Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Chen is wonderful.
Connie and Victoria were so kind to me. Losing my husband recently has been emotional. Thank you to them Dr. Chen and Dale. I appreciate you so much.

The Best GI Specialist
Dr. Chen has been my GI doctor for almost 30 years. He is focused and professional and I trust him implicitly with my GI health. (endoscopies and colonoscopies) Great staff and facilities and I couldn’t ask for a better GI specialty group.
