Zachary Tan, MD

As an emergency medicine physician at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate care to my patients. The fast-paced environment of emergency medicine captivates me, as it demands quick decision-making and a thorough understanding of medical principles. I thrive on the collaboration and support that define our emergency department, where teamwork is essential for delivering effective care. My role allows me to engage with patients from various backgrounds, offering tailored support even in the most challenging circumstances.

I specialize in emergency medicine with a particular focus on the use of advanced ultrasound technology to enhance diagnostic accuracy and treatment efficacy. My fellowship in ultrasound at NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital reinforced my dedication to this field. With years of experience, I am passionate about leveraging ultrasound to provide precise and effective care.

As a member of NYU Langone’s ultrasound faculty, I am excited to guide and mentor emerging professionals in our field. This role allows me to contribute not only to the delivery of care but also to the education and development of our team. I am dedicated to cultivating an environment of innovation, collaboration, and empathy, ensuring that our department remains a supportive space for both patients and healthcare providers.

During medical school at the University of Illinois College of Medicine in Chicago, I encountered a diverse array of patients and their stories. These experiences instilled in me a deep appreciation for the human side of medicine, guiding me toward a career that prioritizes holistic patient wellbeing. My commitment to using advanced technology to improve patient outcomes continues to inspire my work at NYU Langone.
