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.

Love her!
Dr. Tan delivered both of my children. My first delivery was very complicated and I ended up hemorrhaging really bad, she caught it right away and saved my life! Best OB you could ask for!

Dr. Tan was the only doctor that cared enough
14 years ago I went to Dr. Tan to get birth control. I had multiple miscarriages, and had been told by other doctors that there would be a sim chance I could have children. When I explained this, she asked what the diagnosis had been as to why that was the case. I shrugged and said I didn’t know.She then asked if I would want children, and I responded in the affirmative. She arranged for bloodwork, genetic testing, and for me to see a uterine specialist.It is only due to her that I have 5 beautiful children, and she has been with me every step of the way. She’s been honest, supportive, and willing to listen when I had concerns. She is a part of my family, though not related, she’s stuck with me.

Review for Dr. Teresa Tan: A Disheartening Experience My recent visit with Dr. Teresa Tan was deeply disappointing and left me feeling unheard and mistreated. As someone who suffers from severe anxiety, I made it a point to express my concerns both before and during the appointment, hoping for a bit of understanding and empathy. Unfortunately, Dr. Tan’s bedside manner was far from what I expected or needed. From the outset, Dr. Tan seemed impatient, as if my anxiety was an inconvenience rather than a legitimate concern. Her dismissive attitude made me feel uncomfortable and even more anxious, which only exacerbated my stress levels during the appointment. Instead of offering reassurance, she came across as cold and indifferent, showing little to no empathy for my situation. The most troubling part of the visit was after a particularly painful procedure. Despite informing Dr. Tan of my neurological disability and the heightened pain I was experiencing, she refused to prescribe any medication for relief. Her rationale was that she doesn’t typically do this for “typical patients,” despite my clear indication that my condition was anything but typical. This lack of consideration for my individual circumstances left me feeling neglected and in pain. I left her office in tears, overwhelmed by the entire experience. It’s disheartening that a medical professional, whom I had trusted to care for my health, could be so dismissive and unsympathetic. I would not recommend Dr. Teresa Tan to anyone, especially those who may require a more compassionate and understanding approach to their care.

Dr. Tan is knowledgeable. However, her bedside manner leaves something to be desired. She provides information much like a pharmaceutical commercial. She will clearly explain a diagnosis, but then go into all of the things that could go wrong without giving any time to process. Then she will offer a "supportive" hand on the shoulder and be on her way. Healthcare in general, but especially reproductive health. She comes off as slightly rigid. I have left her twice now feeling more conflicted about my healthcare than when I went in to the office.

I was coming in for some birth control and she was super professional yet so relaxed about the whole thing. I was feeling self conscious about my reasons for wanting birth control but she quickly told me that their was nothing selfish about it. I really loved her manners and would 100% see her again!
