The front desk are the rudest people in the world. They give you such a hard time for no reason. Never go here.

This doctor is the rudest and most degrading unprofessional doctor you can ever find and therefore deserves no star. I'm suprised he is still practicing after 31 years.

Dr. Chan takes so much care to explain anything I don't understand and answers any questions I had. I have been seeing him for the past 15 years and have not had a better doctor.

Office staff and doctor are very rude. They don't care about patients other than to make money from insurance by ordering excessive tests that are not needed. Don't know where the doctor and staff get their education but they need to get some lessons about bedside manner and humanity. My father who is set in his ways continues to go to him even thought he knows the doctor is terrible. Also the office staff will not let you leave without making another appt in 3 months or less even though there is nothing wrong with my father. I would give them "no star" if I can.

My wait for Dr. Thomas Chan was 6 hours long, even though I was sent to an outside facility for an xray and that took about 1 hour. The office staff are rude, but the doctor is worse. He has no patience for you, doesn't answer your questions, mumbles to himself, and walks out without finishing what he's saying. One of the worse doctors I have ever encountered in my life. Avoid him at all costs.

I had a question regarding the side effects of her medication. He replied it shouldn't affect someone like that and he literally walked out without finishing his answer.

Staff is rude over the phone and in person. This doctor and his staff lack professionalism and courtesy. Doctor takes on so many patients that they are unable to give quality care to individual clients. Doctor does not lack ability but does lack any sign of interest in the well being of the patients that see him. Office staff has literally replied to a medication correspondence request by saying the doctor does not care.
