Ian Chan, MD

You are not gonna believe what I’ve been through at this place! Flushing Optical referred me to Ian Chan office for check up of glaucoma.
My following experiences was very dramatic. I made an appointment with Ian Chan office at 2:30pm, I especially asked if they can see me on time, they said they sure can, I told them if they can’t see me on time I am not even gonna bother to make appointments with them.
So here I come, got there 2:30, however there is like 10 patients ahead of me, I waited till 4pm!
They didn’t ask any information from me, they took the referring slip from Flushing Optical then that’s it, and they dilated my pupils ! They dilated my pupils without even telling me! And of course they didn’t ask weather I drove! And I did drove from Long island that day!
The funny thing is that after they dilated my pupils they are like Oops ! They are like Oops, we don’t check for Glaucoma, we are a specialist for retina !
No one in that clinic ever said sorry to me! I was dilated for no reasons! They told me to go to another doctor and check for Glaucoma, if I go there quickly, i may get my eyes checked that day. So I was like, ok, I am not gonna argue with you anymore, so I went to another doctor they refer to. And that doctor told me, they couldn’t check my eyes on the same day, because my pupils are dilated already! So Ian Chan office don’t have the basic knowledge that pupils shall not be dilated in order to get glaucoma checked.
The next day I canceled my important business meeting to go to the doctor’s office again, and I was told my eyes are fine, I don’t have glaucoma, yes, just like what my own eye doctor told me at the first place!
So Flushing Optical, terrible place! if you want to risk your health and your safety, come here.

I found dr. Chan on Unilocal.
My eye was very red and I knew there was something wrong probably due to the fact that I wear contacts for about 15 hours a day.
I was able to schedule an appt on the same day due to my situation.
I didn’t know that he was a retina specialist and not a regular ophthalmologist. After he did a check up for me, he told me there were abrasions in my eye and even though it wasn’t his speciality, he still wrote me prescriptions so I could get better asap.
The visit was super fast and I would’ve loved if he were a regular ophthalmologist! He was super thorough.
Highly recommend him for patients who have retina issues !

I went to see Doctor Chan today for a routine check up. He is very polite and informative. I highly recommend him.

I found Dr. Chan on Unilocal because he had great reviews. I am extremely glad I did, Dr. Chan was more than kind enough to look at my mothers eye condition and was polite in every step of the way.
You should really go here if you don’t have an ophthalmologist of if you’re in need of one. You won’t regret coming here.
They’re Bilingual in English and Chinese, there is no street parking since it’s in the middle of Main Street but there are parking garages around there.

I found Dr Ian Chan through my Emblem Health Physician search and was glad I did. My eye swelled up and i called around looking for a doctor that would see me right away. Making an appt was easy, Dr. Chan saw me the same day, the wait was short and Dr. Chan himself was pleasant, thorough and highly reccommended.

Dr. Chan is top notch.
I’m a physician and was an ophthalmology resident when Dr. Chan was a fellow, so I know the very inner workings of his treatment of patients. He is clearly in the upper echelon. He treats every patient like family and his clinical acumen and surgical skills are among the top I’ve ever seen. I highly recommend him.

Seriously, he is the best doctor i’ve ever met in my life, ever! He is very very kind, gentle and super patient with questions. I’m so pleased with my experience here and highly recommend him. Oh he is also fluent in Chinese if it’s relevant to your case.
