MEETS MY FAMILY'S AND MY NEEDS
Very knowledgeable and also practical in his approach, and recommendations. Takes the time to discuss options and not just jump to his own favorite approach. Always easy and comfortable to talk with.
Dr. Cahn is an excellent communicator and explains things in a way that a non-medical professional would understand. In my many years of experience with Dr. Chan I consider him to be an excellent Primary Care physician.

From the reception desk to the nurse to the doctor was very professional and friendly.
Very personable.
Great listener, personable
Dr. Chan did remember our last appointment, which was important to me given the emotional state that I was in with losing my brother suddenly under tragic circumstances. He also sent a follow up to the ENT specialist to reach out to me to schedule my surgery to have my tonsils removed, which I was contacted that same day before 5pm. It's important to know that the doctor genuinely cares about my well being and Dr. Chan did take note that I had not make or complete my yearly appointments in 2022 for a mamogram and OB/GYN, and said this needed to be done right away. I will be sure to follow through on this.

Well prepared
I really appreciated his attention to care and to me, listening to my description of needs and how they were adequately addressed.
Everything that makes the patient feel comfortable, understood, and cared for. Professional and friendly.
Dr. Chan was very rude and condescending. He made me feel very stupid for thinking I had what I did based on my symptoms. He continued to question (almost interrogate me) about how I felt I would have gotten what I thought I had. Every answer I gave he shot down and was very rude about it. He also made a comment about my husband being deployed and how it was a good move on his part to be deployed while I was sick with covid and so were my 3 kids. I will never do a visit or recommend someone to do a visit with Dr. Chan.
Fast and efficient service
very friendly and concerned about my overall health
Excellent
Complaint was of shortness of breath. Dr didn’t listen to chest or lungs. Suggested using medication as a diagnostic tool.

Dr Chan always listen and answer my questions patiently.
Dr. Chan is an amazing doctor. I appreciate the calmness that comes from him. Assertive in his communication and he makes it very easy to understand what my current situation is and how to improve it. He always makes himself available to see me. He’s the BEST! Thank you Dr. Chan!
Keep doing what you do. You are great doctor
I was a little disappointed that a tentative diagnosis was made without an actual examination and no further tests were recommended or ordered.

He was very nice and informative regarding my issue
It's always nice to talk and consult with Dr. Chan.
Seems like a nice guy, but is clearly overworked and overbooked. Always in a rush to move onto the next patient and never seems to really hear me. I will not be seeing him again.
We love Dr. Chan and recommend him to all of our friends and family!

Excellent primary care physician.

I feel dr Chan doesn't always listen/hear what I'm saying he's so busy typing on the computer the whole time
Dr. Chan always listens to me and evaluates.
Dr. Chan has always been very engaged with me...answers all my questions...explains in simple language any issues...always concerned about my health and well being...could not ask for a better "health team mate" and "coach"...
Good.
I have recommended this doctor to others and I see on our local nextdoor app that others beside myself have also recommended this doctor
very good
Nurse and primary doctor were very patient with me since I wear a hearing aid and have difficulty in understanding what they were saying!
Excellent Care
I have been sick for a while now. just feeling like crap. Dr. Chan never makes me feel like I'm wasting his time or bothering him. he takes time with me and lets me know I matter.
Dr. Chan is very professional and I feel very comfortable with the information and care he provides.
Good
Dr. Chan is great
satisfied with service
provider is not pay attention in details and recommended just a very simple basic things to finish the session quick. He did what job requires him to do but it's not the passion with job or did not show compassion to his patient.
Dr. Chan is a good listener and hears what I have to say.
Dr. Chan always gives me follow up materials. i.e. weight loss tips, list of doctors regarding any other obstacle outside his specialty. Great listener and Doctor.
Every thing very good -
Outstanding, I am glad the practice is part of Stanford Health Care.
Very satisfied with Dr. Chan. We feel comfortable asking any questions and answers are thorough and understandable.
Dr. Chan & I have a good relationship - I have NO complaints with him or his practice.
very good
Good
Not sure phy. always listens carefully to concern. Hardly every any physical contact except handshake.
very satisfied with care provider
Dr. Edward Chan is very professional and listen to all my concern answered all my question.
I like my doctor.
Dr. Chan was very active in checking out my mobility to determine the extent of my injuries.
I had an appointment with Dr. Chan, and yet I spent more time during my appointment with his PA, who was a lovely lady and who showed more concern to me and my worries than Dr. Chan. Out of the entire 40-45 minutes appointment, Dr. Chan barely spent 10 minutes of that with me, flying through my concerns and was not of much help to me at all. I would not recommend him, and will not be making another appointment with him again.
Dr Chan is an outstanding physician
good
I have recommended Dr Edward Chan to friends!
extremely dismissive, condescending
Dr. Chan has been great! He always responds to my emails quickly and addresses my concerns/questions about my pregnancy.
the staff (administrative and medical) left me feeling comfortable
I have already several times recommended my provider on our Nextdoor app as neighbors often ask for recommendations I live in a small town
Dr. Chan is great with our son. He is always very patient with his worried moms and listens to all my questions & concerns without making me feel rushed.
Most of the time I leave feeling everything was taken care adequately. This visit was more rushed and I was out in a hurry.
The Doctor was likely correct that the soreness I felt was muscular, still I was disappointed that he didn't put his hands on me to feel the spot in my back where I felt this soreness.
Dr. Chan was great! He explained what he was going to do, in this case test me for Influenza. Explained the course of action depending on the test results. Followed up with a call within the time he had discussed with me.
good
I will never return to this clinic. This guy was just awful. Bad listener, pushy, not remotely knowledgeable regarding mental health, did not discuss my general health (this was an annual checkup), and did not explain reasons for tests he ordered. It was clear he just wasn't making an effort. Absolutely wasted my time and money.
Dr. was very patient w/explanations since I wear a hearing aid & having problems understanding.
Dr. Chan is wonderful. I trust him completely.
Dr. Chan was friendly but I didn't find that he was particularly empathetic or a good listener. For the level of care that I received, I could have easily just done a phone or online consultation but that was not an available option. I had pretty much the kind of experience that makes me avoid going to the doctor - didn't listen, waved off my concerns, and basically indicated that I had wasted everyone's time, especially his and mine.
I felt that he took a little extra care in listening to my cares and concerns.
With the current situation Dr. Chan took his time to help me understand what was going on and the next courses of action that needed to be taken
Dr. Chan is an excellent and attentive physician.
good
he was a really nice Dr. compassionate and funny
Dr. Chan is great.
Good
good
Dr. Chan was so patient with me. He had to remove an earring and give me a shot and I was so scared and a baby but he was so kind and understanding. I am so thankful for his kindness. Once he numbed my ear, he was able to get the earring right off that was stuck. Thank you Doctor Chan!
Dr Chan did an excellent job.
Very pleased with the care provided by Dr. Chan.
Dr. Edward Chan has been my PCP for approximately 7 years or longer. He is professional, kind, extremely knowledgeable, fantastic bed-side manner, comfortable and has ALWAYS led me in the right direction. He discusses alternatives with me should I ask about other methods. Easy to talk with. Best PCP I have ever had.
I have Bells Palsy. Dr. didn't seem to know a lot about it nor about Ramsey Hunt which is what I believe I might have. he did give me a referral to a specialist though, so I was pleased with that outcome.
Good
Dr. Chan was sooooooooo Kind and patient with me. I hate needles and the unknown and he stayed calm, an collected until I let him numb my ear. Thank you Dr. Chan for being kind
excellent care
Excellent experience
Dr. Chan and all the staff are excellent.
Good
Professional and very competent
I felt horrible when I got there. I was seen quick and courteous. on my way within ten minutes. I knew what was wrong before I got there, just needed antibiotics. another great visit.
Dr. Chan is very thorough. I like that he provides a "to do" list before next visit.
Dr.Chan and his assistant were professional, attentive, showed empathy, and enthusiasm.
Dr Chan knowledgeable, friendly, professional and genuinely concerned.
Dr. Chan was very friendly & experienced.
Very good
Dr. Chan makes it fun (again) to visit a physician!! Glad I found his office.
dr Chan is helpful and always listens to any concerns that I may have. he has provided me good advice.
Everything went very smoothly with no problems.
with the handout I know more about what to do for my sinus problems.
The preventative exam was really just reviewing family history, blood pressure and a quick test. More in depth questions I had we glossed over. Not sure if this was out of the bounds of a 'preventative exam' but the waiver I had to sign before I even walked back made me hesitant to ask follow up questions.
It is easy to communicate with Dr. Chan.
Dr. Chan takes as much time with me as I need. This appointment I needed more. I have recently been through a handful of stressful situations, and he heard me and advised me with my medication. it has been 5 days since my visit, and I had the best day today, than I have had in over a year. He listened to my concerns and together we adjusted my medication. My stomach issues have pretty much cleared up! As much as I hate going to the doctor, Dr. Chan makes it a positive experience.
I have seen Karen Kline for many years and she provides excellent care and service.
Good
I had an appendicitis that required surgery and everyone did a fantastic job of assessing my situation, referring me for lab and CTScan work, and getting me in for surgery within 48 hours.
Very pleased with the care received by Dr. Chan.
Good experience
Dr. Chan was amazing. He is what I am looking for a PCP. Genuine, intelligent, sociable, puts you at ease.
very prompt and caring by all the staff and doctor.
I had a list of things to discuss with Dr. Chan and he took the time to go through them all with me, and understood my concerns about various items on the list.
Dr Chan is very knowledgeable
Dr. Edward Chad is exceptional. He has been my Primary Care physician for 8+ year I believe. Has Always given me wonderful advice and is so easy to talk with
Also great service and communication.
I was treated with respect and compassion by Dr. Chan.
Very good. The staff and doctor really paid attention to my needs.
Dr. Chan has always given me excellent service along with his staff.
Erica Chong is excellent and consistently so
she could have done a better job listening to me without interjecting
Is always fun and informative to meet with Dr. Chan; I look forward to my visits at the practice.
excellent experience with Erica. she was very throughout about each concern and found a potential contraindication and I was very impressed.
Very friendly doctor, but could have been more clear about the next steps to take regarding my appointment.
Not compassionate at times. Does not seem to find a way to ease my needs. A little arrogant. Does not pay attention to my medical history. Sometimes he'd mentioned medical history that are no longer current or might relate to someone else?
Excellent doctor.
Excellent
Health improving with new meds and advise from DR.
I felt that Dr. Chan and I were not quite on the same page this visit. I was concerned about one thing and he was focused on something else.
Dr. Chan was patient and helpful
Is always a treat to talk with Dr. Chan
Good
Dr. Chan has been very proficient and personable. He responds to my emails- not a common practice in many other clinics and I really appreciate it.
Dr. Chan is great. He has been my doctor for approximately 6 years. Excellent relationship and I trust him very much.
dr. chan is very knowledgeable and thorough. c
I love Dr chan and his ma, oh yea Terry too.
All good.
I received excellent care
Good experience
I came in (as instructed) to follow up on a finger joint injury with swelling because the pain and swelling had not resolved after 2 weeks. The doctor didn't even look at the finger, or try to confirm whether the initial diagnosis was right. No exam, just a conversation.
Dr. Chan is wonderful!
Dr. Chan in an excellent doctor, with bed side manners to match. I have beaver felt uncomfortable or left unhappy!
fair
he was great
Catherine Egelhoff is the perfect example of a compassionate, professional care provider.
Dr. Chan responds to my emails through MyHealth within hours. He is responsive and incredibly timely. I never have to wait for visits. One of the many reasons I hope to never go back to Kaiser.
i feel like Dr Chan is only half listening / distracted and usually seems in a hurry to be done and out.
good experience
Dr Chan always shows deep concern at every visit with me. Never rushing, can make decisions accurately, give fantastic advice and also accepts my suggestions at times as I know my body well. I'm able to talk comfortably about what I feel I need. Then, he evaluates and acts upon it or gives me other suggestions of any risks
Dr. Chan is very caring and thorough.
I was in such pain I was in tears. dr. chan did not leave the room until I was calm. he's a very good doctor
Dr. Chan is the best doctor that i have had to date
my Dr said I would get a call back in a few days when in fact I was called back within a few hours
Good
Dr Chan was very thorough with my visit
the most recent visit was for an eye infection/problem, and the PA after doing the interview vision test and eye exam promptly made a referral to an opthomologist. THEN she made sure that the person who actually scheduled my erferral apptmt did so for a time that was convenient to me. That is service above & beyond - I could have contacted the referred Doctor and done that myself but Alameda Family Physicians did this to make sure I was able to get in right away
Will be looking for a new care provider after the new year. I don't feel my health concerns are being addressed adequately.
I trust Dr. Chan, yet he forgot to give me the follow-up papers, or explain how I am to use the "My Health" to get the info.
Dr. Chan was very caring and concerned for my well-being.
dr.c rocks
Dr Chan is great. Very happy with him.
Since I am have hearing problems (I use a hearing aid), Dr. Chan was very patient in repeating his answers to my concerns.
Dr. Chan doesn't hear what I am saying. I feel he dismissed my concerns and isn't interested in me enough to really engage with me. he was unprepared for this annual check up, had nit revieed my chart, did not know about the other doctors I have seen at Stanford during the past year.
Dr. Chan recalled visit with my wife and her condition. Asked how she and I were doing with it. Excellent
This was my 1st time seeing this Dr. I was impressed with his friendliness which I was not expecting yet, he was thorough and professional.
Good
good
Dr. Chan is absolutely an incredible Doctor. He listens intently about my concerns and needs. He discusses options, nutrition plans, he evaluates suggestions I come up with (questions I have). Then, he'll explain why it may need another route to follow. I email him with questions also. He is so on-top and timely with all my needs. recently, Anthem and Affinity Medical group almost didn't renew (Sep 01, 2016). I was devastated that I may have to find another Doctor other than Dr. Chan. I was so relieved when Anthem and Affinity resolved their negotiations so I could stay with Dr. Chan.
Dr Chan did an excellent job - professional, knowledgeable, engaging and friendly.
good experience
I'm in a pretty intense amount of pain, but his response throughout was super casual. Oh sounds like your stressed. Rest and ibruprofen should help, even though this is going on 4 months. It's not as if he was callous, just sort of unconcerned.
Love the practice. My wife and I both elected to stay with our current doctors and self-pay when the insurance company dropped you from network coverage and told us we had to change doctors. But fix the insurance.
Dr. Chan is a very caring doctor. I would recommend him to anyone.
Dr. Chan is very familiar with my health history and I look forward to my visits with him. My health has improved under his care.
Dr Chan was great. It is very nice having a doctor that listens and gives advice instead of blowing someone off.
Very glad to see Dr. Chan another time if Dr. Sellman is out.
Great phone follow-up
Data entry consumes his focus. Yet I have confidence in this provider. Would not want to change provicer
Care provider was very knowledgeable and confident
Dr Chan displays excellent knowledge and genuine concern and understanding.
It was a good experience - doctor was friendly - smiled, provided information when I asked for more detail, trust him.
caring and compassion...
Dr. Chan is one of the best
Dr. Chan is very nice & kind.
The doctor was very understanding when discussing side effects on one of the medications that I was taking
very good care. Referral to physio and answering phone call question about such positively.
The way my visits were handled were excellent, better than previous OBs. I have been seen.
All in all I'm satisfied with everything
Dr. Chan always takes as much time as needed.This appointment seemed to me to be longer than most, due to MY needs. He never made me feel as if I was wasting his time.
Top notch!
Very good except preoccupied with data entry in computer. Seems a bit busy with machine rather than patient interaction.
I was ill w the flu going into second week.just checking I did not have pneumonia . The staff was very considerate to my situation
I am so happy with Dr. Chan and the entire Stanford group at Alameda Family Physicians.
this was my first visit with this doctor. It seemed somewhat difficult to engage him. Most of his time was spent staring at the screen.
Very confident of the Doctor's ability in my first visit with him.
Although Dr. Chan is not my primary doctor. I've now had his medical care on 3 occasions. He is great and I feel comfortable discussing all my post-colon cancer issues with him.
Dr. Chan had been very atttentive to my care and well being during my last and this current pending pregnancy. I'm definitely feeling I get the care that I needed from Dr. Chan.
Again, the doctor was very helpful in making his instructions clear since I use a hearing-aid...
Doesn't listen to my problem or health problem.
If I had to see Dr. Chan again, I would stop going to Alameda Family Physicians. He was dismissive of all my concerns, and gave me no real options. I ended up having to see someone else three days later, so my visit to Dr. Chan was a costly waste.
My time at MD Chan and his staff are always pleasant .
I didn't feel rushed and had a good conversation regarding medication being prescribed and felt part of the decision making process
Excellent service.
The doctor was excellent. He listened to me and spent a lot of time with me.
I a very pleased with the nurse assistance and the doctor. They are both great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Indeed and always a good experience each time and every appointment.
Dr. Chan has an excellent manner, grasps the situation quickly and has ideas for solving it all while making sure that nothing feels rushed or unanswered and that there is a clear plan for followup.
Very professional; friendly and knowledgeable...
I would say that in the past 2 years, there has been a significant improvement in the degree to which I have confidence in my Dr., that he knows and understands my individual health issues and is able to provide assistance.
All good, but it was an initial quick visit. Dr. Chan was kind enough to include rehab exorcises which were unexpected though!
very excellent service. Dr. Chan also reached out on another medical problem plantar fasciitis and provided a printout of exercises I could do at home.
Good as ok
Dr. Parker was amazing. She helped me and my daughter through a stressful situation and will continue to work with us as long as it takes to get my daughter's condition under control.
very good and very much concern about my problem.
I was seen by Karen Kline and she is one of the best things about this practice
very competent and to the point .
Dr Chan is very professional and took the time to go over several things with me. I was not rushed at all, and able to go over my concerns with him.
Dr. Chan looks you in the eyes when he speaks. He's concerned and quite helpful. He advises and recommends, but it is up to me to follow through... no reflection on him. I always have a great experience, no matter what I have to go in for. I feel very lucky.
Dr. Chan is a very good listener & took all the time needed to run through my issues. Dr. Chan is a nice man & fine doctor.
His knowledge about meds he prescribed to me is poor. He doesn't know/forgets what has been prescribed to me at times.
I was a military wife, used to very short visits - with little follow through. I am AWWWED by this service and expertise.
Spends a lot of time on the computer while in session.
Doc. was fine. Easy to understand and to the point. Didn't waste time.
Dr. Chan is an excellent doctor for my elderly mother.
Karen has taken excellent care of me & my husband.
Good.
Didn't show much concern.
