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.

Great experience with Dr. Chen
Dr. Chen spent time to diagnose and explain my condition thoroughly. I have scheduled surgery based on his recommendations.

An Outstanding Physician
From the moment you meet Dr Chen you feel reassured that you're in the right hands. His easy-going, soft-spoken, and cheerful demeanor help provide the confidence one needs when confronted with an unexpected health event, especially a surgical procedure. Dr Chen listened attentively and with great interest to both medical as well as affective concerns offering suggestions and recommendations clearly and with great deliberation. While complicated surgical repairs were considered, he contemplated and offered alternatives based upon age, cognitive status, as well as long-term care needs which was greatly appreciated. Dr Chen is truly a wonderful physician-surgeon and highly recommended. The staff, including receptionists to nursing were exceptional. Everyone was friendly, patient oriented, and enthusiastic. The facility is modern and clean, though it can be a bit chilly as are most medical facilities.

He explained the surgery well and what to expect. He has performed surgery on both of my hands. I have not experienced any numbness or pain since. I wish I would have done it sooner.

I saw Dr. Chen 10 years ago for carpal tunnel surgery on both hands. No problems since . So I had no hesitation going to him again. He and his staff were friendly, competent and professional. I would recommend him to anyone with a hand or wrist problem.

I am a existing patient from 2018 and 2019...Dr. Chen did both of my hand surgeries then. Today I went in for different issue with my hand & I wouldn’t go to anyone else! He’s an exceptional doctor and has a wonderful disposition. You can talk to him and he listens to your concerns and comes up with the best solutions. If you’re looking for a hand doctor and surgeon he’s THE BEST!

Dr Chen has done multiple trigger finger injections, trigger finger surgeries and bilateral carpal tunnel surgeries. He is a very kind and good Dr. I appreciate everything he has done for me, and I wouldn’t want to go anyplace else! I never have to wait long in office, which is nice! The staff is always nice, and his nurse Shellie is great!
