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.

My dad was her patient for a long time. It is very hard to schedule appointment with her so my dad ended up scheduling appointment with another person in this clinic who was so bad treating my dad. My dad's liver was bad for more than 10 years but Dr. Tay never advised him to stop having alcohol and to have regular liver test. By the time my dad got diagnosed liver cancer, it was already too late for him to get treatment.

Way too slow service. Waited about two hours to be called after signing my name. I was there as scheduled but they let late comers (Chinese speaking patients) see their practitioner earlier than me. Soooo much displeased and disappionted at their poor care over all.
