    I was seen early because I arrived early, which was wonderful. The nurse who took me in was great, and the doctor was so wonderful. He spent a lot of time with me and took my questions seriously, provided me with some advice, which really helped. I appreciate him spending the time looking further into my gastrointestinal situation.

    Oh man, Dr. Tan is very amazing and I will come back over, over, over, over and again and I will send any people that I know. He's the best doctor. He takes time to listen to you. He takes time to go over information that make you understand that a way that nobody can explain and I want to thank him very, very much and I feel safe. I'm not worried at all. I am okay to okay to go to whatever the doctor is telling me to do because I feel safe and I trust him. That's the most important. I just feel safe.

    Thank you. My experience was excellent with Dr. Tan. He explained things in a way that a layperson like myself could completely understand them. He answered all my questions and then some I didn't think of that I should know. And I left that office extremely happy and pleased that my first visit with Dr. Tan was so wonderful. Thank you for having him at Mass General Hospital as part of the team who cares for us. I hope that he receives the accolades he needs because he is a wonderful doctor. Thank you.
