Patient Reviews
Oct 04, 2022
Dr Chen has been treating me for a thyroid problem for 6 or 7 years and with his help, my thyroid condition has been perfectly under control since I started coming to him when I was initially diagnosed. I have always found him to be kind, gentle and helpful, and he is always willing to answer any questions that I might have. I have also never found his staff to be anything other than pleasant and helpful and he and his staff seem to be pretty on time with scheduling. I've never had to wait for more than a few minutes when I arrive for my appointment, unlike many doctors that keep you waiting for 30 to 60 minutes before they call you in and then leave you for another 20 minutes sitting alone in the exam room! Overall for years I've been very pleased with all of my experiences with Dr Chen and with his office.
