He can get you in for appointments very quick without much delay - but the appt itself felt rushed and too fast. It is good to come here if you need to get seen ASAP, but not for any more complex questions or procedures. The receptionist Carla is fantastic. She is exceedingly helpful and kind, definitely enhances the feel of this practice and the patient experience. read more

Do not go here the Pap smear was so rough and my concerns for the pain were completely ignored!! It was such a rush job It felt like he was scared of my coochie and I doubt he could do a proper assessment with the fast speed he did everything. I feel bad for any woman that ever slept with him... lol. But seriously if you have a history of sexual violence or are sensitive, do not come here dude. It straight up felt like abuse to my body. I've had many Pap smears at planned parenthood and appreciate their approach. He was everything opposite of what I desire in a gynecologist. I am not a review leaving type of person but I really need to just warn other women to stay away!! read more

My husband wrote this about my experience with Dr. Fan and I vouch for every detail: On Oct 14 2021, Dr. Fan abandoned my wife after taking on her emergency ovarian torsion case, which required surgery ASAP, thereby introducing an unnecessary additional several hours of languishing in extreme pain on the gurney as her ovary suffocated, which directly led to her loss of the ovary. He disappeared from the hospital on us without notice let alone explanation, leaving us without an ObGyn on site for hours thereafter. He was dressed to the hilt, not properly for clinical care in my perception, and he left to make a non-clinical, but professionally important appointment (according to another doctor). This is truly as simple and "movie bad guy" as it sounds. I'm not a psychologist, but I suppose he must at least have sociopathic tendencies, at least in certain circumstances, such as when a strong personal need conflicts with "just another patient." My wife only endured the delay of a long transfer from another hospital because Dr. Fan had personally accepted her for the purpose of treating her diagnosed ovarian torsion, which requires immediate surgery in order to attempt to save the ovary. By subsequently abandoning her, he introduced several more hours of avoidable delay -- on top of making fruitless the long ambulance transfer meant to access his care. His abandonment was morally equivalent to a serious act of violence, one that had a significant medical impact. If you're caught in the rapids of a river and I call out, "Don't worry, I'll save you 30 meters downstream -- no need to call for help from those others on the bank who can still hear you." But then I realize I have a haircut appointment, so you're on your own. Dr. Fan is a truly bad person. That is, this wasn't human error as in typical medical malpractice. It wasn't accidental - it was a cold choice he made over the course of an hour or two, during which he never approached the patient's bed and, according to him, never even looked at her records. A plan for surgery or otherwise was never discussed. I'm an extremely credible witness (former Columbia professor, etc.) and I urge you to contact me directly if you're even considering working with or being a patient of Dr. Fan. I'm easy to find (you can try LinkedIn or just google me -- my name, Eric Siegel, isn't too common and I'm the one who authored Predictive Analytics). I have a detailed write-up of the case, including documented proof of the timeline, and I would be glad to send it to you and/or discuss on a call. Here, Yelp only permits 5000 characters, so I'll fill that much with some more details. An esteemed Ob/Gyn Elected as Chair of the Quality Committee for Southern California Permanente Medical Group (15 years -- I can name him on request) confirms that Dr. Fan's abandonment was below the standard of care and that, "more than likely," the avoidable delay impacted the viability of her ovary. He said, "When I see torsion, every minute counts... The probability that the ovary could be saved dropped every hour, and he passed her on - I'm sorry but that's bad." Other doctors in the hospital who've also expressed concern and dismay over Dr. Fan's unexpected departure that day include the internist who was on the case for my wife's pain management during her (long) wait and the Ob/Gyn who eventually took over and performed the surgery. Each minute with ovarian torsion and its extreme pain is an eternity and each minute delay contributes to the risk the suffocating organ will be lost, as was the case here. read more

Incredible doctor. Funny. Kind. Has 40 years of experience. Dr. Fan is amazing! I trust him. he's seen it all.

Very professional! I am always afraid of doctor visits, and I am particularly afraid of needles, but Dr. Fan made me feel safe, and he resolved all my concerns and issues. I wish I could give him more than 5 stars! read more

He's adequate for the most basic gyno or general health exams and if you're in relatively good health. But he dismissed what turned out to be an autoimmune disorder (pain in joints that was so severe and persistent that I booked repeated appointments) as "calcification." He told me to do more daily exercises and stretching. I went to other doctors and finally got an accurate diagnosis, started the necessary medication, and eventually the pain decreased. I switched to another general practitioner. When I told him about my correct diagnosis from other doctors, he didn't acknowledge any wrongdoing or offer an apology. Before this, for a separate, more minor diagnosis that he was correct about, he said, "See, I told you I was right." He's old-fashioned, often dismissive, and can seem condescending. I wouldn't recommend him if you want to feel heard and acknowledged. read more

I was extremely nervous to go to the gynecologist after a couple of years of not going in for check ups. I needed to get an IUD removal after nearly a decade of having my IUD. The insertion was a horrible experience with a lot of pain, and I explained that I was terrified to have it removed. Dr. Yuan-Da Fan was extremely personable, and listened intently to my worries, with a lot of care and understanding. He put me at ease, and after inserting the speculum, he started to ask me questions about my life, and then in one swift movement, the IUD was out with absolutely no pain or bleeding. He said "it's out!" I started to laugh hysterically because of how painless it was. I didn't even notice it was happening because he distracted me with questions about my life. He even made a joke asking if I wanted to take it home for a souvenir! We laughed together and I was in shock by how at ease I felt after having my legs spread-- I am quite shy. My past gynecologist said that the threads were very short and that if I wanted to keep it in a couple more years, I could and it led me to believe that the removal would be a difficult process. Dr. Yuan-Da Fan's years of experience really showed and I highly recommend him to any woman who feels shy or is worried about a procedure. I will be seeing him again for my next checkup! read more

I needed an urgent ultrasound for checkup. He was quick to understand and setup for me. The whole session took less than 20 mins.

Doctor: she was nice and patient; Front Desk: they are friendly and were confirmed twice my insurance cover the women's annual wellness exam fully Billing: the person input a wrong procedure code so my insurance charges me a lot then they told me I need to ask the clinic to input the right procedure code; I've called the billing department for almost 3 weeks and left voicemails and no one has gotten back to me Contact service: she said she will email and call the billing department for two weeks and let them get back to me ASAP. But it has been almost three weeks, every time I called, she just tells me that keeps calling and she refuses to forward the email to me about the billing email I asked. Testing result service: it has been one month and I've not gotten any testing results online or by mail after I called that I need the testing result not a verbal result from them. read more

One star is way more than he deserves. I saw Dr. Fan during an ER visit. He was rough, condescending, and didn't listen to my concerns or seem interested in my medical history. When I asked for details about my diagnosis, he patted me on the shoulder and told me not to worry about it. Another provider commented that the surgical procedure he did was, "very old and a strange choice..." Perhaps tellingly, his new patient intake form packet includes an arbitration agreement. I transferred to a more trustworthy provider without further treatment. I'm absolutely devastated I got this guy in the ER, and am very concerned about the future health ramifications of the procedure he did. read more

Very old school doctor. Not up to date on modern procedures. Had a visit with pelvic pain 6 months after uterine embolization procedure. Brought my X-rays before and after, was trying to explain the type of procedure that I had (he wasn't interested nor did he know what the embolization meant). Kept saying those thing don't work and tried to schedule a surgery to slice me open and fix the problem. I refused. The problem fixed itself the next day. Get a second opinion! This doctor medical education is outdated. Technology has changed in the past 20 years! Time to retire if you can't keep up... read more

Went in twice, first time is eh okay, second time is HORRIBLE!! He is nice -- but this is only meant as he is a nice person, but not a good doctor. The exam went fairly fast, usually I would prefer that, maybe for general check ups, but I went in for OB exams, and I want to make sure everything is perfect. He did not order any test for me, did not go over what to expect during pregnancy, he basically only did a ultrasound scan. Later I called in to request a blood test because I have a cat, and the staff did not mention should I fast or not, until I asked for this information. Second time when I went in, he started his question by asking if I'm pregnant or not. I just want to laugh (sarcastically). He did not remember me at all!! I'm not sure if the staff did not create my profile, or he could care less to read my profile. Either way, it's horrible. Both time they over charge me for copay, I did not know then when I paid on spot, but later when I check my insurance account online I realized they reported a claim, meaning they got paid from the insurance company, and there's still a patient responsibility for me to pay. This is absurd and outrageous. Both time I should have only paid around $75, but they charge me $105, and when I ask for refund or billing department, which is a department that do not exist in this office, they just tell me to wait for the billing to contact me. read more

Horrible. From the old equipments in his office, to my test results. No phone call to explain what my test results meant. I have never seen anything like this. In my first appointment he didn't make time to try to understand my previous conditions. The secretaries or nurse are either not well trained or they are completely incompetent. read more

It's no lie, his office and waiting rooms definitely could use some updating, and maybe a bit of a cleaning. In fact the cleaning thing is definitely needed, as in a medical place of business, I expect a really clean and sterile environment and this didn't quite make the cut. He is nice though and gentle and though what he worked on for me, was not pleasant, I feel that he did try to make it as easy on me as possible. His staff was also super nice, and understanding. I saw him for a one time visit, when my regular OBGYN couldn't see me, and referred me to him. Not a bad option of my regular guy can't fit me in and I need to see him. read more

Went in for a normal wellness exam. This is the second time I've been to this doctor, thinking the second time would be better than my not-so-pleased visit the first time (see my tip below). Not a good clinician to go to for very through questions and answers. Dr.Yuan-da Fan and the nurse was very quick with his exam. I did not feel comfortable to ask questions. He didn't even ask me how ive been doing or if I had any other questions. Felt very unwelcomed and uninformed in general. PRO: I was able to get an appointment fairly soon compared to others. Good if you're in a time rush and need simple procedures done read more

this one star review is for that lady working at the front desk, who has a round fat face and wearing glasses. Have you learnt basic manner of how to talk with people ? When she handing me over a blood text form, there is no single word of explanation. As a patient, I want to know when and where the blood test happens. If you don't want to deal with people, just go home please. No one forces you to work at front desk which obviously you are not good at. read more

My visit with Dr. Fan was for a general check up and although it was quick and he was friendly, I probably won't be coming back Pros: quick process. In and out in less than 10 minutes. Staff was friendly. Cons: It's difficult to understand him. Although he was quick and kept reassuring me that someone my age is generally healthy, I didn't like that he didn't ask me if I had any further questions or concerns after the check up. I have a skin rash on my leg and when I asked him about it he didn't even probe me for questions. He just said ''put ice, you're fine.'' Then go top it off. I had to ask him if the check up was over and what the next steps were before he walked out the door! He mumbled to get dress and that I'll have my blood checked next. But I was left thinking ''where? Here? Should I stay in the room? '' it just was not a smooth process. Also, the office was really outdated/rusty and as a medical practice, I expect an office to feel and look clean. read more

I called in a non-emergency situation and got a next day appointment. Everyone there was very pleasant and the experience was good, minus the obnoxious woman chatting for 1/2 hour on the phone in another language in the lobby. Dr. Fan was friendly, thorough at explaining, and quick. I thought he might answer my questions after he was going to run some tests on me, but rather the woman at the front desk sent me away after calling in my prescription. Turns out the prescription didn't work, so I went back. They gave me another prescription which my insurance didn't cover. Oh well. read more

Dr. Fan was fantastic. I needed to get my IUD removed, and he was very gentle and had a great bedside manner. He asked me if I was comfortable and went out of his way to let me now that I was in total control of the appointment. Really, a great experience (from a person who has had some really unpleasant gyno experiences) read more

I ended up in the emergency room with no OBGYN in the city they the hospital assigned him to me. He is the worst doctor possible his office even though in a nice location is small and crowded. Elaborating on the worst doctor he missed a kidney infection that landed me in the ER two more times in less than two weeks with a more resistant infection. He told me I was perfectly healthy . I wish I could give him no stars.!! If you want to jeopardize your health then visit him. Worst doctor ever!!!! read more

Dr. Fan is A++. My sister lost her first baby at term. When I became pregnant (and did not want a bad outcome), I asked my UCSF physician friends who was the best OBGYN in SF. Hands down, Dr. Fan. Those in the "business" (as I am) will earnestly tell you he is truly the best in SF. He delivers 100% of his own patients, he does not pass them off last minute (or ever) to a partner. He vacations around his patient's due dates! He is an excellent, experienced technician (ask him how many babies he delivers a year), with a kind bedside manner. If you want to be chatted up, fine. If you want pretty wall paper or music in the waiting room, fine. If you want wonderful, safe, and the very best care, see Dr. Fan. Ask physicians and nurses that you know - we have the "inside" scoop. SIgned, OR RN and nurse practitioner in SF for over 20 years, and happy mom P.S. I recommended him to a friend, and he literally saved her two babies' lives during difficult deliveries. I can't rate him highly enough and still continue to see him for my annuals. read more

I am new to the area and went to Dr. Fan after I found out I was pregnant based on the reviews online. I am basing this review solely on Dr. Fan's performance as a doctor, and not on the office decor, hygiene, or his receptionists. In the last four months I have found him to be inattentive, condescending, and just plain insensitive. I am looking for another doctor to deliver my baby. Luckily, I have had zero nausea or morning sickness since the beginning of the pregnancy, which I have communicated to Dr. Fan at every visit - yet he always asks me if my nausea and morning sickness are getting better. This suggests to me that either 1) he doesn't pay attention to what I'm telling him, or 2) he does pay attention and should be taking notes, but isn't. Either way, he's not doing a very basic part of his job. Also, I knew a lot about my body at the time of conception due to months of charting my BBT and my history of extremely irregular periods, yet when I brought in my charts and presented him with the due date I had calculated he brushed me off and said that "we don't rely on charting anymore, it's too inaccurate", whereupon he insisted on basing my due date on my LMP, even though I had informed him that my cycles are highly irregular and the due date calculated from it would necessarily be inaccurate. Of course, the ultrasound he performed confirmed the date I had given him - but he still didn't change the due date. And lastly, he is sloppy and doesn't seem to notice that while he's trying to yank me off the examination table I am still pulling up my pants and adjusting my blouse - he does this every single time, even if I try to pull my arm away and finish what I'm doing before I get up. I feel like he's more concerned about getting me out of there before the next incubator comes in rather than being concerned about my personal comfort level. Seriously, I feel like I'm in an assembly line every time I go in there. read more

I cannot say enough lovely things about Dr. Fan, though he may not be for everyone. Here is what I imagine someone could grouse about: -No fancy speculum warmers, InStyle mags or other creature comforts -Not a lot of girl chat -Practices alone -Can seem a little gruff at first But here is why I love him: -Great doctor, who took wonderful care of me through various medical issues, birth and pregnancies -Compassionate, genuine, and warm -Skilled and well-connected- knows all the best specialists, pediatricians, etc. -Lovely office staff in Angela and Veronica -Supportive of natural childbirth and other patient preferences -Gets rave reviews from all his other patients I know, including my orthopedist, my dermatologist, a nurse friend, and two women I know who switched to his practice after being attended by him during a delivery I think he is the only Bay Area doctor who will let a woman carrying breech try to deliver naturally, but am not sure if there are others. That's Dr. Fan- old school but amazing. read more

I've been going to Dr. Fan for a couple of years and he's been nothing but great. Not sure what the deal is with the negative posts but I have found his office to be professional, attentive, very smooth and efficient. Perhaps I need to get pregnant or something to get crappy patient care from him??? read more

I have been with Dr Fan's practice for almost four years and through pregnancy and childbirth. Although not the chattiest, Dr Fan is attentive, thorough, and reliable - he hardly ever takes vacations because there are too many babies to deliver! He patiently guided me through a 2-hour natural delivery while many others would probably have opted for invasive procedures after an hour (as some of my nurse friends tell me). I feel very lucky to have found this doctor. read more

I agree with the previous posting. My mom went to him after the guy that delivered me retired. He is great and you don't even think about the fact that he is a man. The whole process is smoth and easy and fast. He is just a great doctor and I will probably continue going to him once I begin having children (if he is still around that is) read more

Yep, I also love Dr. Fan. He was my gynocologist for years -- when I got pregnant I thought of switching to another doctor. Maybe I'd want a female doctor for childbirth, I thought. I am SOOO glad I didn't! I ended up with a really difficult pregnancy and was in the hospital for 6 weeks and on bedrest for about fifteen. Dr. Fan was in the hospital almost every day -- he loves delivering babies and he was always delivering them for other doctors' patients. He drove back from Marin at 1 in the morning to deliver my son, which I had to do without an epidural. He is so gentle and understanding. read more

Dr. Fan was the on call doc at CPMC when I delivered, and although I had been there for over 20 hours and gone through two other doctors shifts, I couldn't be happier that Dr. Fan was the one to deliver my son. It turned out to be a very difficult deliver at the end, because the baby was facing up, and I was beginning to give up on pushing. Dr. Fan came in and had him delivered within 4 minutes: no fuss, all business, which is exactly what I needed at the time. Although I did not go to him throughout my pregnancy, I was extremely impressed with him in the 20 minutes he spent with me at the most crucial moments of my pregnancy and delivery. read more

My husband and I really love Dr. Fan. We initially went to One Medical for our first son. We had a great experience there the first time round but the second pregnancy they completely misdiagnosed us and told us that we were 6-7 weeks pregnant and were going to have a miscarriage. They referred us to Dr. Fan to facilitate the procedure and he told us after examining us that we were not having a miscarriage but were actually 16 weeks pregnant. Being the head of Ob/gyn at CPMC, he was able to get us an appt within an hour to have a thorough ultrasound which confirmed his assessment that we were further along in our pregnancy. The hospital texted him to let him know that we were okay and we have been seeing him ever since. Aside from being very knowledgeable and experienced, Dr. Fan is kind and genuinely caring. I recently fell down a short flight of stairs and was worried about the baby. We called Dr. Fan and he recommended that we immediately go to the hospital. He met us in the emergency room and checked several times to make sure that we were okay. It was so nice to see a familiar face and to know that you are in good hands. I would highly recommend him. read more

Do NOT go to this guy if you have fibroids. He knows nothing about "modern" techniques. I hesitate to call laparoscopy modern as it's been around since the 80's, which is about 30 years at this point. He lied to me repeatedly that I was not a candidate for laparoscopy even though from a basic websearch I had ascertained that I likely was (am getting the procedure with Dr. Leslie Kardos in a few weeks). He actually ASKED ME: "How do you get a 7cm fibroid out of a 1cm incision?" Um, it's removed in pieces (with a tool called a morcellator, which, yes, has only been around about 5 years or so). I did not educate him but I probably should have as I feel sorry for the women that will come after me seeking his poor advice. I really resent him acting like an expert on a subject he clearly knew nothing about. Doctors can't know everything, granted, but just tell me, 'well, this is what I do for this' instead of acting like it's my only option. Beware anyone who wants to schedule a surgery right away without letting you get a second opinion. I also saw Dr. Madland (shares the same office) and he is great: old school (in the best sense), calm, gentle, respectful and listened to my concerns, did not rush me. I can recommend him as a good basic gyno. Check out Dr. Leslie Kardos if you need specialized help- a lot of her clients for myomectomy are referred by a fertility center so she really focuses on helping you get pregnant, which is just what I needed. read more

Dr. Fan is great, caring and experienced. His staff is always very nice and it's never an issue to get an appointment. Would highly recommend him! read more

Dr Fan may be a good doctor on the medical side, but personally I prefer a different kind of interaction. I first saw Dr Fan a few days after I'd had a miscarriage during my first pregnancy. I was kept waiting 45 minutes after my scheduled appointment time, but was then treated in less than 3 minutes (I looked at my watch). I was expecting to spend a while in his treatment room asking questions, giving him my previous ob/gyn medical history (I'm British and my records are still in the UK), trying to find out if my approach to my health during pregnancy had been OK, and getting reassured that everything was now alright with my insides. Instead, he wasn't listening to my questions but talking over the top of them. After rushing in and performing a very quick ultrasound exam, while talking constantly, he dashed back out of the room. I continued to lie on the treatment bed because I assumed he was coming back. After about five minutes I got dressed and went to reception, where I was presented with the bill for $180 (I have a foreign insurer and have to reclaim it myself). So far, so strange. A few months later and pregnant again, I went back but got the same deal - a 45 minute wait, and then a quick ultrasound and he leaves. When I found him, he told me to make an appointment later in the month. I asked why he wasn't planning to do the standard blood tests and general health check, and why he wasn't making any notes or taking my previous history. He told me that I'd come too early in the pregnancy (why didn't they tell me this when I booked the appointment, before I took the afternoon off work, travelled across town on the bus, and waited nearly an hour to see him?) Since I was 5 weeks into the pregnancy, and have a history of miscarriage, this response was not reassuring. I wanted to ask questions, and he did answer them, but by this time we were in the corridor, and I had to keep saying "hang on please - I'd like to ask you about ...." to stop him rushing off. So again I got the impression that he was in a massive hurry and couldn't wait to hustle me out of the door. HIs answers were also somewhat confusing. Again I then received a $180 bill for a 3-minute appointment. Dr Fan seems to be a pleasant enough person, and his style may be fine for some - but personally when it comes to my obstetric health, I prefer not to feel as if I'm on a factory production line. I'm switching to another doctor. read more

Yay Dr. Fan! I started coming to Dr. Fan because my best friend recommended him. I was nervous about going for the first time because I'd never had a male gyno. But I was very comfortable with Dr. Fan - he told me about his family and was very pleasant. The office has also been extremely helpful when I wanted to change prescriptions or just ask questions. 5 stars for Dr. Fan! :) read more

He diagnosed me with something I didn't have and it emotionally and psychologically traumatized me for over a year and a half. I would give him zero stars if I could. In early 2016, I had an outbreak of blisters on my genitals, and I went to see Dr. Fan through a referral. He took a sample to run a test and then a few days later called to confirm that it was herpes. When I asked, "Was it HSV 2?", he said, "Yes, yes, HSV 2". I was shocked and confused. I knew my husband had HSV 1 from when he was a child, but he told me he didn't have HSV 2. Having been with my husband for close to 4 years, I had no idea where I'd gotten it from. I even began doubting my husband's fidelity, the same way he began doubting mine... I know, I know, they say just about EVERYONE has HSV 1 (oral herpes), but genital herpes is still very stigmatized and nobody ever talks about it. And even though herpes doesn't kill, and it doesn't do any real harm, it's still an incurable disease; it made me feel like damaged goods. For 6 months, I was afraid of having sex with my husband because I didn't want to give it to him if I hadn't already. My husband wanted me to get tested again bc he thought it could've been a false positive (I think it was mainly that he didn't want to accept the fact that I had HSV 2). So I went and got tested twice: after 3 months and then after 6 months (when they say the antibodies will be 100% detectable). Both times, the ELISA test was used and I was told that they NEVER give out false negatives. In other words, if it's negative, it's negative. Both times, my blood work came back negative. Huh? How was that possible? I was really confused. I called the clinic to ask "I was told I had HSV 2 by an OBGYN who ran a sample test... How is this possible?" and all they could say was "I don't know what to tell you. You're negative for HSV 2." So did I have it or not? Well, a year and a half later, I got my blood drawn for a totally irrelevant reason. The lab tech told me that I could see my results online on their website in a week or so. When I went to check my results, I noticed that there was a lab result that Dr. Fan had ordered. I opened it without really thinking much about it and saw this: "Culture positive for Herpes simplex virus. Typing of this isolate was not possible. The specimen was recultured but due to the low viral titer we were unable to re-isolate the virus for typing." WHAT THE F*CK. Dr. Fan LIED. He didn't know which type it was, but he just made a judgment based on nothing more than what he saw. He didn't bother to be a decent human being and honestly tell me that they weren't able to type the virus. He just took the shortcut and lied. If you're reading this, you might be thinking, "What's the big deal? You still have herpes." I'll tell you what the big deal is: genital-to-genital HSV 1 transmission is EXTREMELY RARE, whereas HSV 2 transmission is extremely common. So this whole time that I was scared of having sex with my husband out of fear of giving it to him, I had absolutely nothing to worry about. This whole time that I thought I had HSV 2, I most likely had HSV 1 on my genitals. Yes, it's still herpes, but it's different bc my husband already has HSV 1! I can't give him something he already has! In all honesty, this was the worst lie anyone has ever told me. It infuriates me to the core and I'd sue him for malpractice if I knew how. The amount of emotional and psychological distress I experienced is not something I can put into words. All I can say is: Dr. Fan is dishonest. Go somewhere else. read more

I went to my appointment with Dr. Fan and he seemed very rushed. I arrived for the appointment a little early and waited at least 35 minutes past the appointment time to see him. I do not mind waiting, but in this case I waited and only got a 5 minute appointment. He was not like my old OB doctor in San Francisco, who would provide advice, ask me questions, review my medical history, and allow me to ask as many questions as I needed. Dr. Fan seems like a nice guy, but I do not plan to return because he seemed to rushed, and did not really answer my questions. read more

Dr Fan delivered my 2 infants. I am very happy to have him as my OB. He is always kind, attentive and answers all my questions. For my 1st child, he was in hospital with me since early of the evening but until 1 AM I delivered. Even though the nurse said that I did not manage to push, Dr Fan still encouraged me that I did so well (I mean in this situation you should be encouraged, right?) For my 2nd child, until my 37th week pregnancy, her head was still up. Besides, I got placental disorder. However, Dr Fan gave me precious advices and encouraged me a lot which made me feel relieved. He sent me to CPMC for regular check-up and finally I got my girl with natural delivery (The doctor in CPMC told me that 90% of the cases that have "head-up" situation like me were delivered by Dr Fan) I wish I could write more but nothing could express my gratefulness to Dr Fan. If I have another baby, for sure, Dr Fan is my 1st and only choice read more

When it comes to doctors, San Francisco has plenty of great ones; let's face it, we're in the heart of one of the top medical research communities in the world, right? But Dr.Fan manages to stand out even in that kind of company. He has a knack for remembering names and personal info, even though many of his patients see him only once a year. He never makes you feel as though he has other clients waiting, taking time to catch up like you're old friends before beginning the exam. Also assuring you that "Everything will be fine" . read more

Absolutely a great kind respectful doctor! He is a doctor with lots of experiences plus amazing attitude and manner...

Raising to 3 stars for Veronica, an admin who is helpful and reasonable. She adjusted my fee and called me back promptly. I still think it is excessive for a prescription renewal which I don't even use anymore, but I respect that Dr. Fan and his office is making an effort to be reasonable. read more

After you read this, you decide if he deserves a star or if you feel he can be trusted with your life or your unborn child. This doctor failed and neglected to assess my symptoms and physical complaints during my pregnancy. He insisted everything was fine and not to worry. Pleasant upon approach then after couple of visits you see a different side of him. To make our long and painful story short- we lost our baby as a stillbirth (dead baby!) couple weeks prior to due date. You be the judge. Office staff is ok (1 star for them). read more
