She is Board certified by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and a fully licensed physician and surgeon by the State of Illinois (license no.: 036.093565).
Dr. Tam has been in private practice since 1998. She was the Associate Director of their Obstetrics & Gynecology residency program for 10 years. She is currently Director of Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery at Ascension Saint Francis Hospital in Evanston, Illinois; Assistant Professor of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago; Residency Instructor and attending physician/surgeon at Ascension St Joseph Hospital in Chicago, Illinois; and attending physician/surgeon at Advodate Illinois Masonic Medical Center.

She is a noted presenter at national and international medical conferences having presented over two dozen oral presentations, abstracts, video, and poster presentations combined. To date, she has written over 13 published research papers and produced a series of medical education videos. She was awarded “Attending of the Year“ and received the “National Faculty Award“, an unprecedented seven times as an attending physician and Associate Director of the Ob/Gyne residency program at Ascension Saint Joseph Hospital in Chicago, and as an attending physician and mentor at Ascension Saint Francis Hospital in Evanston.
In 2012, Dr. Tam took a sabbatical from her private practice to undertake a fellowship program in Minimally Invasive Gynecological Surgery (MIGS) at Penn State Hershey Medical Center in Hershey, Pennsylvania. She left Chicago and moved to Hershey, PA for one year. There, she received advanced training in laparoscopic surgery and robotically-assisted surgery using the da Vinci® Robotic Surgical System. During her fellowship, she performed hundreds of MIGS surgeries under the guidance of some of the top MIGS surgeons in the country. She completed her fellowship in June 2013 and returned to Chicago to start her new solo practice, “All for Women Healthcare, SC“, which, as that time, was located in the Stone Building, in Chicago.
In February 2017, thanks to a growing demand for her medical expertise, Dr. Tam moved to a larger, completely new office in the Presence Center for Advanced Care (PCAC) building located at 2845 N. Sheridan Road, Suite 902, in Chicago, down the street from her old office in the Stone Building. The PCAC is a truly modern, state-of-the-art medical building completed in 2015. Dr. Tam’s new office offers patients a beautiful waiting area, a procedure room, and three exam rooms. The PCAC also offers visitors and patients the convenience of valet or indoor self-parking, and even a pharmacy in the lobby.
In 2013, Dr. Tam and All for Women Healthcare received accreditation as a Center of Excellence in Minimally Invasive Gynecology (COEMIG), from the nationally recognized, Surgical Review Corporation (SRC), a nonprofit, patient safety organization. SRC accredits the top facilities, surgeons and medical professionals worldwide that meet our proven standards.An SRC accreditation helps patients identify providers that have met rigorous standards for delivering high-quality perioperative and long-term, follow-up care and distinguish them from those who have not. Insurance companies also use accreditation to identify those surgeons and facilities committed to excellence. Earning SRC’s COEMIG accreditation signifies an ability to consistently deliver the safest, highest-quality care to all patients. This COEMIG designation requires a rigorous screening process and has been successfully renewed for Dr Tam and her practice from 2013 to today.
In 2022, Dr Tam was also accredited with the "Master Surgeon of Excellence In Minimally Invasive Gynecology" from SRC.
The Master Surgeon of Excellence In Minimally Invasive Gynecology is a prestigious accreditation awarded to the top surgeons, physicians and medical professionals who are committed to establishing and maintaining a culture of excellence.

SRC’s gynecology accreditation program recognizes surgeons who demonstrate an unparalleled commitment and ability to consistently deliver safe, effective, evidence-based care. The program is structured to help providers continuously improve care quality and patient safety.
Besides medicine, Dr. Tam’s other passion is running… a lot of running! Over the past 20+ years, she has run over 34 marathons (at 26.2 miles each!). She has completed full marathons all over the U.S. and the world including the Chicago Marathon (5 times), Las Vegas, Disney World, New York, Washington, DC, Rome, and Paris, just to name a few.

She speaks to me almost as a friend would. She guided me through my pregnancy with my first child, all the way to her gentle explanation of why a c-section would be the safest thing for us when his delivery was not progressing. My c-section recovery was a breeze thanks to her surgical skills, and I have healed with barely any scarring. She has also walked me through the loss of my second pregnancy with care, understanding, and compassion. I have felt so taken care of through this tragic process, and I am so thankful to have her as my doctor.”
