that the receptionist need to be more pleasant and personable to the patients. It seemed like I was just a number.

I was treated by this Dr in January 2016 at Trios Medical center. I was advised by nursing staff and resident doctors that I may want to consider requesting a different pulminary specialist after Dr. Tan performed a "lung wash" in the course of my treatment for pnuemonia. He succeeded in making me worse. Not at any point while under his care did I begine to get better,spent 5 nights in ICU because of this jackwagon. Then he tried to get me to consent to a lung biopsy.
