I came to my appointment in a lot of pain and difficulty moving. Dr. Chen was very thorough in gathering information related to my pain. His bedside manner was excellent and he explained every step. There was a significant improvement in my pain symptoms and ability to move within two days of my appointment. Truly one of the best healthcare provider experiences I've had in a very long time.

January 9, 2019Steven B.Verified patient
I started seeing Dr. Chen cause I was in acute back pain 6 weeks after the delivery of my twins. It was easy to get an appointment and I started feeling better right away. Dr. Chen was very kind and willing to work with me when other doctors said they couldn’t help with the pain because I was breast feeding. I highly recommend!
