Tam Ka Wai MD - Foster City, California

Most horrible health care provider I have come across. Never on time, has failed several times in diagnosing the right symptoms, have given incorrect medications that has resulted in worsening of the pain. Never ordered prescription on time. I'd never recommend this provider to anyone

Very unprofessional. Meds don't get refilled in a timely manner that even CVS has had it. They'll let you go without to the point of arriving to the ER. Phone calls and referral requests are not being addressed after ten days of calling. This is on a regular basis!
I realize I am one of many patients, but this is why doctors have medical assistants and a staff to follow up.
Staff always answers the phone sounding half asleep and uninterested in helping patients.
I'll never return here. Disgusting.

Never come to this place! Most disappointed experience I've ever had. This is the reason why they are accepting new patients because NO ONE WANTS TO VISIT HERE!
1. time management is extremely bad. Put down my appointment time wrong and then ask me to reschedule. They never value our patients' time. I am gonna sue them for wasting my time.
2. even you arrive on time, it is likely you will need to wait for 20 ~ 30 mins to get seen. Then the doctor will limit your questions and visit time so that you have to come back often. No, I'll never do that!

Great experience with Dr. Tam. I particularly value that he was very up front with his predictions for whether or not the services rendered would be covered by insurance. A quarter or so of our discussion was actually about how to maneuver the visit to be covered by my insurance plan.

Beyond that, I felt he was experienced and knowledgeable for my particular visit. I highly recommend Dr. Tam Ka Wai MD.

I do wish he spent a little more time getting to know his patients, as he did not ask me any questions about my health history, diet, or lifestyle. But I understand, as he was the only physician working that day at this clinic.

First of all, I had bad feelings from the beginning because the receptionists were unfriendly. Dr.Tam was the worst doctor we ever had. We waited for more than an hour but the doctor spend time with us only for like 10 mins. He limits questions from patients to ask only one question and if we want to ask more than one question even related to the issue you are concerned about, he is annoyed to answer any more. He writes his reports and does paper work and prints while we are talking so there is not much time to consult with him. I guess he wants to get all his work done during the office hours. The second time we went, he was the same. More over, he gave us wrong documents to turn into school, so we had to go to his office again. Even my son says he never wants to go to that doctor again.

Dr Tam doesn’t care. I am out of medicine and called his office 7 times over 3 days and total radio silence. The nurse told me that she left urgent note on his desk and he still completely ignored it.

Always late for more than one hour. Waste of time
