Reviews
Positive experience , made me me feel like I was really cared for. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
First visit with him and I think he wil be a great doctor. He is way better than dr. Bean was
Dr. Chen was great answering all the questions that I needed to know he was very patient with me when he was asking me questions and I was slow to answer because I couldn't remember some dates. He treated me like a patient should be treated. He ask did I have any concerns about anything and he ask me did I have any questions for him. He listens to all feed back and he had answers. Thank you Dr. Chen For a great visit.
very friendly & patient & understanding. a good staff.
First visit with him and I think he wil be a great doctor. He is way better than dr. Bean was
