Dr. Chan LISTENS to you. Does not rush you. He truly wants to help you. And his training, education, background and published studies speak for themselves. He cares about you even if you are elderly or close to being elderly. He will order the tests and procedures that you need to find root cause of your problems. LOVE him!
