She signed on as a TVB actress and has since made other series, most notably ''Untraceable Evidence'', playing the calm and collected forensics doctor, "Pauline Lip"; and in ''Healing Hands'', a TVB series known for its cutting edge medical topics and its star-studded cast which included Lawrence Ng, Ada Choi, Bowie Lam and William So.
In 2002, Chan won the coveted "Most Favorite TV Actress" award presented annually by TVB.
