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.

On 8/29/23, I had carpal tunnel release surgery by Dr An. After many years of severe pain and discomfort, on this date it was all gone. Thanks so much to Dr. An and his stuff for the care that was given to me. Ok hey we’re all very caring and very professional. Dr. An get a 100% from me.

When I broke my wrist a few years ago, Dr. An repaired the wrist with plates and screws. He did an amazing job on my wrist and is a wonderful caring doctor.

I made an appointment specifically to see Dr An because of the good reviews. When I went to my appointment, I had to wait over an hour to learn that Dr An is not available because he is in surgery all day. I was really annoyed that no one called to inform me that I would be seeing another doctor. Another patient was annoyed too and stated that this was the 3rd time that she scheduled an appointment with Dr An and always had to see the other doctor in the office. Since I was there already, I decided to see this other doctor. She reviewed someone’s else MRI which was download to my records. I informed her that my problem is my trigger finger. She finally found my MRI. She didn’t even review my file nor looked at my hand and said that I needed surgery. I find her not reliable at all and I would not waste my time with her. I left after 5 mins. I do not appreciate this switch and bait tactics.

My husband, Melv was went to Dr. An recently for a dislocated finger, Dr. An took xrays and set the dislocated finger then he put a brace on it. He has had no problem and it healed completely after Dr. An set it back in place. On another vist he treated his knee, and recommend physical therapy first before going to surgery, after 8 weeks the knee went back to normal. He is a very good doctor who really knows what he is doing, if anything goes wrong agin with my husbands bones we would definitely go back to Dr. An.

Dr. An is the absolute best! My dad suffered a terrible fall, shattering his patella. We were blessed to have Dr. An as his surgeon. He has a calming and caring demeanor, and a confidence that puts you at ease. My dad was well prepared for the long road to recovery, and happily put in the hard work, because he trusted Dr. An's determination to get him walking again. Five months, and much rehab, later, dad is doing great. He walks comfortably with a walker outside, and doesn't need any support indoors. By the way, dad is 88 years old! We cannot thank you and your wonderful staff enough!

I have been a patient of Dr. An’d for the past five years at Southside Hospital in Bay Shore. When he moved to Flushing I gladly followed him because I have always been greatly impressed with his caring attitude and the professional treatment I have always received from him. I will continue to go to his office in Flushing for whatever treatment I need for my hand and wrist problems.

I would highly recommend Dr An , from the moment i came to his care with a ruptured bicep tendon I knew this was the right doctor. His professional manner and the way he broke down my injury my surgery and my aftercare made me feel at ease . my surgery was perfect his follow-up care and my physical therapy left me no doubt that I would be fully functional again when it comes to an orthopedic doctor I would highly recommend him

I went to Dr. An in 2012 for numbness in my left pinky and ring finger, Turns out I had Ulnar nerve compression. Dr. An took excellent care of me, explained the procedure, showed me pictures after the surgery, he has excellent bedside manner and is truly caring. I need to see him again for my carpal tunnel (he doesnt know it yet) Also, I just gave out his number to a co-worker for her knee pain. Yes, I would and do recommend Dr An.

Dr. An Performed surgery on my husbands hand...he has dupuytren contracture in both hands. Dr. An thoroughly explained the surgery he was going to perform....answered all the questions we had for him. His mannerisms are very gentle and kind...so soft spoken. Surgery went well...exactly how Dr. An said it would. Dr. An is genuinely concerned for his patients...telling us to call immediately if we had any questions or concerns. Very professional. Great doctor! I definitely recommend Dr. An.

I have been seeing Dr. An for almost one year, for treatment of bi-lateral CTS and CMC joint arthritis. Very patient taking time to explain diagnosis and treatment recommendations. Takes time to answer questions. He eventually performed surgery which went very well, relieving the severe pain that I was experiencing day-to-day. Thank you Dr An! I am very satisfied and have recommended Dr An to family and friends.

I saw Dr An as a second opinion, the diagnosis was the same. ( full tear in rotator cuff with tendinosis in right arm) His treatment plan was however different. he suggested a steroid shot and PT. I felt relief in my shoulder as he took the needle out, PT for the right arm, although he and I knew this wasn't the cure it might be good enough to avoid surgery and a painful recoop. I am glad to say that my shoulder still fells awesome and pt has worked for my arm. Thank you
