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.

Recently, Dr Tan treated my husband got four days in Queens West. She did an excellent job in getting his sodium back to where it should be. She has a very good bedside manner and explains things well

Worse Doctor I’ve ever meet in my life! She is horrible and needs to take a class on being a human! Do not put you life in hands of this doctor. Warning! Tread carefully with a doctor who doesn’t care about her patients well being!
