Exelent doctor
Dr Van Eck took her time and paid attention to what I said and why I pointed to where my pain was and today is the first day I'm at work without any pain in my leg after 2 years I'm glad I was referred to her.
Doctor Van Eck wasabi very informative and took the time to show me how to do the exercises, when I Asked a question She answered it too where I understood it
Excellent
Is my first time and was a good service
Love the staff and Dr.Tan . They have been very attentive to all my questions .
The doctor was knowledgeable and explained my options in great detail. She checked for understanding and she even drew me a picture of my knee to understand what she planned to do during surgery. The staff was helpful and let me know that there would be a long wait. During my wait they checked in on me and let me know they had not forgotten about me.
My first visit was explained to me thoroughly the pain I was suffering. I was given an injection. My second visit was brief and nothing was done except to follow up if I have the same pain. Only the waiting time that I have concerns.
Fast friendly service
It’s always a short wait, and everyone is nice and friendly. And, I always feel like I have a say in any decisions.
Very good
Dr Tan took the time to listen to what I had to say. He then clearly explained what I needed to accomplish before he was ready to perform surgery. The follow-up appointment - to ascertain my progress - was set immediately. It was a great combination of respect for patient, efficiency and competence. Would totally recommend.
Dr Tan is very knowledgeable and polite and answers your questions. I highly recommend him for anyone experiencing hip and knee problems.
He is very personal and caring.
Short wait and pleasant talk with Dr. Tan
Very well pleased! His expertise is very helpful and he takes time to answer questions and give advice.
I’m really happy with all the treatment I ve beings Erving from Doctors Timothy , I want to say thank you to him, the only issue I had was on Visalia office that I rescheduled an appointment tha one I had 10/6/22 to 10/9/22 and I recibe the confirmation and the 9th the receptionist didn’t let me see the doctor she rescheduled again over a month later so I’ve on pain for more than a month, I made a coment to Timothy and he couldn’t understood, why, that’s the only complaint I have.
Great
Very caring an professional
The office staff as well as the medical assistants treat me great they are very helpful and efficient as well as efficient. I have been treated by Dr. Livermore as well as Dr. Tan. They both listen as well as explain. My medical treatment that I have received have been excellent. I do recommend this group to my friends and family.
Dr was caring and an excellent dr.
I made an appointment 3 months ago in Visalia. Arrived at 0745. Front desk said I didn't have an appointment there that it had been moved to Porterville. I was never advised of that change. Front desk said it wasn't her fault but mine. Said she would call and advise Pville that I would be in there later that day. She didn't make the call. Very rude. The Pville staff and Dr Tan are a great and I recommend the to anyone.
