If you are a foreigner & you want to use your Private Insurance to cover your Cataract Surgery, I totally advice you not to go to Jerry Tan Clinic or any Singapore clinic. Firstly, they are an absolute rip off. I have a family friend who has paid over $40,000 for her Pre & Post Cataract Surgery at Jerry Tan. In Australia, cataract surgery only cost $2,000-$3000 per eye. Henceforth, it is a total rip off!! Honestly, if you have a private insurance coverage, cost won’t matter, but for foreigners, all claim process is reimbursed. This is because foreign private health insurance card is not recognized in Singapore. So, claim process becomes a huge hassle since Dr. Jerry Tan is not helpful with the claim process. I have a feeling they deliberately do not give my friend her test results, official receipts & medical resume upon checking out because they know that when she arrived back home, to her home country, the insurance company will ask for those supporting documents. So, when my friend contacted the Clinic, she had to pay around $200 each for any missing documents that her insurance company requested. To put matters worst, Dr. Jerry Tan is so reluctant to help and this prolonged my friend’s claim process. It took my friend 6 months to get documents sorted with Dr. Jerry Tan. Dr. Jerry Tan is an absolute jackass of a person to deal with. Honestly, who cares if he has over 30 years of experience when his after sales service is so bad. All he cares about is taking client’s money, hence I don’t recommend anyone to do cataract surgery with him

Go see Dr Tan if you can afford to : 1. Wait for well over an hour to see a specialist for all of 5 mins, 2. Be put through a battery of different machines which will take another 30 mins and cost you a few hundred dollars for photos and eye pressure results when you come back each time, 3. Spend close to $1000 for your annual check up where the doctor barely spends 30 seconds looking at the results from Item 2 above. I have since left to see another specialist of equal qualification at Mt E and my annual bill now is about 1/4 of what I used to pay at Jerry Tan Clinic. And I spend less than half the time waiting !
I have done Lasik @ Jerry Tan Eye Surgery for 1 year. Today I took a nap on a table, with my left eye press against my bicep while folding arms. I fell asleep around 4:20 p.m. and woke up around 4:50 p.m. with the same posture. When I woke up, I realized my left eye vision was blurred!!! It was estimated (by myself) to be 2 times blurrier than my right eye😱😱😱😱 I had myself rested for 10 minutes; however, the blurriness did not disappear. I messaged Dr. Jerry Tan immediately at 5:03 pm. God Bless, he messaged me back in half an hour at 5:31pm💖💖💖💖 and already booked me a next-day appointment out of his busy schedules🌻 I am so gratefulll🌷 At 8 p.m., I gained back my original vision. I do feel it's a false alarm. However At the point where my left eye vision was 2 times worse than my right eye (I can't see people’s faces within 2 meters with my left eye😳😳😳😳😳😳) I almost thought I was going to lose my vision; I rather lost ten years of life for my eye. Luckily, human bodies are kind of strong builds, but remember, everyone’s body has some deviation. I really, really urge everyone reading my message to be alert. Wether you have done your surgery on your eye or not, please, please DO NOT sleep on your eyes👀👀👀👀👀 The posture increases your eye pressure and leads to blood vessel obstruction; your corneal might swift and displace, which leads to temporary corneal folds or, at worst, permanent!!!!!!!!! Not even when you sleep, even when you are doing other exercises, use whatever safety precautions to protect themmm😤😤😤😤 I am so glad I chose Dr. Jerry Tan💗💗💗💗💗💗 Thank you for your prompt response. At least I knew that someone who knows his stuff is by my side; it gave me some serenity to calm down. Doing eye laser surgery is still one of the BEST choices I have ever made.🪴 If you also did this surgery, please don’t take it for granted. Love your eyes as if they were your one and only treasure. Loving yourself before loving others because when it’s your turn to love others, you will know what’s empathy and grace. Dr. Tan and his staff had given us a beautiful start; it’s on us to maintain and prolong the surgery’s result. Last but not least, I hope my next day checkup turns out to be fine, and I will update again🌻 God Blessss🌈 21:08 12/09/24 17:30 13/09/24 My eyes are doing great 💗 Thank God✨✨✨✨💖💖💖💖
Highly recommended if you are looking for one of the best eye surgeons who is experienced, friendly, compassionate and places your eyes' health as his first priority! Dr Jerry Tan is an extremely knowledgeable, reliable and compassionate doctor, having treated my grandmother's eyes since he was in SNEC and performed lasik on my aunt, my mum, my cousin and for myself (recently). After more than 26 years all of them still have perfect vision without any problems. Dr Tan and his staff are all very friendly and professional in providing top notch services. They will walk patients through the entire surgical process with clarity and put their safety as their top priority. The entire process was very reassuring with the quality service provided by Dr Tan and his team with personal coaching during the actual surgery. I'm extremely grateful that under Dr Tan's expertise and his team's care i have achieved better than perfect vision with seamless recovery! Truly an exceptional experience!
Amazing experience from pre-visit inquiry over the phone all the way till post surgery follow ups. Got to know of Jerry Tan via word-of-mouth from my friend. Price range is definitely on the more premium side, but so is their excellent service, delivery and support! I first spoke to Rachel over the phone, who is one of the most bubbly, patient, knowledgeable and experienced support staff, ever. The process started from a pre-lasik assessment (a very very comprehensive one done that took 5 hours) --> detailed instructions on what kind of lasik is performed, and how to prepare for it --> surgery day which is went absolutely smoothly (Jerry Tan is extremely skillful and all their staff are very reassuring and supportive) --> and then finally several post-surgery follow ups to make sure your eyes are recovering well. I got perfect vision only less than a day after surgery for each eye. I don't experience any night glares or halos that people commonly complained about when they did lasik elsewhere. Despite how experienced and skillful he is, Jerry Tan still consistently travels abroad for conferences to ensure his skillset and equipment are up to date. Definitely one of the best investments of my life. Thank you Dr. Jerry Tan and team! 🤎
Dr Jerry Tan has been our most trusted eye surgeon for more than a decade. When I had to have my cataract surgery done last year, he was the obvious go-to surgeon of choice. With all his experience, knowledge, passion, skills-set, and patience, absolutely no reason for us to take any risk with another practitioner. The outcome of the surgery was as expected, my eye sight is now perfect and the recovery was uneventful!! It was worth all the money that we invested in restoring my eyesight to perfection. We took our first vacation post surgery, hunting for Aurora in the Arctic.......the explosion of colors (true colors finally!) was amazing, not forgetting the Pure White snow cloaked the landscape of Sweden and Norway, thanks to Dr Jerry Tan I certainly am enjoying quality of life!
Dr Jerry Tan is a very passionate doctor who will spend his time explaining to me on my eye condition. I started seeing Dr Tan when I my vision deteriorated. His clinic at first glance gave me the warm feeling of being at home rather than being at clinic. My astigmatism increase quite a bit and I had dry eyes. Dr Tan and his staff explained to me thoroughly on what is happening to my eyes. A few trick here and there by Dr Tan, my eyes are perfectly well now and I no longer suffers from dry eyes. And I’m pretty happy with my new pair of glasses. 😉 Highly recommend if you are looking for a compassionate and friendly doctor to take care of your eyes. Not forgetting all the friendly and smiling staffs of his that make you always want to visit his clinic and not others.
Dr Jerry Tan is knowledgeable and proficient with many years of experience under his belt. The clinic is well equipped with medical devices that help Dr Tan formulate a treatment for the best possible outcome. Had a successful LASIK surgery done here, grateful that I don't need to rely on glasses anymore. The staff is affable, providing a pleasant experience every step of the way, from pre-operation to post-operation. Furthermore, Dr Tan even cured a skin issue I was unaware about. Overall, great results and would highly recommend.
